fix(helm): address PR #447 reviewer feedback

Critical fix:
- deployment.yaml: Only reference OAuth credentials when clientId is set
- Fixes pod failure when using existingSecret without static OAuth creds
- Aligns deployment behavior with secret template logic

Previously, the deployment referenced OAuth credentials when either
clientId OR existingSecret was set. However, the secret template only
includes OAuth credentials when clientId is explicitly provided. This
caused pod failures when users provided an existingSecret for offline
access without static OAuth credentials (intending to use DCR).

The fix ensures OAuth env vars are only referenced when clientId is set,
matching the OAuth mode pattern and allowing DCR to work correctly with
existingSecret configurations.

Minor improvements:
- values.yaml: Clarify OAuth credentials are optional (uses DCR if not provided)

Testing verified all scenarios:
✅ Pass-through only (no offline access): No secrets/PVCs/OAuth vars
✅ Offline + DCR (no clientId): Secret with encryption key only, no OAuth vars
✅ Offline + static OAuth: Secret with all keys, OAuth vars present
✅ existingSecret without clientId: No auto secret, no OAuth vars (FIXED)

+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Human Readable Name",

+)
+
+# Create operations
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Create Resource",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        idempotentHint=False,  # Creates new resources each time
+        openWorldHint=True,
+    ),
+)
+
+# Update operations (with etag/version control)
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Update Resource",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        idempotentHint=False,  # ETag changes = different inputs
+        openWorldHint=True,
+    ),
+)
+
+# Delete operations
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Delete Resource",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        destructiveHint=True,   # Permanently deletes data
+        idempotentHint=True,    # Same end state if called repeatedly
+        openWorldHint=True,
+    ),
+)
+
+# HTTP PUT without version control (special case)
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Write File",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        idempotentHint=True,  # Same content = same end state
+        openWorldHint=True,
+    ),
+)
+```
+
+**Key Principles**:
+- **Idempotency**: Same inputs → same result. ETags change after updates, making them non-idempotent
+- **Destructive**: Operations that permanently delete/overwrite data
+- **Open World**: All Nextcloud tools access external service (openWorldHint=True)
+- **Titles**: Use human-readable names, not snake_case function names
+
+**See**: `docs/ADR-017-mcp-tool-annotations.md` for detailed rationale and examples

+
+## Version Management
+
+This monorepo uses commitizen for version management with **independent versioning** for three components:
+
+### Components
+
+| Component | Scope | Bump Command | Tag Example |
+|-----------|-------|--------------|-------------|
+| MCP Server | `mcp` or none | `./scripts/bump-mcp.sh` | `v0.54.0` |
+| Helm Chart | `helm` | `./scripts/bump-helm.sh` | `nextcloud-mcp-server-0.54.0` |
+| Astrolabe App | `astrolabe` | `./scripts/bump-astrolabe.sh` | `astrolabe-v0.2.0` |
+
+### Commit Message Format
+
+Use conventional commits with **scopes** to target specific components:
+
+```bash
+# MCP server changes
+feat(mcp): add calendar sync API
+fix(mcp): resolve authentication bug
+
+# Helm chart changes
+feat(helm): add resource limits
+docs(helm): update values documentation
+
+# Astrolabe app changes
+feat(astrolabe): add dark mode toggle
+fix(astrolabe): resolve search UI bug
+```
+
+**Unscoped commits** default to the MCP server:
+```bash
+feat: add new feature  # → MCP server (v0.54.0)
+```
+
+### Release Workflow
+
+#### 1. Make Changes with Scoped Commits
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "feat(astrolabe): add dark mode toggle"
+git commit -m "feat(helm): add ingress annotations"
+git commit -m "feat(mcp): add calendar sync"
+```
+
+#### 2. Bump Component Versions
+
+```bash
+# Bump MCP server (reads commits with scope=mcp or unscoped)
+./scripts/bump-mcp.sh
+# → Creates tag: v0.54.0
+# → Updates: pyproject.toml, Chart.yaml:appVersion
+
+# Bump Helm chart (reads commits with scope=helm)
+./scripts/bump-helm.sh
+# → Creates tag: nextcloud-mcp-server-0.54.0
+# → Updates: Chart.yaml:version
+
+# Bump Astrolabe (reads commits with scope=astrolabe)
+./scripts/bump-astrolabe.sh
+# → Creates tag: astrolabe-v0.2.0
+# → Updates: info.xml, package.json
+```
+
+#### 3. Push Tags
+
+```bash
+git push --follow-tags
+```
+
+### Changelog Filtering
+
+Each component maintains its own `CHANGELOG.md`:
+
+- **MCP Server**: `CHANGELOG.md` (root) - includes `feat(mcp):` and unscoped commits
+- **Helm Chart**: `charts/nextcloud-mcp-server/CHANGELOG.md` - includes `feat(helm):` only
+- **Astrolabe**: `third_party/astrolabe/CHANGELOG.md` - includes `feat(astrolabe):` only
+
+### Manual Version Bumps
+
+For specific increments:
+
+```bash
+# Patch bump (0.53.0 → 0.53.1)
+uv run cz bump --increment PATCH
+
+# Minor bump (0.53.0 → 0.54.0)
+uv run cz bump --increment MINOR
+
+# Major bump (0.53.0 → 1.0.0)
+uv run cz bump --increment MAJOR
+
+# For non-MCP components, use --config
+cd charts/nextcloud-mcp-server
+uv run cz --config .cz.toml bump --increment MINOR
+```
+
+### Versioning Philosophy
+
+- **MCP Server**: Follows PEP 440, `major_version_zero = true` (0.x.x for pre-1.0)
+- **Helm Chart**: Follows PEP 440, starts at 0.53.0 (continues from current)
+- **Astrolabe**: Follows PEP 440, `major_version_zero = true` (0.x.x for alpha/beta)
+
+### Chart.yaml Version vs appVersion
+
+The Helm chart has TWO version fields:
+
+- **`version`**: Chart packaging version (bumped by `feat(helm):`)
+  - Example: `0.53.0` → `0.54.0` when adding resource limits
+
+- **`appVersion`**: MCP server version being deployed (bumped by `feat(mcp):`)
+  - Example: `"0.53.0"` → `"0.54.0"` when MCP server releases
+
+This allows the chart to evolve independently from the application.

+Database Migrations for nextcloud-mcp-server
+============================================
+
+This directory contains Alembic database migrations for the token storage database.
+
+Structure
+---------
+- env.py: Alembic environment configuration
+- script.py.mako: Template for generating new migration files
+- versions/: Directory containing migration scripts
+
+Usage
+-----
+Migrations are managed via the CLI:
+
+    # Upgrade database to latest version
+    uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade
+
+    # Show current database version
+    uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current
+
+    # Show migration history
+    uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db history
+
+    # Create a new migration (developers only)
+    uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db migrate "description of changes"
+
+    # Downgrade database by one version (emergency use only)
+    uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db downgrade
+
+Direct Alembic Usage
+--------------------
+You can also use Alembic commands directly:
+

+
+Writing Migrations
+------------------
+Since we don't use SQLAlchemy models, migrations are written with raw SQL:
+
+    def upgrade() -> None:
+        op.execute("""
+            ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens
+            ADD COLUMN new_field TEXT
+        """)
+
+    def downgrade() -> None:
+        # SQLite doesn't support DROP COLUMN, use table recreation
+        op.execute("""
+            CREATE TABLE refresh_tokens_new AS
+            SELECT user_id, encrypted_token, ... FROM refresh_tokens
+        """)
+        op.execute("DROP TABLE refresh_tokens")
+        op.execute("ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens_new RENAME TO refresh_tokens")
+
+Migration File Naming
+---------------------
+Format: YYYYMMDD_HHMM_<revision>_<slug>.py
+Example: 20251217_2200_001_initial_schema.py
+
+Notes
+-----
+- Migrations run automatically when RefreshTokenStorage.initialize() is called
+- Existing databases are automatically stamped with the initial version
+- SQLite has limited ALTER TABLE support - complex changes require table recreation

