+Hatch is the package manager for managing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers with environment isolation, multi-type dependency resolution, and multi-host deployment. Deploy MCP servers to Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, Kiro, Codex, and other platforms with automatic dependency management.
 
 The canonical documentation is at `docs/index.md` and published at <https://hatch.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>.
 
 ## Key Features
 
 - **Environment Isolation** — Create separate, isolated workspaces for different projects without conflicts
 - **Multi-Type Dependency Resolution** — Automatically resolve and install system packages, Python packages, Docker containers, and Hatch packages
-- **Multi-Host Deployment** — Deploy MCP servers to Claude Desktop, Claude Code, VS Code, Cursor, LM Studio, and Google Gemini CLI
+- **Multi-Host Deployment** — Configure MCP servers on multiple host platforms
 - **Package Validation** — Ensure packages meet schema requirements before distribution
 - **Development-Focused** — Optimized for rapid development and testing of MCP server ecosystems

 ## Integration Points
 
-### Backup System Integration
+Every host strategy must integrate with these systems. Missing any integration point will result in incomplete functionality.
+
+### Backup System Integration (Required)
 
-All configuration operations integrate with the backup system:
+All configuration write operations **must** integrate with the backup system via `MCPHostConfigBackupManager` and `AtomicFileOperations`:
 
+```python
+from .backup import MCPHostConfigBackupManager, AtomicFileOperations
+
+def write_configuration(self, config: HostConfiguration, no_backup: bool = False) -> bool:
+    # ... prepare data ...
+    backup_manager = MCPHostConfigBackupManager()
+    atomic_ops = AtomicFileOperations()
+    atomic_ops.atomic_write_with_backup(
+        file_path=config_path,
+        data=existing_data,
+        backup_manager=backup_manager,
+        hostname="your-host",  # Must match MCPHostType value
+        skip_backup=no_backup
+    )
+```
+
+**Key requirements:**
 - **Atomic operations**: Configuration changes are backed up before modification
-- **Rollback capability**: Failed operations can be reverted
-- **Multi-host support**: Separate backups per host platform
+- **Rollback capability**: Failed operations can be reverted automatically
+- **Hostname identification**: Each host uses its `MCPHostType` value for backup tracking
 - **Timestamped retention**: Backup files include timestamps for tracking
 
+### Model Registry Integration (Required for host-specific fields)
+
+If your host has unique configuration fields (like Kiro's `disabled`, `autoApprove`, `disabledTools`):
+
+1. Create host-specific model class in `models.py`
+2. Register in `HOST_MODEL_REGISTRY`
+3. Extend `MCPServerConfigOmni` with new fields
+4. Implement `from_omni()` conversion method
+
+### CLI Integration (Required for host-specific arguments)
+
+If your host has unique CLI arguments:
+
+1. Extend `handle_mcp_configure()` function signature in `cli_hatch.py`
+2. Add argument parser entries for new flags
+3. Update omni model population logic

+To add support for a new host platform, complete these integration points:
 
-1. **Define host type** in `MCPHostType` enum
-2. **Create strategy class** inheriting from appropriate family base or `MCPHostStrategy`
-3. **Implement required methods** for configuration path, validation, read/write operations
-4. **Add decorator registration** with `@register_host_strategy(MCPHostType.NEW_HOST)`
-5. **Add tests** following existing test patterns
+| Integration Point | Required? | Files to Modify |
+|-------------------|-----------|-----------------|
+| Host type enum | Always | `models.py` |
+| Strategy class | Always | `strategies.py` |
+| Backup integration | Always | `strategies.py` (in `write_configuration`) |
+| Host-specific model | If unique fields | `models.py`, `HOST_MODEL_REGISTRY` |

+**Minimal implementation** (standard host, no unique fields):
 
 ```python
 @register_host_strategy(MCPHostType.NEW_HOST)
