v2.0.3 — Mandatory rules baked into the MCP server itself

What changed

When operators connect to the librecrawl-mcp server without the local Claude Code skill installed (e.g. through a fresh Cursor/Codex/Windsurf install or directly via Claude Desktop's MCP config), their LLM previously had no visibility into the "always save zip locally + auto_cleanup=True + never report zip_path" rules. That mandate lived only in .claude/skills/librecrawl-audit/SKILL.md.

v2.0.3 fixes this by passing a 2,786-character instructions payload to FastMCP at server-init time. Every MCP-compatible client receives it during the initialize handshake and passes it to the LLM's system context.

Instructions payload covers

• 3-step audit workflow (start_chunked_audit → poll status → audit_zip)
• 3 mandatory rules for handling the zip response:
  1. Save locally: base64-decode content_base64 to a local file using the filename field
  2. Never report zip_path: it's the REMOTE path, useless to the operator
  3. auto_cleanup=True is mandatory
• 8-file zip contents reference
• Final response shape to mirror back to the user

Plus

librecrawl_audit_zip docstring rewritten to lead with the same 3 rules — visible to any LLM that reads the tool schema even if the server-level instructions are ignored.

Verified

Initialize handshake against brain.posimyth.com/librecrawl/mcp returns the instructions payload (length: 2,786 chars). The local skill at .claude/skills/librecrawl-audit/ remains as a developer-experience fallback but is no longer required for correctness.
