## Evidence coverage (private beta)

Evidence returned by the MCP is deduplicated, ranked for the request, and linked to source and permission provenance. Counts reflect the canonical evidence-store snapshot, not invented adoption or asset totals.

## Retrieval
Ask the design.live MCP for the project brief, constraints, and desired Vercel qualities. It returns ranked evidence and an agent-ready implementation plan; do not copy a source screen wholesale.
