refactor: trim internal-only exports from the public barrels (#203)

 - **Instructions:** Trimmed operator/install/deploy content (env-var setup, misconfiguration note, Alliance CLI index/rerank defaults, stderr logging config) from `CORE_SERVER_INSTRUCTIONS` and `ALLIANCE_INSTRUCTIONS_APPENDIX` — reduces per-session token cost; no behavior change. Replaced colliding Alliance appendix steps 4–5 with unnumbered "Manual Alliance flow" bullets (includes `PINECONE_DISABLE_SUGGEST_FLOW=true` escape clause). Full detail remains in [docs/CONFIGURATION.md](docs/CONFIGURATION.md).
 
+### Removed

+- **Breaking (library):** Trimmed internal-only re-exports from the package root and `/alliance` entry to shrink the public surface and blast radius: `trimOptional`, `createUnconfiguredAllianceContext` (core), and the concrete URL generators `generatorMailing`, `generatorSlackCpplang` (alliance). These were internal helpers, not part of the documented API; register built-ins via `registerBuiltinUrlGenerators` and build contexts via `createServer` / `createIsolatedContext`. A snapshot test now guards the runtime export surface so internal symbols cannot leak back in. See [MIGRATION.md](docs/MIGRATION.md#internal-only-re-exports-removed-203). (#203)

 `PineconeClient.query()` return types (`HybridQueryResult`, etc.) and all Zod response schemas remain on the public surface.
 
+### Internal-only re-exports removed (#203)
+
+**Who is affected:** Library embedders that imported any of these internal helpers from the package root or `/alliance`:
+
+- `trimOptional` (a string-trim helper)
+- `createUnconfiguredAllianceContext` (an internal context factory used by setup guards)
+- `generatorMailing`, `generatorSlackCpplang` (the concrete Alliance URL generators)
+
+**After:** none of these are part of the supported surface. Trim whitespace yourself, build contexts with `createServer` / `createIsolatedContext`, and register the built-in URL generators with `registerBuiltinUrlGenerators` (the documented entry point) instead of importing the individual generators. The public runtime export surface is now guarded by a snapshot test so internal symbols cannot leak back in.
+
 ## Unreleased: `ServerContext` instance APIs (initial)
 
 **Rationale:** Process-global singletons (Pinecone client slot, config, URL registry, suggest-flow gate, namespaces cache) complicate testing and multi-tenant embedding. The initial milestone introduces an opt-in **`ServerContext`**; legacy module facades are deprecated since **0.3.0** (see [Legacy module-facade deprecations](#030-legacy-module-facade-deprecations)).
