Client configuration

# Smithery deployment config.
#
# This file tells Smithery how to host the MCPSpend MCP server when a user
# selects the "Smithery hosted" option (run.tools URL). For self-hosted
# users this file has no effect — they just `npx -y @mcpspend/mcp-server`
# locally and we never touch their machine.
