+# FastMCP Implementation Plan for Agentic-Flow
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This document outlines a comprehensive plan to integrate the **fastmcp** TypeScript framework into agentic-flow, enhancing the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server infrastructure with improved performance, real-time streaming capabilities via HTTP transport, and optional security features.
+
+### Current State
+- **Architecture**: 4 MCP servers (claude-flow-sdk in-process, claude-flow, flow-nexus, agentic-payments as subprocesses)
+- **Tools**: 203+ MCP tools across multiple domains
+- **Implementation**: Custom MCP implementation using `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` and `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`
+- **Transport**: Primarily stdio for local/subprocess communication
+- **Deployment**: Local, Docker, and cloud environments
+
+### Target State
+- **Framework**: fastmcp TypeScript framework for standardized MCP server implementation
+- **Transport**: Dual support for stdio (local) and HTTP streaming (network/cloud)
+- **Security**: Optional authentication, authorization, and rate limiting layers
+- **Performance**: Reduced boilerplate, improved tooling, better debugging
+- **Maintainability**: Standardized patterns across all MCP servers
+
+### Benefits
+1. **Developer Experience**: Simplified tool definition with Zod schema validation
+2. **Performance**: Built-in optimizations, streaming support, progress notifications
+3. **Security**: Session-based authentication, tool-level authorization, rate limiting
+4. **Observability**: Enhanced logging, typed server events, health-check endpoints
+5. **Flexibility**: Support for both stdio and HTTP transports with automatic CORS
+6. **Testing**: Built-in CLI tools for development and debugging (`npx fastmcp dev`)
+
+---
+
+## 1. Research Summary
+
+### FastMCP Overview
+
+FastMCP (v3.19.0+) is a TypeScript framework built on top of `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` that eliminates boilerplate and provides intuitive APIs for building MCP servers.
+
+**Key Features:**
+- Simple tool, resource, and prompt definition
+- Schema validation support (Zod, ArkType, Valibot, Standard Schema)
+- Session-based authentication with tool-level access control
+- Multiple transport types: stdio, HTTP streaming (SSE deprecated)
+- Stateless mode for serverless deployments
+- Progress notifications and streaming output
+- Typed server events and prompt auto-completion
+- CORS enabled by default
+- Health-check endpoints
+- Built-in development CLI
+
+**Package Info:**
+- **npm**: `npm install fastmcp`
+- **GitHub**: https://github.com/punkpeye/fastmcp
+- **Documentation**: https://gofastmcp.com/
+- **Usage**: 382+ projects in npm registry
+
+### Transport Mechanisms
+
+#### 1. Stdio Transport (Default)
+- **Use Case**: Local command-line tools, desktop applications (Claude Desktop)
+- **Communication**: Standard input/output streams
+- **Advantages**: Simple, lightweight, perfect for subprocess communication
+- **Current Match**: Aligns with current agentic-flow subprocess servers
+
+#### 2. HTTP Streaming Transport (Recommended for Web)
+- **Use Case**: Network-based deployments, multiple clients, cloud services
+- **Communication**: Streamable HTTP with optional SSE for server-to-client streaming
+- **Advantages**: Bidirectional communication, scalable, web-friendly
+- **Target Use**: Flow-nexus cloud features, remote agent coordination
+
+#### 3. SSE Transport (Deprecated)
+- **Status**: Maintained for backward compatibility only
+- **Recommendation**: Use HTTP streaming for all new projects
+- **Migration Path**: Clients can fall back from HTTP to SSE for old servers
+
+### Security Features
+
+#### Authentication
+```typescript
+const server = new FastMCP({
+  name: "Secure Server",
+  authenticate: async (req) => {
+    const apiKey = req.headers.get('x-api-key');
+    if (!apiKey || apiKey !== process.env.API_KEY) {
+      throw new Response('Unauthorized', { status: 401 });
+    }
+    return { userId: 'user-123', role: 'admin' };
+  }
+});
+```
+
+#### Tool-Level Authorization
+```typescript
+server.addTool({
+  name: "admin-dashboard",
+  canAccess: (auth) => auth.role === 'admin',
+  execute: async () => { /* ... */ }
+});
+```
+
+#### Rate Limiting
+- TypeScript version: Middleware pattern support (not built-in like Python version)
+- Python version: Built-in token bucket algorithms, per-client identification
+- Implementation: Custom middleware or third-party libraries (express-rate-limit)
+
