Runtime proof

Claim	Proof
Package entry point is stable	mcp-search-console-multi = "gsc.server:main" in pyproject.toml
Multi-account routing is first-class	AccountManager() and _get_manager() in gsc/server.py
Search Console calls are retried	with_retry() in gsc/server.py and gsc/retry.py
Auth is file-driven per account	accounts.example.json and gsc/accounts.py

Repo map

Path	Purpose
gsc/server.py	FastMCP tool surface and response normalization
gsc/accounts.py	Account config, auth loading, client construction
gsc/auth/	OAuth and service-account auth implementations
gsc/retry.py	Retry behavior for transient API failures
