| 1 | ## How It Works |
| 2 | |
| 3 | 1. **Check if MCP is connected** — Look for `CatalystbyZoho_*` tools in your tool list. |
| 4 | |
| 5 | 2. **⛔ MCP NOT connected — HARD STOP.** |
| 6 | Do NOT write any code, create any files, or call any SDK. |
| 7 | Ask the user which setup path they prefer, then load `references/zoho-mcp.md` and follow only that path. |
| 8 | Do not proceed to step 3 until the user confirms `CatalystbyZoho_*` tools are visible in their client. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | > **To work with Catalyst via MCP, choose your setup path:** |
| 11 | > |
| 12 | > **Option A — Global MCP Server** *(recommended)* |
| 13 | > Add your DC-specific URL to your AI client config, authorize once via browser, done. No console needed. |

| 15 | > |
| 16 | > **Option B — Personal MCP Server** *(custom/team setup)* |
| 17 | > Create your own server at mcp.zoho.com, select tools, get a personal URL with a token embedded. |
| 18 | > |
| 19 | > *Which would you prefer?* |
| 20 | |
| 21 | 3. **Pre-flight sequence** — Always run `CatalystbyZoho_List_All_Organizations` → `CatalystbyZoho_List_All_Projects` first to set project context before any other MCP tool call. |
| 22 | 4. **Load `references/zoho-mcp.md`** — for the full tool catalog, execution flow, and common error fixes. |
| 23 | 5. **If the query involves DataStore** (create table, add columns, query data) — also load `references/mcp-datastore.md`. |
| 24 | 6. **Answer** — Call the appropriate `CatalystbyZoho_*` tool directly. Show the user what tool was called and what it returned. |
