Summary

MCP server now respects REMOTE_MODE, REMOTE_URL, and REMOTE_TOKEN settings
Adds Authorization header with Bearer token for all API calls in remote mode
Falls back to localhost with env var overrides when not in remote mode

Changes

Import loadSettings() from @claude-mem/shared
Check REMOTE_MODE and REMOTE_URL to determine backend URL
Add auth headers to both GET requests (via callBackendAPI) and POST requests (save_memory)

Test plan

Configure REMOTE_MODE: true, REMOTE_URL, and REMOTE_TOKEN in settings.json
Start MCP server and verify it connects to remote backend
Test search, timeline, get_observations tools (GET requests)
Test save_memory tool (POST request)
Verify local mode still works without remote settings

Closes #122

The MCP server was ignoring REMOTE_MODE, REMOTE_URL, and REMOTE_TOKEN
settings, always connecting to localhost. This fix:

- Loads settings via loadSettings() from @claude-mem/shared
- Uses REMOTE_URL when REMOTE_MODE is enabled
- Adds Authorization header with REMOTE_TOKEN for all API calls
- Falls back to localhost with env var overrides in local mode

Fixes #122
