MCP server containers are managed by and proxied through mcpd,
not directly accessible. Updated diagram to show containers
nested inside mcpd boundary with explanation.

**Tool namespacing**: When Claude connects to a project with servers `grafana` and `slack`, it sees tools like `grafana/search_dashboards` and `slack/send_message`. The proxy routes each call to the correct upstream server.
Clients never connect to MCP server containers directly — all tool calls go through mcplocal → mcpd, which proxies them to the right container via STDIO/SSE/HTTP. This keeps containers unexposed and lets mcpd enforce RBAC and health checks.