+# ADR-017: Add MCP Tool Annotations for Enhanced Client UX
+
+## Status
+
+Implemented
+
+## Context
+
+The MCP Python SDK supports tool annotations that provide behavioral hints and improved UX to MCP clients. Currently, our 101 tools across 10 modules lack these annotations, resulting in:
+
+- Snake_case function names displayed to users (e.g., "nc_notes_create_note" instead of "Create Note")
+- No behavioral hints for clients about read-only, destructive, or idempotent operations
+- Missing parameter descriptions for better auto-completion and inline help
+- Clients cannot optimize caching, warn before destructive operations, or retry safely
+
+### Available MCP Annotations
+
+The MCP SDK provides three types of annotations:
+
+#### 1. Tool Decorator Parameters
+```python
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Human-Readable Name",
+    description="Tool description",  # Can also come from docstring
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(...),
+    icons=[Icon(...)]  # Optional visual icons
+)
+```
+
+#### 2. ToolAnnotations Behavioral Hints
+```python
+from mcp.types import ToolAnnotations
+
+ToolAnnotations(
+    title="Alternative Title",  # Decorator title takes precedence
+    readOnlyHint=True,         # Tool doesn't modify data
+    destructiveHint=True,       # Tool may delete/overwrite data
+    idempotentHint=True,        # Repeated calls with same args are safe
+    openWorldHint=True          # Interacts with external entities
+)
+```
+
+#### 3. Parameter Descriptions
+```python
+from pydantic import Field
+
+async def tool(
+    param: str = Field(description="What this parameter does"),
+    ctx: Context
+):
+```
+
+### Idempotency Analysis
+
+**Important**: Idempotency means calling with **the same inputs** produces the same result.
+
+**NOT Idempotent** (different inputs each call):
+- **Updates with etag**: `update_note(id=1, title="X", etag="abc")` → etag changes to "def"
+  - Second call: `update_note(id=1, title="X", etag="abc")` → fails (etag mismatch)
+  - Different input (stale etag) → different result (error)
+- **Creates**: `create_note(title="X")` → creates note 1
+  - Second call → creates note 2 (different result)
+- **Append operations**: `append_content(id=1, text="X")` → adds X once
+  - Second call → adds X again (different result)
+
+**Idempotent**:
+- **Deletes**: `delete_note(id=1)` → note deleted
+  - Second call → 404 or success (same end state: note doesn't exist)
+  - Note: May return different status code, but end state is identical
+- **Full resource PUT without version control**: `write_file(path="/test.txt", content="Hello")` → file has "Hello"
+  - Second call → file still has "Hello" (same end state)
+  - Example: `nc_webdav_write_file` uses HTTP PUT without etags/version control
+- **Set operations**: `set_property(id=1, value="X")` → property = X
+  - Second call → property still = X (same result)
+  - Note: Nextcloud updates with etags use version control, so not idempotent
+
+**Read-Only** (always idempotent, never destructive):
+- All list, search, get operations
+
+## Decision
+
+Add annotations to all 101 tools in three phases:
+
+### Phase 1: Titles (Quick Win)
+Add human-readable titles to all tools:
+
+```python
+@mcp.tool(title="Create Note")
+async def nc_notes_create_note(...):
+```
+
+**Effort**: 2-3 hours
+**Impact**: Immediate UX improvement
+
+### Phase 2: ToolAnnotations (Behavioral Hints)
+Add annotations based on corrected categorization:
+
+```python
+# Read-only tools
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Search Notes",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        readOnlyHint=True,
+        openWorldHint=True  # Nextcloud is external to MCP server
+    )
+)
+
+# Delete tools (idempotent: same end state)
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Delete Note",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        destructiveHint=True,
+        idempotentHint=True,  # Deleting deleted item = same end state
+        openWorldHint=True
+    )
+)
+
+# Create tools (not idempotent: creates multiple items)
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Create Note",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        idempotentHint=False,
+        openWorldHint=True
+    )
+)
+
+# Update tools with etag (not idempotent: etag changes)
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Update Note",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        idempotentHint=False,  # Etag required = different inputs each time
+        openWorldHint=True
+    )
+)
+
+# Append operations (not idempotent: adds content each time)
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Append to Note",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        idempotentHint=False,
+        openWorldHint=True
+    )
+)
+```
+
+**Effort**: 4-6 hours
+**Impact**: Better client behavior (caching, warnings, retry logic)
+
+### Phase 3: Parameter Descriptions
+Add Field() descriptions to parameters:
+
+```python
+from pydantic import Field
+
+@mcp.tool(title="Create Note", annotations=ToolAnnotations(idempotentHint=False))
+async def nc_notes_create_note(
+    title: str = Field(description="The title of the note"),
+    content: str = Field(description="Markdown content of the note"),
+    category: str = Field(description="Category or folder name for organizing"),
+    ctx: Context
+) -> CreateNoteResponse:
+```
+
+**Effort**: 6-8 hours
+**Impact**: Better auto-completion and inline help
+
+## Tool Categorization
+
+### Read-Only Tools (~40 tools)
+**Pattern**: List, search, get operations
+**Annotations**: `readOnlyHint=True`, `openWorldHint=True`
+
+Examples:
+- `nc_notes_search_notes` → "Search Notes"
+- `nc_webdav_list_directory` → "List Files and Directories"
+- `nc_calendar_list_calendars` → "List Calendars"
+- `nc_contacts_get_contact` → "Get Contact"
+- `nc_semantic_search` → "Semantic Search"
+- `check_logged_in` → "Check Server Login Status"
+
+### Create Tools (~20 tools)
+**Pattern**: Create new resources
+**Annotations**: `idempotentHint=False`, `openWorldHint=True`
+
+Examples:
+- `nc_notes_create_note` → "Create Note"
+- `nc_calendar_create_event` → "Create Calendar Event"
+- `nc_contacts_create_contact` → "Create Contact"
+- `deck_create_card` → "Create Kanban Card"
+- `nc_tables_create_row` → "Create Table Row"
+
+### Update Tools (~25 tools)
+**Pattern**: Modify existing resources with etag
+**Annotations**: `idempotentHint=False` (etag changes), `openWorldHint=True`
+
+Examples:
+- `nc_notes_update_note` → "Update Note"
+- `nc_calendar_update_event` → "Update Calendar Event"
+- `nc_contacts_update_contact` → "Update Contact"
+- `deck_update_card` → "Update Kanban Card"
+
+**Rationale**: Updates require etag, which changes after each update. Same parameters on second call will fail due to stale etag = NOT idempotent.
+
+### Append/Accumulate Tools (~5 tools)
+**Pattern**: Add content without replacing
+**Annotations**: `idempotentHint=False`, `openWorldHint=True`
+
+Examples:
+- `nc_notes_append_content` → "Append to Note"
+
+**Rationale**: Each call adds content, changing the result = NOT idempotent.
+
+### Delete Tools (~10 tools)
+**Pattern**: Remove resources
+**Annotations**: `destructiveHint=True`, `idempotentHint=True`, `openWorldHint=True`
+
+Examples:
+- `nc_notes_delete_note` → "Delete Note"
+- `nc_webdav_delete_resource` → "Delete File or Directory"
+- `nc_calendar_delete_event` → "Delete Calendar Event"
+- `nc_contacts_delete_contact` → "Delete Contact"
+
+**Rationale**: Deleting already-deleted item results in same end state (item doesn't exist) = idempotent. Status code may differ, but outcome is identical.
+
+### Special Cases
+
+#### OAuth Provisioning Tools
+```python
+# Not read-only but requires user interaction
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Grant Server Access to Nextcloud",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        readOnlyHint=False,
+        idempotentHint=False,  # Creates new OAuth session each time
+        openWorldHint=True
+    )
+)
+async def provision_nextcloud_access(ctx: Context):
+```
+
+#### Semantic Search (Closed World)
+```python
+@mcp.tool(
+    title="Semantic Search",
+    annotations=ToolAnnotations(
+        readOnlyHint=True,
+        openWorldHint=False  # Searches only indexed Nextcloud data
+    )
+)
+async def nc_semantic_search(query: str, ctx: Context):
+```
+
+**Rationale**: Semantic search only queries pre-indexed Nextcloud content, not the "open world" like web search would.
+
+## Tool Priority Matrix
+
+### Critical Priority (~2 tools)
+OAuth tools required for server functionality:
+- `provision_nextcloud_access` → "Grant Server Access to Nextcloud"
+- `check_logged_in` → "Check Server Login Status"
+
+### High Priority (~50 tools)
+Most commonly used modules:
+- **Notes** (14 tools): Create, read, update, delete notes
+- **WebDAV** (13 tools): File operations
+- **Calendar** (15 tools): Events and todos
+- **Semantic Search** (6 tools): AI-powered search
+- **Contacts** (9 tools): Address book operations
+
+### Medium Priority (~35 tools)
+Secondary functionality:
+- **Deck** (9 tools): Kanban boards
+- **Tables** (7 tools): Structured data
+- **Sharing** (5 tools): File sharing
+
+### Low Priority (~14 tools)
+Less frequently used:
+- **Cookbook** (8 tools): Recipe management
+- **News** (6 tools): RSS feeds
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Week 1: Phase 1 - Titles
+- Add human-readable titles to all 101 tools
+- Update tool name mapping in documentation
+- Manual test in MCP inspector
+
+### Week 2: Phase 2 - ToolAnnotations (High Priority)
+- Add annotations to Critical and High priority tools (~52 tools)
+- Focus on Notes, WebDAV, Calendar, Semantic, OAuth
+- Add unit tests validating annotation presence
+
+### Week 3: Phase 2 - ToolAnnotations (Medium/Low Priority)
+- Complete remaining tools (~49 tools)
+- Deck, Tables, Contacts, Cookbook, News
+- Update tool listings in README
+
+### Week 4: Phase 3 - Parameter Descriptions
+- Add Field() descriptions to Critical/High priority tools
+- Start with OAuth, Notes, WebDAV modules
+- Incremental completion over time
+
+## Benefits
+
+### For Users
+- **Clearer UI**: "Create Note" vs "nc_notes_create_note"
+- **Safety**: Warnings before destructive operations
+- **Better help**: Parameter descriptions in auto-completion
+- **Confidence**: Know which operations are safe to retry
+
+### For MCP Clients
+- **Caching**: Cache results from read-only tools
+- **Safety prompts**: Warn before destructiveHint=true
+- **Retry logic**: Safely retry idempotent operations
+- **UI organization**: Group by behavior (reads vs writes vs deletes)
+- **Performance**: Optimize based on hints
+
+### For Developers
+- **Self-documenting**: Behavior is explicit
+- **Consistency**: Standard patterns across codebase
+- **Testing**: Validate annotations match implementation
+- **Maintenance**: Clear expectations for new tools
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+- Immediate UX improvement with minimal effort
+- Clients can make smarter decisions
+- Self-documenting code
+- Follows MCP best practices
+
+### Negative
+- Initial effort to add annotations (12-15 hours total)
+- Must maintain annotations when adding new tools
+- Risk of incorrect annotations misleading clients
+
+### Neutral
+- Annotations are hints, not guarantees
+- Clients may ignore annotations
+- Backward compatible (additive change)
+
+### Mitigations
+- **Incorrect annotations**: Add tests validating behavior matches hints
+- **Maintenance burden**: Add to code review checklist and tool template
+- **Documentation**: Update CLAUDE.md with annotation guidelines
+
+## Examples
+
+### Complete Annotated Tool (Delete)
+
+```python

