+- **`omni init --hook` registered an MCP server it said it would not (#757)**: the flag has
+  read "Only install hooks" since it shipped and installed both halves anyway, and then
+  `omni doctor` called the resulting state a broken install and `omni doctor --fix` undid
+  it. Three ways of overruling a choice the CLI offered in the first place. `--hook` and
+  `--mcp` now install the half they name, naming the host or both halves still gets both,
+  and an absent MCP registration on Claude Code is reported as what it is rather than as a
+  fault: the hooks are what shortens output there, and the server is a convenience whose
+  tool definitions sit in the prefix of every request.
