Fetch help content from repo, add TOC and marketplace troubleshooting

Help dialog now fetches HOW-TO-USE.md live from the gitea repo on open,
falling back to the compile-time embedded copy when offline. Content is
cached for the session. Removes the ~600-line hardcoded markdown constant
from HelpDialog.tsx in favor of a single source of truth.

Adds a Table of Contents with anchor links for quick navigation and a new
troubleshooting entry for the "Failed to install Anthropic marketplace"
error with the jq fix. Markdown renderer updated to support anchor links
and header id attributes.

+## MCP Servers (Beta)
+
+Triple-C supports [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) servers, which extend Claude Code with access to external tools and data sources. MCP servers are configured in a **global library** and **enabled per-project**.
+
+### How It Works
+
+There are two dimensions to MCP server configuration:
+
+| | **Manual** (no Docker image) | **Docker** (Docker image specified) |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Stdio** | Command runs inside the project container | Command runs in a separate MCP container via `docker exec` |
+| **HTTP** | Connects to a URL you provide | Runs in a separate container, reached by hostname on a shared Docker network |
+
+**Docker images are pulled automatically** if not already present when the project starts.
+
+### Accessing MCP Configuration
+
+Click the **MCP** tab in the sidebar to open the MCP server library. This is where you define all available MCP servers.
+
+### Adding an MCP Server
+
+1. Type a name in the input field and click **Add**.
+2. Expand the server card and configure it.
+
+The key decision is whether to set a **Docker Image**:
+- **With Docker image** — The MCP server runs in its own isolated container. Best for servers that need specific dependencies or system-level packages.
+- **Without Docker image** (manual) — The command runs directly inside your project container. Best for lightweight npx-based servers that just need Node.js.
+
+Then choose the **Transport Type**:
+- **Stdio** — The MCP server communicates over stdin/stdout. This is the most common type.
+- **HTTP** — The MCP server exposes an HTTP endpoint (streamable HTTP transport).
+
+### Configuration Examples
+
+#### Example 1: Filesystem Server (Stdio, Manual)
+
+A simple npx-based server that runs inside the project container. No Docker image needed since Node.js is already installed.
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| **Docker Image** | *(empty)* |
+| **Transport** | Stdio |
+| **Command** | `npx` |
+| **Arguments** | `-y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /workspace` |
+
+This gives Claude Code access to browse and read files via MCP. The command runs directly inside the project container using the pre-installed Node.js.
+
+#### Example 2: GitHub Server (Stdio, Manual)
+
+Another npx-based server, with an environment variable for authentication.
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| **Docker Image** | *(empty)* |
+| **Transport** | Stdio |
+| **Command** | `npx` |
+| **Arguments** | `-y @modelcontextprotocol/server-github` |
+| **Environment Variables** | `GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN` = `ghp_your_token` |
+
+#### Example 3: Custom MCP Server (HTTP, Docker)
+
+An MCP server packaged as a Docker image that exposes an HTTP endpoint.
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| **Docker Image** | `myregistry/my-mcp-server:latest` |
+| **Transport** | HTTP |
+| **Container Port** | `8080` |
+| **Environment Variables** | `API_KEY` = `your_key` |
+
+Triple-C will:
+1. Pull the image automatically if not present
+2. Start the container on the project's bridge network
+3. Configure Claude Code to reach it at `http://triple-c-mcp-{id}:8080/mcp`
+
+The hostname is the MCP container's name on the Docker network — **not** `localhost`.
+
+#### Example 4: Database Server (Stdio, Docker)
+
+An MCP server that needs its own runtime environment, communicating over stdio.
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| **Docker Image** | `mcp/postgres-server:latest` |
+| **Transport** | Stdio |
+| **Command** | `node` |
+| **Arguments** | `dist/index.js` |
+| **Environment Variables** | `DATABASE_URL` = `postgresql://user:pass@host:5432/db` |
+
+Triple-C will:
+1. Pull the image and start it on the project network
+2. Configure Claude Code to communicate via `docker exec -i triple-c-mcp-{id} node dist/index.js`
+3. Automatically enable Docker socket access on the project container (required for `docker exec`)
+
+### Enabling MCP Servers Per-Project
+
+In a project's configuration panel (click **Config**), the **MCP Servers** section shows checkboxes for all globally defined servers. Toggle each server on or off for that project. Changes take effect on the next container start.
+
+### How Docker-Based MCP Works
+
+When a project with Docker-based MCP servers starts:
+
+1. Missing Docker images are **automatically pulled** (progress shown in the progress modal)
+2. A dedicated **bridge network** is created for the project (`triple-c-net-{projectId}`)
+3. Each enabled Docker MCP server gets its own container on that network
+4. The main project container is connected to the same network
+5. MCP server configuration is written to `~/.claude.json` inside the container
+
+**Networking**: Docker-based MCP containers are reached by their container name as a hostname (e.g., `triple-c-mcp-{serverId}`), not by `localhost`. Docker DNS resolves these names automatically on the shared bridge network.
+
+**Stdio + Docker**: The project container uses `docker exec` to communicate with the MCP container over stdin/stdout. This automatically enables Docker socket access on the project container.
+
+**HTTP + Docker**: The project container connects to the MCP container's HTTP endpoint using the container hostname and port (e.g., `http://triple-c-mcp-{serverId}:3000/mcp`).
+
+**Manual (no Docker image)**: Stdio commands run directly inside the project container. HTTP URLs connect to wherever you point them (could be an external service or something running on the host).
+
+### Configuration Change Detection
+
+MCP server configuration is tracked via SHA-256 fingerprints stored as Docker labels. If you add, remove, or modify MCP servers for a project, the container is automatically recreated on the next start to apply the new configuration. The container filesystem is snapshotted first, so installed packages are preserved.

