Reconciles molecule-core docs with the merged RFC docs/design/rfc-platform-mcp-as-plugin.md. Docs-only; one coherent PR.

Canonical model applied: the management MCP is delivered as an entitlement-gated plugin (the plugin declaration in config.yaml: plugins: is the SSOT, not a separate mcp_servers: list); the plugin carries a runtime-agnostic MCP descriptor that a per-runtime shape adapter renders into the runtime native MCP config (claude .claude/settings.json, codex ~/.codex/config.toml, gemini ~/.gemini/settings.json, hermes platforms.*); the platform agent is runtime-switchable (claude-code is the default); the baked molecule-platform-agent image is retired.

Per-doc

• rfc-platform-agent.md — added a header supersession note; marked §5.5 (config.yaml: mcp_servers: list, hardcoded runtime: claude-code) and §5.7 (dedicated molecule-platform-agent image) superseded by rfc-platform-mcp-as-plugin; added pointers in §5.6 (image = standard runtime image), §7 (MCP-on-ordinary-workspaces now gated by entitlement, not image separation), §9 (phases 2 and 3 revised). Conceptual model — platform-as-root, kind, resolver, approval gate, billing parity — left intact. Nothing deleted.
• rfc-decouple-config-skill-delivery.md — §10a cross-refs the new RFC (management-MCP moves to the plugin channel; identity stays on the asset channel; image retired; runtime-switchable); added it to the Related line.
• plugins/agentskills-compat.md — new section documenting the MCP-server plugin shape + the per-runtime MCP-wiring shape adapter at the conceptual level; entitlement-gate note; explicit see the runtime implementation pointer (no APIs pinned).
• plugins/sources.md — enriched the Shapes section with the MCP-server shape + plugin-declaration-as-SSOT + the per-runtime native-config table.
• agent-runtime/cli-runtime.md — new subsection on plugin-delivered MCP servers + shape adapter; corrects the concierge to runtime-switchable + plugin-delivered; see-runtime-implementation pointer.

Scope respected: docs/ only; no .gitea/ and no molecule-ai-workspace-runtime files touched (parallel subagents own those). Do not merge.

docs: reconcile platform-agent docs with plugin-SSOT / runtime-agnostic model ... c1e3d3af14

Reconcile molecule-core docs with the merged
rfc-platform-mcp-as-plugin.md: the management MCP is delivered as an
entitlement-gated plugin (the plugin declaration in config.yaml: plugins:
is the SSOT, not a separate mcp_servers: list), carries a runtime-agnostic
MCP descriptor rendered into each runtime's native MCP config by a
per-runtime shape adapter, and the platform agent is runtime-switchable
(claude-code is the default; the baked molecule-platform-agent image is
retired).

- rfc-platform-agent.md: mark §5.5 (mcp_servers: list) and §5.7 (dedicated
  image) superseded; add header note + §5.6/§7/§9 pointers.
- rfc-decouple-config-skill-delivery.md §10a: cross-ref the new RFC.
- plugins/agentskills-compat.md + plugins/sources.md: document the
  MCP-server plugin shape + per-runtime MCP-wiring shape adapter
  conceptually (no runtime APIs pinned; see-runtime-implementation pointer).
- agent-runtime/cli-runtime.md: document plugin-delivered MCP + shape
  adapter; correct concierge to runtime-switchable + plugin-delivered.

APPROVED on core#3191 head c1e3d3af14.

5-axis: docs-only reconciliation is consistent with the plugin-SSOT/runtime-agnostic MCP model: config.yaml plugins remain the source of truth, runtime-specific MCP rendering is delegated to adapters, privileged platform MCP is entitlement-gated, and the old mcp_servers/baked platform image text is clearly marked superseded rather than silently conflicting. No secrets are introduced, no runtime behavior changes, and cross-links are coherent.

Merge note: review axis only. Live status still shows qa-review needing this approval and staging SaaS contexts pending; merge should wait for BP-required green/no open RC.

APPROVED on c1e3d3af.

5-axis review: correctness is sound for a docs-only reconciliation. The PR consistently moves the platform-management MCP delivery model to the plugin declaration (config.yaml: plugins:) as SSOT, keeps mcp_servers: only as explicitly superseded historical text in the older RFC, and cross-links the merged rfc-platform-mcp-as-plugin.md. It also preserves the still-valid platform-agent concepts (kind/root/default-target/approval gate/billing parity) while updating the delivery/image/runtime-switchability pieces.

Robustness/readability are good: the docs avoid pinning runtime implementation signatures and point readers to the runtime for adapter details. Security posture is not weakened; privileged MCP delivery is described as entitlement-gated and secrets are referenced rather than embedded. Performance is not applicable. No file outside docs is touched; visible pending E2E contexts are merge-gate concerns, not review blockers for this docs diff.