+        idempotentHint=True,    # Same end state (note doesn't exist)
+        openWorldHint=True      # Nextcloud is external
+    )
+)
+@require_scopes("notes:write")
+@instrument_tool
+async def nc_notes_delete_note(
+    note_id: int = Field(description="The ID of the note to delete permanently"),
+    ctx: Context
+) -> DeleteNoteResponse:
+    """Delete a note permanently (requires notes:write scope)"""
+    client = await get_client(ctx)
+    # ... implementation ...
+```
+
+### Complete Annotated Tool (Update)
+
+```python

+    )
+)
+@require_scopes("notes:write")
+@instrument_tool
+async def nc_notes_update_note(

+    """
+    client = await get_client(ctx)
+    # ... implementation ...
+```
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### Unit Tests
+Add tests validating annotation presence and correctness:
+
+```python
+def test_notes_tools_have_annotations():
+    """Verify all notes tools have appropriate annotations."""
+    tools = get_registered_tools(mcp)
+
+    # Check create tool
+    create_tool = tools["nc_notes_create_note"]
+    assert create_tool.title == "Create Note"
+    assert create_tool.annotations.idempotentHint is False
+
+    # Check delete tool
+    delete_tool = tools["nc_notes_delete_note"]
+    assert delete_tool.title == "Delete Note"
+    assert delete_tool.annotations.destructiveHint is True
+    assert delete_tool.annotations.idempotentHint is True
+
+    # Check read-only tool
+    search_tool = tools["nc_notes_search_notes"]
+    assert search_tool.title == "Search Notes"
+    assert search_tool.annotations.readOnlyHint is True
+```
+
+### Integration Tests
+- Verify existing tests pass with annotations
+- Manual testing in MCP inspector/client
+
+### Documentation Updates
+- Update README tool listings with new titles
+- Add annotation guidelines to CLAUDE.md
+- Include examples in developer documentation
+
+## Resolved Questions
+
+1. **WebDAV write_file idempotency** (Resolved: 2025-12-11)
+   - **Decision**: Mark as `idempotentHint=True`
+   - **Rationale**: Uses HTTP PUT without version control. Writing same content to same path repeatedly produces identical end state, which is the definition of idempotency in HTTP semantics.
+
+2. **Semantic search openWorldHint** (Resolved: 2025-12-11)
+   - **Decision**: Mark as `openWorldHint=True`
+   - **Rationale**: For consistency with other Nextcloud tools. While the data being searched is "indexed/internal", Nextcloud itself is external to the MCP server. The fact that data is indexed is an implementation detail, not a fundamental difference from other Nextcloud queries.
+
+3. **Read-only with side effects**: Should tools that log analytics still be readOnlyHint=true?
+   - **Decision**: Yes. Logging/analytics are non-visible side effects that don't change user-observable state. Read-only refers to data modifications that affect the user's content.
+
+## Future Considerations
+
+1. **Icons**: Visual icons for tools (requires design work, deferred to future ADR)
+2. **Parameter descriptions**: Add Pydantic `Field(description=...)` for better auto-completion (Phase 3, future work)

+# ADR-020: Deployment Modes and Configuration Validation
+
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Date:** 2025-12-20
+**Deciders:** Development Team
+**Related:** ADR-002 (Vector Sync), ADR-004 (Progressive Consent), ADR-019 (Multi-user BasicAuth)
+
+## Context
+
+The MCP server supports multiple deployment scenarios with different authentication methods, storage backends, and feature sets. Over time, the configuration system evolved to support ~500+ possible combinations across deployment modes, authentication patterns, and feature toggles. This complexity made it difficult to:
+
+1. Understand what configuration is required for a given deployment
+2. Debug configuration errors (validation scattered across multiple files)
+3. Provide helpful error messages when configuration is invalid
+4. Maintain clear boundaries between deployment modes
+
+**Problems Identified:**
+- No single source of truth for "what config is required for mode X"
+- Validation happening at 4+ different points (Settings.__post_init__, setup_oauth_config(), context helpers, starlette_lifespan)
+- Startup sequence unclear (OAuth setup before FastMCP creation, sync initialization errors)
+- Error messages generic ("X is required") without explaining which deployment mode triggered the requirement
+- Multiple overlapping decision trees (deployment mode, auth mode, features)
+
+## Decision
+
+We formalize five distinct deployment modes with explicit configuration requirements and implement centralized configuration validation.
+
+### Deployment Modes
+
+#### 1. Single-User BasicAuth
+
+**Use Case:** Personal Nextcloud instance, local development
+
+**Required Configuration:**
+```bash
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=http://localhost:8080
+NEXTCLOUD_USERNAME=admin
+NEXTCLOUD_PASSWORD=password  # Or app password
+```
+
+**Optional Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Vector sync (semantic search)
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true
+QDRANT_LOCATION=/path/to/qdrant  # Or QDRANT_URL for remote
+
+# Embeddings (optional - Simple provider used as fallback)
+OLLAMA_BASE_URL=http://localhost:11434
+OLLAMA_EMBEDDING_MODEL=nomic-embed-text
+
+# Document processing
+DOCUMENT_CHUNK_SIZE=512
+DOCUMENT_CHUNK_OVERLAP=50
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Single shared NextcloudClient created at startup
+- No OAuth infrastructure needed
+- No multi-user support
+- Vector sync runs as single-user background task
+- Admin UI available at /app
+
+---
+
+#### 2. Multi-User BasicAuth Pass-Through
+
+**Use Case:** Internal deployment where users provide their own credentials, no background sync needed
+
+**Required Configuration:**
+```bash
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=http://nextcloud.example.com
+ENABLE_MULTI_USER_BASIC_AUTH=true
+```
+
+**Optional Configuration:**
+```bash
+# For background sync (requires app passwords from Astrolabe)
+ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true
+TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY=<key>
+TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/path/to/tokens.db
+NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID=<client-id>
+NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET=<client-secret>
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true
+# ... plus Qdrant and embedding config
+```
+
+**Conditional Requirements:**
+- If `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true`: requires `NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID`, `NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET`, `TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY`, `TOKEN_STORAGE_DB`
+- If `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true`: requires `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true`
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- No OAuth for client authentication (uses BasicAuth in request headers)
+- BasicAuthMiddleware extracts credentials from Authorization header
+- Client created per-request from extracted credentials
+- Optional: Background sync using app passwords (via Astrolabe API)
+- Admin UI available at /app
+
+---
+
+#### 3. OAuth Single-Audience (Default)
+
+**Use Case:** Multi-user deployment with OAuth authentication, tokens work for both MCP and Nextcloud
+
+**Required Configuration:**
+```bash
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=http://nextcloud.example.com
+# No NEXTCLOUD_USERNAME/PASSWORD (triggers OAuth mode)
+```
+
+**Auto-Configured:**
+- OIDC discovery URL: `{NEXTCLOUD_HOST}/.well-known/openid-configuration`
+- Client credentials: Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) if available
+- Token storage: SQLite at `~/.oauth/clients.db`
+
+**Optional Configuration:**
+```bash
+# Static client credentials (instead of DCR)
+NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID=<client-id>

