51
+
52
+ ## MCP ENGINEERING PRINCIPLES
53
+
54
+ ### 1. Tool-First Development
55
+ Every feature starts with MCP tool definition:
56
+ ```typescript
57
+ // Define tool with Zod schema
58
+ const GetDataArgs = z.object({
59
+ param: z.string().describe('Parameter description')
60
+ });
61
+
62
+ // Implement handler calling controller
63
+ async function handleGetData(args: GetDataArgsType) {
64
+ const result = await controller.getData(args);
65
+ return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: result.content }] };
66
+ }
67
+
68
+ // Register with server
69
+ server.tool('get_data', 'Tool description', GetDataArgs.shape, handleGetData);
70
+ ```
71
+
72
+ ### 2. Layered Architecture Enforcement
73
+ - **CLI Layer**: Parse arguments → Call controllers → Handle CLI errors
74
+ - **Tools Layer**: Validate MCP args → Call controllers → Format MCP response
75
+ - **Controllers**: Business logic → Call services → Return standardized response
76
+ - **Services**: Pure API calls → Minimal logic → Return raw data
77
+
78
+ ### 3. Transport Agnostic Design
79
+ All MCP tools must work identically across:
80
+ - **STDIO Transport**: `npm run mcp:stdio` for AI assistant integration
81
+ - **HTTP Transport**: `npm run mcp:http` for web-based connections
82
+ - **CLI Interface**: `npm run cli -- command` for direct usage
83
+
84
+ ### 4. Error Handling Standards
85
+ ```typescript
86
+ // Controller pattern
87
+ export async function getData(options: GetDataOptions): Promise<ControllerResponse> {
88
+ try {
89
+ // Business logic here
90
+ return { content: formattedResult };
91
+ } catch (error) {
92
+ throw handleControllerError(error, {
93
+ entityType: 'DataType',
94
+ operation: 'getData',
95
+ source: 'controllers/data.controller.ts'
96
+ });
97
+ }
98
+ }
99
+ ```
100
+
101
+ ## AUTONOMOUS IMPLEMENTATION WORKFLOW
102
+
103
+ ### 1. ANALYZE
104
+ - **Read existing patterns**: Examine current IP address tools for architecture guidance
105
+ - **Understand requirements**: Parse GitHub event context for specific needs
106
+ - **Map dependencies**: Identify what services, types, and utilities are needed
107
+ - **Plan architecture**: Design tool → controller → service chain
108
+
109
+ ### 2. RESEARCH & DESIGN
110
+ - **External APIs**: Research target APIs for schemas and error patterns
111
+ - **Zod Schemas**: Design comprehensive argument validation
112
+ - **Type Safety**: Define interfaces for all data flows
113
+ - **Error Scenarios**: Plan error handling for all failure modes
114
+
115
+ ### 3. IMPLEMENT
116
+ - **Service Layer**: Pure API interaction with proper error handling
117
+ - **Controller Layer**: Business logic with standardized response format
118
+ - **Tool Layer**: MCP compliant tool with Zod validation
119
+ - **CLI Layer**: Commander.js interface for direct usage
120
+ - **Tests**: Comprehensive unit and integration test coverage
121
+
122
+ ### 4. VALIDATE & DEPLOY
123
+ - **Quality Checks**: Run lint, format, test, build successfully
124
+ - **MCP Testing**: Use `npm run mcp:inspect` for interactive tool testing
125
+ - **Transport Testing**: Verify STDIO and HTTP transport functionality
126
+ - **Documentation**: Update README and tool descriptions
127
+
128
+ ## DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
129
+
130
+ ### TypeScript Excellence
131
+ - **Strict Mode**: All code must compile with strict TypeScript settings
132
+ - **No Any Types**: Use proper typing for all function parameters and returns
133
+ - **Interface Definitions**: Define clear interfaces for all data structures
134
+ - **Generic Constraints**: Use generics appropriately for reusable code
135
+
136
+ ### MCP Protocol Compliance
137
+ - **Tool Registration**: Use proper `server.tool()` registration pattern
138
+ - **Argument Schemas**: All tools must have complete Zod schemas
139
+ - **Response Format**: Return standardized MCP content blocks
140
+ - **Error Handling**: Use `formatErrorForMcpTool()` for consistent error responses
141
+
142
+ ### Testing Requirements
143
+ - **Unit Tests**: Test controllers with mocked service calls
144
+ - **Integration Tests**: Test CLI commands with real dependencies
145
+ - **Tool Tests**: Test MCP tools end-to-end with sample data
146
+ - **Coverage Target**: Maintain >80% test coverage
147
+
148
