FilipBl4gojevic d0fc86c6e0 docs: agent-registry family is keyless - tool tables, custody scope, spend-limit copy
README, .env.example, packages/signer/README.md, and docs/architecture/non-custodial-split.md
updated for the family-2 keyless migration (agent-registry build_* tools, no mnemonic
parameters): security notice narrowed to name the Self-Improvement Module as the only
remaining custodial family; agent-registry tool table renamed to the five build_* rows;
features bullets, self-hosting copy, Configuration/spend-limit scope notes, and the
architecture diagram's Safety Layer footnote all updated to "self-improvement only"; signer
README's pairing-status bullet and closing line extended to cover wallet/tx/contract AND
agent-registry; architecture doc's PR-sequence table marks family 2 as landed.

docs/VECTOR.md gains five new tool sections (register/update/transfer/deregister/message) -
this doc never documented the registry family under any name before, so these are additions
rather than renames; keyless framing (changeAddress, no mnemonic, unsigned CBOR + 4-call flow)
matches the style of the existing wallet/tx/contract sections. Safety Controls section's
custodial-family list also corrected to self-improvement only.

# Vector MCP Server — Tool Reference
## Overview
The Vector MCP Server exposes blockchain tools that AI agents can use to interact with the Vector network. All tools use the `vector_` prefix and communicate with Vector via Ogmios (chain queries) and the submit API (transaction submission).
## Prerequisites
1. A Vector wallet address (source of funds) — the tools below are keyless and take no mnemonic; signing happens separately via your local signer
2. Access to Vector network endpoints (Ogmios, submit API, Koios)
3. Node.js >= 14.0.0
## Tools
### vector_get_balance
Get ADA and token balances for any Vector address.

- `payload` (string, required) — Message payload (max 512 chars)
**Example prompt:** "Send an inquiry message to did:vector:agent:... asking about pricing"
## Safety Controls
The tools above are keyless and take no key material, so the server no longer enforces
spend limits on them. Spend policy is enforced by your **local signer** when it signs the
CBOR these tools return — see the security notice in the repo [README](../README.md) and
[docs/architecture/non-custodial-split.md](architecture/non-custodial-split.md).
`VECTOR_SPEND_LIMIT_PER_TX` / `VECTOR_SPEND_LIMIT_DAILY` / `VECTOR_AUDIT_LOG_PATH` still
govern the server's one remaining custodial tool family (self-improvement) until its own
keyless migration lands.
## Network Endpoints
| Service | URL | Protocol |
|---------|-----|----------|
| Ogmios | ogmios.vector.testnet.apexfusion.org | HTTP JSON-RPC + WebSocket |
| Submit API | submit.vector.testnet.apexfusion.org/api/submit/tx | HTTP POST (CBOR) |
| Koios | koios.vector.testnet.apexfusion.org | REST API |
| Explorer | vector.testnet.apexscan.org | Web UI |
## Error Handling
All tools return helpful error messages with troubleshooting tips. Common issues:
- **Insufficient balance** — Ensure the wallet at `changeAddress` has enough AP3X for the transaction + fees
- **Connection failed** — Verify Ogmios endpoint is reachable
- **Invalid address** — Vector addresses start with `addr1`