+
+**Conditional Requirements:**
+- If `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true`: requires `TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY`, `TOKEN_STORAGE_DB`
+- If `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true`: requires `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true`
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Tokens contain both `aud: ["mcp-server", "nextcloud"]`
+- Pass token through to Nextcloud APIs (no exchange)
+- Client created per-request from token in Authorization header
+- Background sync uses refresh tokens (if offline_access enabled)
+- Admin UI available at /app
+
+---
+
+#### 4. OAuth Token Exchange (RFC 8693)
+
+**Use Case:** Multi-user deployment where MCP token is separate from Nextcloud token
+
+**Required Configuration:**
+```bash
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=http://nextcloud.example.com
+ENABLE_TOKEN_EXCHANGE=true
+# No NEXTCLOUD_USERNAME/PASSWORD (triggers OAuth mode)
+```
+
+**Optional Configuration:**
+- Same as OAuth Single-Audience, plus:
+```bash
+TOKEN_EXCHANGE_CACHE_TTL=300  # Cache exchanged tokens
+```
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- Tokens contain only `aud: "mcp-server"`
+- MCP server exchanges token for Nextcloud token via RFC 8693
+- Exchanged tokens cached per-user
+- Client created per-request using exchanged token
+- Background sync uses refresh tokens (if offline_access enabled)
+
+---
+
+#### 5. Smithery Stateless
+
+**Use Case:** Multi-tenant SaaS deployment via Smithery platform
+
+**Required Configuration:**
+- None! Configuration comes from session URL params: `?nextcloud_url=...&username=...&app_password=...`
+
+**Forbidden Configuration:**
+- Must NOT set: `NEXTCLOUD_HOST`, `NEXTCLOUD_USERNAME`, `NEXTCLOUD_PASSWORD`, `ENABLE_MULTI_USER_BASIC_AUTH`, `ENABLE_TOKEN_EXCHANGE`, `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS`, `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED`, `NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID`, `NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET`
+
+**Characteristics:**
+- No persistent storage (stateless)
+- Client created per-request from session config
+- No vector sync (disabled)
+- No admin UI (no /app routes)
+- No OAuth infrastructure
+
+---
+
+### Configuration Validation
+
+**Implementation:** `nextcloud_mcp_server/config_validators.py`
+
+**Key Functions:**
+```python
+def detect_auth_mode(settings: Settings) -> AuthMode:
+    """Detect authentication mode from configuration.
+
+    Priority (most specific to most general):
+    1. Smithery (explicit flag)
+    2. Token exchange (most specific OAuth mode)
+    3. Multi-user BasicAuth
+    4. Single-user BasicAuth
+    5. OAuth single-audience (default OAuth mode)
+    """
+
+def validate_configuration(settings: Settings) -> tuple[AuthMode, list[str]]:
+    """Validate configuration for detected mode.
+
+    Returns:
+        Tuple of (detected_mode, list_of_errors)
+        Empty list means valid configuration.
+    """
+```
+
+**Validation Rules:**
+- **Required variables:** Must be set and non-empty
+- **Forbidden variables:** Must NOT be set (or must be False for booleans)
+- **Conditional requirements:** If feature X is enabled, requires variables Y and Z
+
+**Error Messages:**
+```
+Configuration validation failed for {mode} mode:
+  - [{mode}] Missing required configuration: NEXTCLOUD_HOST
+  - [{mode}] ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS must be enabled when VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED is true
+
+Mode: {mode}
+Description: {mode_description}
+
+Required configuration:
+  - VAR1
+  - VAR2
+
+Optional configuration:
+  - VAR3
+  - VAR4
+
+Conditional requirements:
+  When FEATURE is enabled:
+    - VAR5
+    - VAR6
+```
+
+**Integration:**
+- Validation runs at app startup in `get_app()` (app.py:1048-1062)
+- All errors reported before any initialization begins
+- Mode-specific error messages explain requirements
+- Validation uses the same Settings object used throughout the app

+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+1. **Clarity:** Single function to detect mode from config
+2. **Validation:** All config validated upfront with helpful errors
+3. **Debugging:** Clear logs showing "Running in X mode with config Y"
+4. **Maintenance:** Mode-specific logic can be isolated
+5. **Documentation:** Clear mapping of mode → required config
+6. **Error Messages:** Context-aware ("X is required for Y mode")
+7. **Testing:** Each mode testable in isolation
+
+### Negative
+
+1. **Migration:** Existing invalid configurations will now fail at startup
+2. **Flexibility:** Less flexibility in configuration combinations
+3. **Strictness:** Some previously-working combinations may be rejected
+
+### Neutral
+
+1. **Backward Compatibility:** Valid configurations continue to work
+2. **Mode Detection:** Automatic based on config (no explicit mode selection)
+3. **Default Mode:** OAuth single-audience when no credentials provided
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+### Embedding Provider Validation
+
+Originally, validation required either `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` or `OPENAI_API_KEY` when vector sync was enabled. This was too strict because the Simple provider is always available as a fallback (ADR-015). The validation was removed to allow vector sync without explicit provider configuration.
+
+### Variable Scoping Issues
+
+During implementation, several Python variable scoping issues were discovered in `app.py`:
+- Local variable assignments in `starlette_lifespan()` shadowed outer scope variables
+- Fixed by using unique variable names (e.g., `nextcloud_host_for_context`, `basic_auth_storage`)
+- Removed redundant `settings = get_settings()` call (re-used outer scope)
+
+### Docker Compose Configuration
+
+The `mcp-oauth` service configuration was updated to remove `ENABLE_MULTI_USER_BASIC_AUTH=true` which conflicted with its intended OAuth mode. The service now runs in OAuth single-audience mode with vector sync using the Simple embedding provider as fallback.
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Tests
+
+`tests/unit/test_config_validators.py` provides comprehensive coverage:
+- Mode detection with priority ordering (7 tests)
+- Single-user BasicAuth validation (8 tests)
+- Multi-user BasicAuth validation (7 tests)
+- OAuth single-audience validation (6 tests)
+- OAuth token exchange validation (3 tests)
+- Smithery validation (4 tests)
+- Mode summary generation (3 tests)
+- Edge cases (3 tests)
+
+**Total: 41 tests, all passing**
+
+### Integration Tests
+
+Integration tests verify that:
+- Each mode starts successfully with valid configuration
+- Invalid configurations fail with clear error messages
+- Existing deployments continue to work

