**Created:** 2025-10-19
**Version:** 1.0.0
**Estimated Effort:** 3-4 weeks (24-32 hours active work)

---

## Executive Summary

Svrnty.MCP is a **standalone .NET library** implementing the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server functionality. It is designed to be:

- **Reusable** across any .NET project
- **Modular** with clean separation of concerns
- **Scalable** with built-in permission and rate limiting
- **Secure** with deny-by-default security model
- **Self-contained** with complete documentation and examples

**First Use Case:** CODEX MCP Gateway (makes CODEX knowledge accessible to all AI agents)

**Future Use Cases:** Any .NET application wanting to expose tools/resources via MCP protocol

## Test-Driven Development Strategy

### TDD Principles (CODEX RULE #3)

**Mandatory workflow:**
1. **RED:** Write test that fails
2. **Verify RED:** Run test, confirm failure
3. **GREEN:** Write minimal code to pass
4. **Verify GREEN:** Run test, confirm success
5. **REFACTOR:** Improve code, keep tests green
6. **REPEAT:** Next requirement

### Test Organization

```

│   ├── Abstractions/           # Interface behavior tests
│   ├── Models/                 # Model validation tests

```

### Test Coverage Goals

- **Core:** >95% (pure logic, easy to test)
- **Infrastructure:** >90% (some I/O dependencies)
- **AspNetCore:** >85% (middleware has framework dependencies)
- **Overall:** >90%

### Testing Tools

- **xUnit:** Test framework (CODEX-approved)
- **Moq:** Mocking library (CODEX-approved)
- **FluentAssertions:** Assertion library (optional, check approval)

## AGENT-PRIMER.md Specifications

### Purpose

Enable AI agents to automatically configure Svrnty.MCP for any target system by:
1. Analyzing the system
2. Generating configuration
3. Creating sample tools
4. Setting up environment

### Structure

```markdown
# Svrnty.MCP Agent Primer

**For AI Agents:** This file guides automated setup of Svrnty.MCP.

## Step 1: System Analysis

**Commands to run:**
```bash
dotnet --version                              # Check .NET SDK
ls -la [target-project-path]                  # Analyze structure
cat [target-project]/*.csproj                 # Read dependencies
cat [target-project]/appsettings.json         # Check configuration
```

**Detect:**
- .NET SDK version (require 8.0+)
- Project type (Console, ASP.NET Core, Worker)
- Database (PostgreSQL, SQL Server, None)
- Authentication (Keycloak, JWT, None)
- Operating system

## Step 2: Generate Configuration

**Based on analysis, generate:**

### For ASP.NET Core Projects:
- `appsettings.json` MCP section
- `Program.cs` AddMcpServer() call
- Sample controller integration

### For Console Projects:
- `mcp-config.json`
- `Program.cs` standalone server
- HTTP transport setup

**Templates:** See `templates/` folder

## Step 3: Create Sample Tools

**Generate based on detected features:**

**If database detected:**
```csharp
// Tools/QueryDatabaseTool.cs
public class QueryDatabaseTool : IMcpTool
{
    public string Name => "query_database";
    // ... implementation
}
```

**If API detected:**
```csharp
// Tools/CallApiTool.cs
public class CallApiTool : IMcpTool
{
    public string Name => "call_api";
    // ... implementation
}
```

**If git repository detected:**
```csharp
// Tools/SearchRepositoryTool.cs
public class SearchRepositoryTool : IMcpTool
{
    public string Name => "search_repo";
    // ... implementation
}
```

## Step 4: Setup Development Environment

**Generate:**
- `.editorconfig` (if not exists)
- `launchSettings.json` (for debugging)
- `README.md` (project-specific)
- `run-mcp-server.sh` (startup script)

## Step 5: Validation

**Run automated tests:**
```bash
dotnet build                        # Compile
dotnet test                         # Run tests
./run-mcp-server.sh --test         # Test connectivity
```

## Example: CODEX Integration

**Detected:**
- ASP.NET Core 8 project
- PostgreSQL database
- REST API at http://localhost:5050
- Semantic search capability

**Generated:**
- CodexMcpServer.cs
- 6 tools: search_codex, get_document, list_documents, search_by_tag, get_document_sections, list_tags
- codex-mcp-config.json with permission model
- Integration tests

**Output:** `samples/CodexMcpServer/` ready to run
```

### Implementation

The AGENT-PRIMER.md will include:
- Detailed system analysis commands
- Decision trees for configuration generation
- Complete templates for all scenarios
- Validation procedures
- Example outputs for common cases

---

## CODEX Integration

### Integration Approach

**Option 1: NuGet Package (Production)**
```bash
dotnet add package Svrnty.MCP.AspNetCore
```

**Option 2: Project Reference (Development)**
```bash
dotnet add reference ../Svrnty.MCP/src/Svrnty.MCP.AspNetCore/Svrnty.MCP.AspNetCore.csproj
```

### Sample Tool Implementation

```csharp
using Svrnty.MCP.Core.Abstractions;

public class SearchCodexTool : IMcpTool
{
    private readonly HttpClient _httpClient;

    public string Name => "search_codex";
    public string Description => "Search CODEX knowledge base";

    public async Task<McpResponse> Execute(McpRequest request)
    {
        var query = request.Params["query"];
        var limit = request.Params["limit"] ?? 10;

        var response = await _httpClient.PostAsJsonAsync(
            "http://localhost:5050/api/search/hybrid",
            new { query, limit }
        );

        var result = await response.Content.ReadFromJsonAsync<SearchResult>();
        return new McpResponse { Result = result };
    }
}
```

## Technology Stack

### Core Dependencies (CODEX-Approved)

- .NET 8.0 SDK
- C# 11
- System.Text.Json (built-in)
- xUnit (testing)
- Moq (mocking)

### New Dependencies (Require Approval via ADR)

- **MCP SDK** (if available for .NET)
  - Alternative: Implement MCP protocol directly
  - License: Verify open source
  - Tier: Core (essential for protocol)

- **FluentAssertions** (optional, testing)
  - License: Apache 2.0
  - Purpose: Better test assertions
  - Tier: Development only

### CODEX RULE #1 Compliance

All new dependencies must be:
1. Documented in ADR
2. Added to CODEX tech stack
3. Approved before use
4. CODEX-approved alternatives used if available
