Session & State

Each MCP connection gets an isolated session via Cloudflare Durable Objects. Session state includes:

sessionId — Generated on first get_instant_quote call. Links quotes across tools.
lastQuote — Cached quote data for fast compare_plans lookups without extra DB queries.

Sessions are ephemeral — they live in Durable Object memory and are cleared when the connection ends.