+# ADR-021: Configuration Consolidation and Simplification
+
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Date:** 2025-12-21
+**Deciders:** Development Team
+**Related:** ADR-020 (Deployment Modes), ADR-002 (Vector Sync), ADR-004 (Progressive Consent)
+
+## Context
+
+The configuration system has grown complex with overlapping concerns that make it difficult for users to switch between deployment modes and understand configuration dependencies.
+
+### Problems Identified
+
+1. **Confusing variable names don't reflect purpose**:
+   - `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS` - Actually controls refresh token storage for background operations, not general "offline" capabilities
+   - `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED` - Controls semantic search background indexing (implementation detail, not user-facing feature name)
+   - Users struggle to understand what these variables actually control
+
+2. **Redundant configuration requirements**:
+   - Multi-user semantic search requires setting BOTH `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true` AND `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true`
+   - The dependency is one-way (semantic search needs background ops, but background ops don't need semantic search)
+   - Users must understand internal implementation details to configure a user-facing feature
+
+3. **Implicit mode detection creates ambiguity**:
+   - Five deployment modes detected via priority-based logic
+   - Users can't easily predict which mode will activate
+   - Configuration errors don't clearly indicate which mode triggered the requirement
+
+4. **OIDC_CLIENT_ID vs NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID confusion**:
+   - Investigation revealed these are NOT actually overlapping (`OIDC_CLIENT_ID` is test-only)
+   - However, their similar names create confusion
+
+### Current Configuration Complexity
+
+**Example: Multi-user OAuth with semantic search**:
+```bash
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=https://nextcloud.example.com
+ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true      # Why is this needed?
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true        # And this separately?
+QDRANT_URL=http://qdrant:6333
+TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY=<key>
+TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/path/to/tokens.db
+```
+
+Users must understand:
+- Semantic search requires background token storage (ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS)
+- Background token storage requires encryption keys
+- The relationship between ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS and VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED
+- Which deployment mode these settings will activate
+
+## Decision
+
+We consolidate overlapping functionality and add explicit mode selection while maintaining 100% backward compatibility.
+
+### 1. Automatic Dependency Resolution
+
+**Make ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH the primary control** that automatically enables required dependencies:
+
+**New behavior**:
+```python
+@property
+def enable_background_operations(self) -> bool:
+    """Background operations - auto-enabled by semantic search in multi-user modes."""
+    # Check new names first
+    explicit = os.getenv("ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS", "").lower() == "true"
+    # Fall back to old name with deprecation warning
+    legacy = os.getenv("ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS", "").lower() == "true"
+    # Auto-enable if semantic search needs it
+    auto_enabled = self.enable_semantic_search and self.is_multi_user_mode()
+
+    return explicit or legacy or auto_enabled
+
+@property
+def enable_semantic_search(self) -> bool:
+    """Semantic search - renamed from VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED."""
+    new_value = os.getenv("ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH", "").lower() == "true"
+    old_value = os.getenv("VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED", "").lower() == "true"
+    return new_value or old_value
+```
+
+**Result**: Users set `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true` and the system automatically enables background token storage when needed.
+
+### 2. Explicit Mode Selection (Optional)
+
+Add `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` environment variable to remove detection ambiguity:
+
+```bash
+# Optional: Explicitly declare deployment mode
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience
+
+# Valid values: single_user_basic, multi_user_basic,
+#               oauth_single_audience, oauth_token_exchange, smithery
+```
+
+**Detection logic**:
+1. If `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` is set → validate and use it
+2. Otherwise → use priority-based auto-detection (existing behavior)
+3. Validate explicit mode doesn't conflict with detected mode
+
+### 3. Simplified User Experience
+
+**Before**:
+```bash
+# Multi-user OAuth with semantic search
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=https://nextcloud.example.com
+ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true      # Confusing
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true        # Why both?
+QDRANT_URL=http://qdrant:6333
+TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY=<key>
+TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/path/to/tokens.db
+```
+
+**After**:
+```bash
+# Multi-user OAuth with semantic search
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=https://nextcloud.example.com
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience  # Explicit (optional)
+ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true                # Auto-enables background ops
+QDRANT_URL=http://qdrant:6333
+TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY=<key>
+TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/path/to/tokens.db
+```
+
+**Benefits**:
+- 2 fewer variables to understand/set
+- Clear intent ("I want semantic search")
+- Explicit mode declaration (optional)
+- All existing configs continue working
+
+### 4. Variable Naming Strategy
+
+**Deprecated (but still functional)**:
+- `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS` → Renamed to `ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS`
+- `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED` → Renamed to `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH`
+
+**No change needed**:
+- `VECTOR_SYNC_SCAN_INTERVAL` - Implementation tuning parameter (keep as-is)
+- `VECTOR_SYNC_PROCESSOR_WORKERS` - Implementation tuning parameter (keep as-is)
+- `VECTOR_SYNC_QUEUE_MAX_SIZE` - Implementation tuning parameter (keep as-is)
+
+**Rationale**: Only rename user-facing feature flags, not internal tuning parameters.
+
+### 5. Backward Compatibility
+
+**Support both old and new names for minimum 2 major versions**:
+
+```python
+@property
+def enable_semantic_search(self) -> bool:
+    new_value = os.getenv("ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH", "").lower() == "true"
+    old_value = os.getenv("VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED", "").lower() == "true"
+
+    if new_value and old_value:
+        logger.warning(
+            "Both ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH and VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED are set. "
+            "Using ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH. VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED is deprecated."
+        )
+
+    if old_value and not new_value:
+        logger.warning(
+            "VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED is deprecated. Please use ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH instead."
+        )
+
+    return new_value or old_value
+```
+
+**Deprecation timeline**:
+- v0.6.0: Add new variables, deprecate old ones (both work with warnings)
+- v1.0.0: Remove old variables (breaking change, well-announced)
+- Minimum 2 major versions of support (12+ months)
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+1. **Reduced cognitive load**: Users set `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true` instead of understanding internal dependencies
+2. **Clearer intent**: Variable names reflect user-facing features, not implementation details
+3. **Explicit mode control**: `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` removes detection ambiguity
+4. **Better onboarding**: New users see simpler configuration in env.sample
+5. **Improved error messages**: Validation can suggest "set MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=X" instead of relying on implicit detection
+6. **No breaking changes**: All existing configurations continue working
+
+### Negative
+
+1. **Transition period complexity**: Both old and new names supported for 2+ versions
+2. **Documentation burden**: All docs must be updated to show new approach
+3. **Test coverage expansion**: Must test both old and new variable names in all modes
+4. **Migration effort**: Existing deployments should eventually migrate (optional but recommended)
+
+### Neutral
+
+1. **Same functionality**: No new features, just better organization
+2. **Same validation**: Underlying requirements unchanged (e.g., semantic search still needs Qdrant)
+3. **Same performance**: No runtime performance impact
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Phase 1: Configuration Consolidation (v0.6.0)
+
+**Files to modify**:
+- `nextcloud_mcp_server/config.py` - Add property-based deprecation with auto-enablement
+- `nextcloud_mcp_server/config_validators.py` - Simplify validation (semantic search no longer requires explicit background operations setting)
+- `nextcloud_mcp_server/app.py` - Add informative logging for auto-enablement
+- `tests/unit/test_config_validators.py` - Add auto-enablement tests
+- `docs/configuration-migration-v2.md` - Create migration guide
+
+**Key changes**:
+1. `enable_background_operations` property auto-enables when `enable_semantic_search=true` in multi-user modes
+2. `enable_semantic_search` property accepts both `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH` and `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED`
+3. Smart logging when auto-enablement occurs or deprecated variables used
+4. Validation simplified to remove redundant requirements
+
+### Phase 2: Explicit Mode Selection (v0.6.0)
+
+**Files to modify**:
+- `nextcloud_mcp_server/config.py` - Add `deployment_mode` field
+- `nextcloud_mcp_server/config_validators.py` - Check explicit mode first, fall back to auto-detection
+- `tests/unit/test_config_validators.py` - Test mode override and conflict detection
+- `docs/configuration.md` - Document mode selection
+
+**Key changes**:
+1. Add `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` environment variable (optional)
+2. Mode detection checks explicit mode first, then auto-detects
+3. Validate explicit mode doesn't conflict with detected mode
+4. Better error messages referencing explicit mode setting
+
+### Phase 3: env.sample Reorganization (v0.6.0)
+
+**Files to create/modify**:
+- `env.sample` - Reorganize by deployment mode
+- `env.sample.single-user` - Simplest config template
+- `env.sample.oauth-multi-user` - Multi-user template showing consolidation
+- `env.sample.oauth-advanced` - Token exchange mode template
+- `README.md` - Update Quick Start to reference templates
+
+**Key changes**:
+1. Group related settings by deployment mode
+2. Show simplified configuration (only essential variables)
+3. Document automatic dependencies inline
+4. Provide mode-specific quick-start templates
+
+### Phase 4: Documentation Updates (v0.7.0)
+
+**Files to modify**:
+- `docs/configuration.md` - Lead with consolidated approach
+- `docs/authentication.md` - Update mode guidance with `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE`
+- `docs/troubleshooting.md` - Add consolidation troubleshooting section
+- `docs/configuration-migration-v2.md` - Expand with comprehensive examples
+- `docs/ADR-020-deployment-modes-and-configuration-validation.md` - Update configuration matrix
+- All other ADRs - Update variable references
+
+**Key changes**:
+1. Update all examples to use new variable names
+2. Add before/after migration examples
+3. Document automatic dependency resolution
+4. Add mode selection decision tree diagram
+
+## Validation Strategy
+
+### Test Coverage Requirements
+
+**Backward compatibility tests**:
+- Old variable names still work (ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS, VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED)
+- New variable names work (ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS, ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH)
+- Setting both old and new triggers deprecation warning but works correctly
+- All 41 existing config validation tests pass
+
+**Auto-enablement tests**:
+- `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true` in OAuth mode → `enable_background_operations=true`
+- `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true` in single-user mode → `enable_background_operations=false` (not needed)
+- `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=false` → `enable_background_operations=false` (unless explicitly set)
+
+**Mode selection tests**:
+- `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience` → mode correctly detected
+- `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` conflicts with detected mode → validation error
+- No `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` → auto-detection works as before
+
+## Success Metrics
+
+**Immediate** (v0.6.0 release):
+- Zero breaking changes in existing deployments
+- All 41 config validation tests pass
+- New users report clearer configuration process
+
+**Medium-term** (6 months after v0.6.0):
+- 80% of new deployments use new variable names
+- Mode selection errors decrease by 50%
+- Support requests about configuration decrease
+
+**Long-term** (12+ months):
+- 90% of deployments migrated to new names
+- Old variable names can be safely removed in v1.0.0
+- Configuration-related issues in issue tracker decrease
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alternative 1: Just Rename Variables
+
+**Rejected**: User feedback: "There's no reason to just rename variables without consolidating functionality"
+
+This would make names clearer but wouldn't reduce the number of variables users need to set. The real problem is requiring users to set both ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS and VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED when they just want semantic search.
+
+### Alternative 2: Remove ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS Entirely
+
+**Rejected**: Advanced users need background operations without semantic search
+
+Some deployments might want background token storage for future features (background Deck sync, background Calendar sync, etc.) without enabling semantic search. Keeping ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS (renamed) allows this.
+
+### Alternative 3: Always Auto-Enable Background Operations
+
+**Rejected**: Single-user mode doesn't need background token storage
+
+Auto-enablement is only needed in multi-user modes. Single-user mode uses a shared client with BasicAuth, so background token storage is unnecessary. Always enabling it would waste resources and create confusing log messages.
+
+### Alternative 4: Require All New Names Immediately
+
+**Rejected**: Breaking change would affect all existing deployments
+
+Forcing migration to new variable names in v0.6.0 would break every existing deployment. Supporting both old and new names with deprecation warnings provides a smooth migration path.

