- APPCRANE_URL — Base URL of your own AppCrane instance, e.g. https://crane.example.com. Without it the connector still starts and answers tools/list from the bundled catalog, but cannot execute tools.
- APPCRANE_KEY — Your AppCrane API key, sent to the instance as the X-API-Key header. Required to execute tools.
- APPCRANE_GITHUB_TOKEN — Optional GitHub personal access token, sent as X-Github-Token, to unlock the github_* passthrough tools.