+
+To use Claude Code with a local or remote Ollama server, switch the backend to **Ollama** on the project card.
+
+### Settings
+
+- **Base URL** — The URL of your Ollama server. Defaults to `http://host.docker.internal:11434`, which reaches a locally running Ollama instance from inside the container. For a remote server, use its IP or hostname (e.g., `http://192.168.1.100:11434`).
+- **Model ID** — Optional. Override the model to use (e.g., `qwen3.5:27b`).
+
+### How It Works
+
+Triple-C sets `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` to point Claude Code at your Ollama server instead of Anthropic's API. The `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` is set to `ollama` (required by Claude Code but not used for actual authentication).

+### MCP Server Architecture
+
+Triple-C supports [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) servers as a Beta feature. MCP servers extend Claude Code with external tools and data sources.
+
+**Modes**: Each MCP server operates in one of four modes based on transport type and whether a Docker image is specified:
+
+| Mode | Where It Runs | How It Communicates |
+|------|--------------|---------------------|
+| Stdio + Manual | Inside the project container | Direct stdin/stdout (e.g., `npx -y @mcp/server`) |
+| Stdio + Docker | Separate MCP container | `docker exec -i <mcp-container> <command>` from the project container |
+| HTTP + Manual | External / user-provided | Connects to the URL you specify |
+| HTTP + Docker | Separate MCP container | `http://<mcp-container>:<port>/mcp` via Docker DNS on a shared bridge network |
+
+**Key behaviors**:
+- **Global library**: MCP servers are defined globally in the MCP sidebar tab and stored in `mcp_servers.json`
+- **Per-project toggles**: Each project enables/disables individual servers via checkboxes
+- **Auto-pull**: Docker images for MCP servers are pulled automatically if not present when the project starts
+- **Docker networking**: Docker-based MCP containers run on a per-project bridge network (`triple-c-net-{projectId}`), reachable by container name — not localhost
+- **Auto-detection**: Config changes are detected via SHA-256 fingerprints and trigger automatic container recreation
+- **Config injection**: MCP server configuration is written to `~/.claude.json` inside the container via the `MCP_SERVERS_JSON` environment variable, merged by the entrypoint using `jq`
+
+### Mission Control Integration
+
+Optional per-project integration with [Flight Control](https://github.com/msieurthenardier/mission-control) — an AI-first development methodology. When enabled, the repo is cloned into the container, skills are installed, and workflow instructions are injected into CLAUDE.md.

+const MISSION_CONTROL_GLOBAL_INSTRUCTIONS: &str = r#"## Mission Control
+
+The `/workspace/mission-control/` directory contains **Flight Control** — an AI-first development methodology for structured project management. Use it for all project work.
+
+### How It Works
+
+- **Mission Control is a tool, not a project.** It provides skills and methodology for managing other projects.
+- All Flight Control skills are installed as personal skills in `~/.claude/skills/` and are automatically available as `/slash-commands`
+- The methodology docs and project registry live in `/workspace/mission-control/`
+
+### When to Use
+
+When working on any project that has a `.flightops/` directory, follow the Flight Control methodology:
+1. Read the project's `.flightops/ARTIFACTS.md` to understand artifact storage
+2. Read `.flightops/FLIGHT_OPERATIONS.md` for the implementation workflow
+3. Use Mission Control skills for planning and execution
+
+### Available Skills
+
+| Skill | When to Use |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `/init-project` | Setting up a new project for Flight Control |
+| `/mission` | Defining new work outcomes (days-to-weeks scope) |
+| `/flight` | Creating technical specs from missions (hours-to-days scope) |
+| `/leg` | Generating implementation steps from flights (minutes-to-hours scope) |
+| `/agentic-workflow` | Executing legs with multi-agent workflow (implement, review, commit) |
+| `/flight-debrief` | Post-flight analysis after a flight lands |
+| `/mission-debrief` | Post-mission retrospective after completion |
+| `/daily-briefing` | Cross-project status report |
+
+### Key Rules
+
+- **Planning skills produce artifacts only** — never modify source code directly
+- **Phase gates require human confirmation** — missions before flights, flights before legs
+- **Legs are immutable once in-flight** — create new ones instead of modifying
+- **`/agentic-workflow` orchestrates implementation** — it spawns separate Developer and Reviewer agents
+- **Artifacts live in the target project** — not in mission-control"#;