+# MCP 1.23.x DNS Rebinding Protection Fix
+
+## Problem
+
+MCP Python SDK 1.23.0 introduced **automatic DNS rebinding protection** that breaks containerized deployments (Kubernetes, Docker) when the protection is unintentionally auto-enabled.
+
+### Root Cause
+
+From `mcp/server/fastmcp/server.py:177-183` in the Python SDK:
+
+```python
+# Auto-enable DNS rebinding protection for localhost (IPv4 and IPv6)
+if transport_security is None and host in ("127.0.0.1", "localhost", "::1"):
+    transport_security = TransportSecuritySettings(
+        enable_dns_rebinding_protection=True,
+        allowed_hosts=["127.0.0.1:*", "localhost:*", "[::1]:*"],
+        allowed_origins=["http://127.0.0.1:*", "http://localhost:*", "http://[::1]:*"],
+    )
+```
+
+### What Was Happening
+
+1. **FastMCP initialization** in `app.py` didn't pass `host` or `transport_security` parameters
+2. **Defaults applied**: `host="127.0.0.1"`, `transport_security=None`
+3. **Auto-enablement triggered**: Condition `transport_security is None and host == "127.0.0.1"` was TRUE
+4. **Protection activated** with `allowed_hosts=["127.0.0.1:*", "localhost:*", "[::1]:*"]`
+5. **Kubernetes requests rejected**: `Host: nextcloud-mcp-server.default.svc.cluster.local:8000` didn't match allowed hosts
+
+### Why `--host 0.0.0.0` Didn't Help
+
+The `--host` CLI flag (used in Dockerfile/docker-compose) controls **uvicorn's bind address**, NOT the **FastMCP `host` parameter**. These are separate concerns:
+
+- **Uvicorn bind address** (`--host 0.0.0.0`): Where the HTTP server listens
+- **FastMCP host parameter** (defaulted to `"127.0.0.1"`): Used for auto-enablement logic
+
+## Solution
+
+Explicitly disable DNS rebinding protection by passing `transport_security=TransportSecuritySettings(enable_dns_rebinding_protection=False)` to all FastMCP instances.
+
+### Changes Made
+
+Modified `nextcloud_mcp_server/app.py`:
+
+1. **Import** `TransportSecuritySettings` from `mcp.server.transport_security`
+2. **Updated all three FastMCP initializations**:
+   - OAuth mode (line 1015)
+   - Smithery stateless mode (line 1030)
+   - BasicAuth mode (line 1040)
+
+Each now includes:
+```python
+transport_security=TransportSecuritySettings(enable_dns_rebinding_protection=False)
+```
+
+## Impact
+
+### ✅ What This Fixes
+
+- **Kubernetes deployments**: Requests with k8s service DNS names now work
+- **Docker deployments**: Port-mapped requests (localhost:8000 → container) now work
+- **Reverse proxy deployments**: Proxied requests with various Host headers now work
+- **Ingress controllers**: Requests via ingress hostnames now work
+
+### 🔒 Security Considerations
+
+DNS rebinding protection defends against attacks where:
+1. Attacker controls a DNS domain (e.g., `evil.com`)
+2. DNS initially resolves to attacker's IP
+3. After victim's browser caches the origin, DNS changes to victim's localhost
+4. Attacker's page can now make requests to victim's localhost services
+
+**Why it's safe to disable for this deployment:**
+
+1. **OAuth authentication required** in production deployments (ADR-002, ADR-004)
+2. **Network-level isolation** in containerized environments (k8s network policies, Docker networks)
+3. **MCP is server-to-server**, not exposed to browsers (no CORS concerns)
+4. **Host header validation inappropriate** for multi-tenant k8s environments
+
+If DNS rebinding protection is needed for specific deployments, it can be re-enabled with a custom allowed hosts list:
+
+```python
+transport_security=TransportSecuritySettings(
+    enable_dns_rebinding_protection=True,
+    allowed_hosts=[
+        "nextcloud-mcp-server.default.svc.cluster.local:*",
+        "mcp.example.com:*",
+        # Add all your expected Host header values
+    ]
+)
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+- ✅ Ruff linting passes
+- ✅ Type checking passes (pre-existing warnings unrelated)
+- ✅ Module imports successfully
+- ✅ Compatible with MCP 1.23.x

+
+**Key Changes:**
+- `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED` → `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH`
+- `ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS` → `ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS`
+- New: `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` for explicit mode selection
+- Automatic dependency resolution: semantic search auto-enables background operations
+
+**Backward Compatibility:**
+- Old variable names still work in v0.58.0+
+- Deprecation warnings logged when old names used
+- Old names will be removed in v1.0.0
+

+3. Optionally add `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_token_exchange`
+4. Restart server
+
+---
+
+## Understanding Automatic Dependency Resolution
+
+### How It Works
+
+In v0.58.0+, the server uses smart dependency resolution:
+
+```python
+# In multi-user modes (OAuth, Multi-User BasicAuth):
+if ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH == true:
+    background_operations = automatically enabled
+    refresh_tokens = automatically requested
+    token_storage = required (TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY, TOKEN_STORAGE_DB)
+    oauth_credentials = required (for app password retrieval)
+```
+
+**What this means:**
+- ✅ Set `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true`
+- ✅ Provide required infrastructure (Qdrant, Ollama, encryption key)
+- ✅ System automatically enables background operations
+- ❌ No need to set `ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS` separately
+
+### When Automatic Enablement Happens
+
+| Deployment Mode | Semantic Search Enabled | Background Operations Auto-Enabled? |
+|----------------|------------------------|-----------------------------------|
+| Single-User BasicAuth | ✅ | ❌ No (not needed) |
+| Multi-User BasicAuth | ✅ | ✅ Yes |
+| OAuth Single-Audience | ✅ | ✅ Yes |
+| OAuth Token Exchange | ✅ | ✅ Yes |
+| Smithery Stateless | N/A (not supported) | N/A |
+
+### When to Explicitly Set ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS
+
+Only needed when you want background operations **without** semantic search:
+
+```bash
+# Example: OAuth mode with background operations but NO semantic search
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=https://nextcloud.example.com
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience
+
+# Explicitly enable background operations for future features
+ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS=true
+
+TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY=your-key-here
+TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/app/data/tokens.db
+
+# Semantic search disabled
+ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=false
+```
+
+---
+
+## Explicit Mode Selection
+
+### Why Use MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE?
+
+**Benefits:**
+- ✅ Removes ambiguity about which mode is active
+- ✅ Validation errors reference specific mode requirements
+- ✅ Catches configuration mistakes early
+- ✅ Self-documenting configuration
+
+**Example:**
+```bash
+# Without explicit mode:
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=https://nextcloud.example.com
+# Is this OAuth or Multi-User BasicAuth? Not immediately clear.
+
+# With explicit mode:
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience
+NEXTCLOUD_HOST=https://nextcloud.example.com
+# Clear: This is OAuth mode
+```
+
+### Valid Mode Values
+
+| Mode Value | Description |
+|-----------|-------------|
+| `single_user_basic` | Single-user with username/password |
+| `multi_user_basic` | Multi-user with BasicAuth pass-through |
+| `oauth_single_audience` | Multi-user OAuth (recommended) |
+| `oauth_token_exchange` | Multi-user OAuth with token exchange |
+| `smithery` | Smithery platform deployment |
+
+### Mode Detection Priority
+
+When `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` is set:
+1. ✅ Explicit mode is used
+2. ✅ Server validates configuration matches explicit mode
+3. ❌ Auto-detection is skipped
+
+When `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` is NOT set:
+1. ✅ Auto-detection runs (existing behavior)
+2. ✅ Priority: Smithery → Token Exchange → Multi-User BasicAuth → Single-User BasicAuth → OAuth Single-Audience
+
+---
+
+## Validation and Error Messages
+
+### Old Validation (v0.57.x)
+
+```
+Error: [multi_user_basic] ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS is required when VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED is enabled
+```
+
+**Problem:** User must understand internal dependency relationship
+
+### New Validation (v0.58.0+)
+
+```
+Error: [multi_user_basic] TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY is required when ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH is enabled
+```
+
+**Benefit:** Clear what's needed, no mention of internal ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS flag
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting Migration
+
+### Issue: Deprecation Warning After Migration
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+WARNING: VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED is deprecated. Please use ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH instead.
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Check for `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED` in `.env` file
+2. Replace with `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH`
+3. Search for any scripts/CI configs using old name
+4. Restart server
+
+### Issue: Both Old and New Names Set
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+WARNING: Both ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH and VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED are set. Using ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH.
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+1. Remove `VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED` from `.env`
+2. Keep `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH`
+3. Restart server
+
+### Issue: Missing Required Dependencies
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+Error: [oauth_single_audience] TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY is required when ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH is enabled
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+When semantic search is enabled in multi-user modes, you need:
+- `TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY` - Generate with: `python -c "from cryptography.fernet import Fernet; print(Fernet.generate_key().decode())"`
+- `TOKEN_STORAGE_DB` - Path to SQLite database (e.g., `/app/data/tokens.db`)
+- `NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID` and `NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET` - For app password retrieval
+
+### Issue: Unexpected Mode Detected
+
+**Symptom:**
+Server activates `oauth_single_audience` mode when you expected `multi_user_basic`
+
+**Solution:**
+Add explicit mode declaration:
+```bash
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=multi_user_basic
+ENABLE_MULTI_USER_BASIC_AUTH=true
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing Your Migration
+
+### Step 1: Verify Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Set new variable names in .env
+cat .env | grep -E "(ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH|ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS|MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE)"
+```
+
+### Step 2: Check for Old Variable Names
+
+```bash
+# Should return nothing after migration
+cat .env | grep -E "(VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED|ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS)"
+```
+
+### Step 3: Start Server and Check Logs
+
+```bash
+# Start server
+docker-compose up mcp
+
+# Look for:
+# 1. No deprecation warnings
+# 2. Correct mode detected
+# 3. Auto-enablement messages (if using semantic search in multi-user mode)
+```
+
+**Expected Log Output (Multi-User OAuth + Semantic Search):**
+```
+INFO: Using explicit deployment mode: oauth_single_audience
+INFO: Automatically enabled background operations for semantic search in multi-user mode.
+INFO: Vector sync enabled. Starting background scanner...
+```
+
+### Step 4: Verify Functionality
+
+Test that existing features still work:
+- [ ] Semantic search returns results
+- [ ] Background indexing runs
+- [ ] OAuth flow completes successfully
+- [ ] Refresh tokens are stored/retrieved

+
+```dotenv
+# Optional but recommended
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience

+# Database Migrations
+
+This document describes the database migration system for nextcloud-mcp-server's token storage database.
+
+## Overview
+
+The token storage database uses [Alembic](https://alembic.sqlalchemy.org/) for schema versioning and migrations. Alembic provides:
+
+- **Version Control**: Track schema changes in Git
+- **Rollback Support**: Safely downgrade schema if needed
+- **Audit Trail**: Migration files serve as schema changelog
+- **Automated Upgrades**: Database schema updates automatically on startup
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Migration Strategy
+
+The system handles three scenarios:
+
+1. **New Database**: Runs migrations from scratch to create all tables
+2. **Pre-Alembic Database**: Stamps existing database with initial revision (no changes)
+3. **Alembic-Managed Database**: Upgrades to latest version automatically
+
+### Directory Structure

+    └── migrations.py                     # Migration utilities
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Automatic Migration on Startup
+
+Migrations run automatically when the server starts:
+
+```bash
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server
+```
+
+The `RefreshTokenStorage.initialize()` method:
+1. Checks if database is Alembic-managed
+2. Stamps pre-Alembic databases with initial revision
+3. Upgrades to latest version
+
+### Manual Migration Commands
+
+```bash
+# Show current database version
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current
+
+# Upgrade database to latest version
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade
+
+# Show migration history
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db history
+
+# Downgrade by one version (emergency use only)
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db downgrade
+
+# Specify custom database path
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current -d /path/to/tokens.db
+```
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+- `TOKEN_STORAGE_DB`: Path to database file (default: `/app/data/tokens.db`)
+
+## Creating Migrations (Developers)
+
+### Step 1: Create Migration File
+
+```bash
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db migrate "add user preferences table"
+```
+
+This creates a new migration file in `alembic/versions/` with empty `upgrade()` and `downgrade()` functions.
+
+### Step 2: Write Migration SQL
+
+Since we don't use SQLAlchemy models, write raw SQL:
+
+```python
+def upgrade() -> None:
+    """Add user preferences table."""
+    op.execute("""
+        CREATE TABLE user_preferences (
+            user_id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+            theme TEXT DEFAULT 'light',
+            language TEXT DEFAULT 'en',
+            created_at INTEGER NOT NULL
+        )
+    """)
+
+    op.execute("""
+        CREATE INDEX idx_user_preferences_user_id
+        ON user_preferences(user_id)
+    """)
+
+
+def downgrade() -> None:
+    """Remove user preferences table."""
+    op.execute("DROP INDEX IF EXISTS idx_user_preferences_user_id")
+    op.execute("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS user_preferences")
+```
+
+### Step 3: Test Migration
+
+```bash
+# Test upgrade
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade -d /tmp/test.db
+
+# Verify schema
+sqlite3 /tmp/test.db ".schema"
+
+# Test downgrade
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db downgrade -d /tmp/test.db
+
+# Verify removal
+sqlite3 /tmp/test.db ".schema"
+```
+
+### Step 4: Commit Migration
+
+```bash
+git add alembic/versions/YYYYMMDD_HHMM_XXX_description.py
+git commit -m "feat: add user preferences table migration"
+```
+
+## SQLite Limitations
+
+SQLite has limited `ALTER TABLE` support:
+
+### Supported Operations
+
+- ✅ Add columns: `ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN ...`
+- ✅ Rename table: `ALTER TABLE old RENAME TO new`
+- ✅ Rename column: `ALTER TABLE table RENAME COLUMN old TO new` (SQLite 3.25+)
+
+### Unsupported Operations (Requires Table Recreation)
+
+- ❌ Drop column
+- ❌ Change column type
+- ❌ Add constraints to existing columns
+
+### Table Recreation Pattern
+
+For complex schema changes:
+
+```python
+def upgrade() -> None:
+    # Create new table with desired schema
+    op.execute("""
+        CREATE TABLE refresh_tokens_new (
+            user_id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+            encrypted_token BLOB NOT NULL,
+            new_field TEXT,  -- New column
+            expires_at INTEGER,
+            created_at INTEGER NOT NULL
+        )
+    """)
+
+    # Copy data from old table
+    op.execute("""
+        INSERT INTO refresh_tokens_new
+        (user_id, encrypted_token, expires_at, created_at)
+        SELECT user_id, encrypted_token, expires_at, created_at
+        FROM refresh_tokens
+    """)
+
+    # Drop old table and rename new table
+    op.execute("DROP TABLE refresh_tokens")
+    op.execute("ALTER TABLE refresh_tokens_new RENAME TO refresh_tokens")
+
+    # Recreate indexes
+    op.execute("CREATE INDEX idx_user_id ON refresh_tokens(user_id)")
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Naming Conventions
+
+- **Migrations**: `YYYYMMDD_HHMM_XXX_description.py`
+- **Revision IDs**: Sequential numbers (`001`, `002`, `003`)
+- **Descriptions**: Imperative mood ("add table", "remove column")
+
+### Migration Guidelines
+
+1. **Test Thoroughly**: Test both upgrade and downgrade paths
+2. **Preserve Data**: Ensure data migration logic is correct
+3. **Document Changes**: Add comments explaining complex operations
+4. **Small Changes**: One logical change per migration
+5. **No Breaking Changes**: Maintain backward compatibility when possible
+
+### Downgrade Considerations
+
+- **Data Loss**: Downgrade may lose data (dropped columns, tables)
+- **Confirmation**: Downgrade command requires explicit confirmation
+- **Testing**: Always test downgrade path before deploying
+- **Emergency Only**: Use downgrades only for critical rollbacks
+
+## Backward Compatibility
+
+### Pre-Alembic Databases
+
+Existing databases created before Alembic integration are automatically detected and stamped with revision `001`:
+
+1. Server detects no `alembic_version` table
+2. Checks if `refresh_tokens` table exists
+3. If yes, stamps database with `001` (no schema changes)
+4. Future updates use normal migration path
+
+### Migration Path
+
+```
+Pre-Alembic DB → Stamp(001) → Upgrade(002) → Upgrade(003) → ...
+New DB → Migrate(001) → Upgrade(002) → Upgrade(003) → ...
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Migration Fails
+
+```bash
+# Check current state
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current -d /path/to/tokens.db
+
+# View migration history
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db history -d /path/to/tokens.db
+
+# Manually inspect database
+sqlite3 /path/to/tokens.db ".schema"
+```
+
+### Reset to Initial State
+
+**WARNING: This destroys all data!**
+
+```bash
+# Downgrade to base (empty database)
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db downgrade -d /path/to/tokens.db --revision base
+
+# Upgrade to latest
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade -d /path/to/tokens.db
+```
+
+### Corrupted Migration State
+
+If `alembic_version` table is corrupted:
+
+```bash
+# Manually fix via SQL
+sqlite3 /path/to/tokens.db
+> DELETE FROM alembic_version;
+> INSERT INTO alembic_version (version_num) VALUES ('001');
+> .quit
+
+# Verify and upgrade
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current -d /path/to/tokens.db
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade -d /path/to/tokens.db
+```
+
+## CI/CD Integration
+
+### Pre-Deployment
+
+```bash
+# Run migrations in test environment
+export TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/app/data/tokens.db
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade
+
+# Verify current version
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current
+```
+
+### Docker Deployment
+
+Migrations run automatically on container startup via `RefreshTokenStorage.initialize()`.
+
+### Rollback Plan
+
+1. Stop application
+2. Backup database: `cp tokens.db tokens.db.backup`
+3. Downgrade: `uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db downgrade --revision XXX`
+4. Deploy previous application version
+5. Restart application

+# Load environment variables
+export $(grep -v '^#' .env | xargs)
+
+# Run the server with auto-reload
+uv run nextcloud-mcp-server run --oauth --log-level debug
 ```
 
+### CLI Subcommands
+
+The `nextcloud-mcp-server` CLI has two main subcommands:
+
+1. **`run`** - Start the MCP server (default command in Docker)
+   ```bash
+   uv run nextcloud-mcp-server run --oauth --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
+   ```
+
+2. **`db`** - Database migration management (Alembic)
+   ```bash
+   # Show current migration revision
+   uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db current
+
+   # Upgrade to latest migration
+   uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade
+
+   # Show migration history
+   uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db history
+
+   # Create new migration (developers only)
+   uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db migrate "description of changes"
+   ```
+
+### Database Migrations
+
+Token storage uses **Alembic** for schema management:
+
+- **Automatic migrations**: Database is upgraded automatically on server startup
+- **Backward compatibility**: Pre-Alembic databases are automatically stamped with the initial revision
+- **Migration files**: Located in `alembic/versions/`
+- **For developers**: When changing the schema:
+  1. Create a migration: `uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db migrate "add new column"`
+  2. Edit the generated file in `alembic/versions/` to add SQL statements
+  3. Test upgrade: `uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db upgrade`
+  4. Test downgrade: `uv run nextcloud-mcp-server db downgrade`
+
+See [Database Migrations Guide](database-migrations.md) for detailed information.

+## Configuration Issues (v0.58.0+)
+
+### Issue: Deprecation warning for VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+WARNING: VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED is deprecated. Please use ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH instead.
+```
+
+**Cause:** You're using the old variable name from v0.57.x.
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# In your .env file, replace:
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true
+
+# With:
+ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true
+```
+
+See [Configuration Migration Guide](configuration-migration-v2.md) for complete migration instructions.
+
+---
+
+### Issue: Deprecation warning for ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+WARNING: ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS is deprecated. Please use ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS instead.
+```
+
+**Cause:** You're using the old variable name from v0.57.x.
+
+**Solution:**
+
+**If you have semantic search enabled:**
+```bash
+# In multi-user modes, you can remove ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS entirely!
+# ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH automatically enables background operations
+
+# Before (v0.57.x):
+ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true
+
+# After (v0.58.0+):
+ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true  # This is all you need!
+```
+
+**If you only want background operations (no semantic search):**
+```bash
+# Replace:
+ENABLE_OFFLINE_ACCESS=true
+
+# With:
+ENABLE_BACKGROUND_OPERATIONS=true
+```
+
+---
+
+### Issue: "Invalid MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE"
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+ValueError: Invalid MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE: 'oauth'. Valid values: single_user_basic, multi_user_basic, oauth_single_audience, oauth_token_exchange, smithery
+```
+
+**Cause:** Invalid value for `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE`.
+
+**Solution:**
+Use one of the valid mode values:
+```bash
+# Correct values:
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=single_user_basic          # Single-user with username/password
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=multi_user_basic           # Multi-user BasicAuth
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_single_audience      # OAuth (recommended)
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=oauth_token_exchange       # OAuth with token exchange
+MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE=smithery                   # Smithery deployment
+```
+
+Or remove `MCP_DEPLOYMENT_MODE` to use automatic detection.
+
+---
+
+### Issue: Missing TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY when semantic search enabled
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+Error: [oauth_single_audience] TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY is required when ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH is enabled
+```
+
+**Cause:** In multi-user modes, semantic search automatically enables background operations, which require encrypted token storage.
+
+**Solution:**
+Generate an encryption key and add required token storage configuration:
+
+```bash
+# Generate encryption key
+python -c "from cryptography.fernet import Fernet; print(Fernet.generate_key().decode())"
+
+# Add to .env:
+TOKEN_ENCRYPTION_KEY=<generated-key>
+TOKEN_STORAGE_DB=/app/data/tokens.db
+NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id       # Required for app password retrieval
+NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
+```
+
+**Why this happens:**
+- v0.58.0+ automatically enables background operations when `ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true` in multi-user modes
+- Background operations need encrypted refresh token storage
+- This simplifies configuration but requires the encryption infrastructure
+
+See [Configuration Guide - Semantic Search](configuration.md#semantic-search-configuration-optional) for details.
+
+---
+
+### Issue: Both old and new variable names set
+
+**Symptom:**
+```
+WARNING: Both ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH and VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED are set. Using ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH.
+```
+
+**Cause:** You have both the old and new variable names in your configuration.
+
+**Solution:**
+Remove the old variable name:
+```bash
+# Remove this line:
+VECTOR_SYNC_ENABLED=true
+
+# Keep this line:
+ENABLE_SEMANTIC_SEARCH=true
+```
+
+The server will use the new name and ignore the old one, but it's cleaner to remove the old variable entirely.