+#### OAuth Support
+- Built-in OAuth discovery endpoints
+- Supports MCP Specification 2025-03-26 and 2025-06-18
+

+
+### 2.2 Server Migration Plan
+
+#### Phase 1: In-Process Server (claude-flow-sdk)
+**Current**: Uses `@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk` with custom tool definitions
+**Target**: FastMCP with stdio transport, no authentication needed (in-process)
+
+```typescript
+// Before (current)
+import { createSdkMcpServer, tool } from '@anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+export const claudeFlowSdkServer = createSdkMcpServer({
+  name: 'claude-flow-sdk',
+  version: '1.0.0',
+  tools: [
+    tool('memory_store', '...', { key: z.string(), ... }, async (args) => { ... })
+  ]
+});
+
+// After (FastMCP)
+import { FastMCP } from 'fastmcp';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+const server = new FastMCP({
+  name: 'claude-flow-sdk',
+  version: '1.0.0'
+});
+
+server.addTool({
+  name: 'memory_store',
+  description: 'Store a value in persistent memory',
+  parameters: z.object({
+    key: z.string().describe('Memory key'),
+    value: z.string().describe('Value to store'),
+    namespace: z.string().optional().default('default'),
+    ttl: z.number().optional()
+  }),
+  execute: async ({ key, value, namespace, ttl }) => {
+    // Implementation
+    return `Stored ${key} in ${namespace}`;
+  }
+});
+
+server.start({ transportType: 'stdio' });
+```
+
+#### Phase 2: Subprocess Servers (claude-flow, agentic-payments)
+**Current**: Spawned as subprocesses with stdio communication
+**Target**: FastMCP with stdio transport, optional authentication
+
+```typescript
+// claude-flow server with optional auth
+import { FastMCP } from 'fastmcp';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+
+const server = new FastMCP({
+  name: 'claude-flow',
+  version: '2.0.0',
+  // Optional: Enable authentication for secure environments
+  authenticate: process.env.SECURE_MODE === 'true'
+    ? async (req) => {
+        const token = req.headers.get('authorization')?.replace('Bearer ', '');
+        if (!token || token !== process.env.CLAUDE_FLOW_TOKEN) {
+          throw new Response('Unauthorized', { status: 401 });
+        }
+        return { authenticated: true };
+      }
+    : undefined
+});
+
+// Tool definitions with progress reporting
+server.addTool({
+  name: 'swarm_init',
+  description: 'Initialize multi-agent swarm',
+  parameters: z.object({
+    topology: z.enum(['mesh', 'hierarchical', 'ring', 'star']),
+    maxAgents: z.number().default(8),
+    strategy: z.enum(['balanced', 'specialized', 'adaptive']).default('balanced')
+  }),
+  execute: async ({ topology, maxAgents, strategy }, { onProgress }) => {
+    onProgress?.({ progress: 0.2, message: 'Initializing topology...' });
+    // Initialize swarm
+    onProgress?.({ progress: 0.5, message: 'Spawning agents...' });
+    // Spawn agents
+    onProgress?.({ progress: 1.0, message: 'Swarm ready' });
+    return { swarmId: 'swarm-123', agents: maxAgents, topology };
+  }
+});
+
+server.start({ transportType: 'stdio' });
+```
+
+#### Phase 3: Cloud/Network Server (flow-nexus)
+**Current**: HTTP-based custom implementation
+**Target**: FastMCP with HTTP streaming transport, full authentication
+
+```typescript
+// flow-nexus cloud server with full security
+import { FastMCP } from 'fastmcp';
+import { z } from 'zod';
+import { verifyJWT, checkRateLimit } from './security';
+
+const server = new FastMCP({
+  name: 'flow-nexus',
+  version: '1.0.0',
+  authenticate: async (req) => {
+    // JWT-based authentication
+    const token = req.headers.get('authorization')?.replace('Bearer ', '');
+    if (!token) {
+      throw new Response('Missing token', { status: 401 });
+    }
+
+    const payload = await verifyJWT(token);
+    if (!payload) {
+      throw new Response('Invalid token', { status: 401 });
+    }
+
+    // Rate limiting check
+    const allowed = await checkRateLimit(payload.userId);
+    if (!allowed) {
+      throw new Response('Rate limit exceeded', { status: 429 });
+    }
+
+    return {
+      userId: payload.userId,
+      tier: payload.tier,
+      role: payload.role
+    };
+  }
+});
+
+// Tool with role-based access control
+server.addTool({
+  name: 'sandbox_create',
+  description: 'Create isolated code execution sandbox',
+  canAccess: (auth) => ['pro', 'enterprise'].includes(auth.tier),
+  parameters: z.object({
+    template: z.enum(['node', 'python', 'react', 'nextjs']),
+    name: z.string().optional(),
+    env_vars: z.record(z.string()).optional()
+  }),
+  execute: async ({ template, name, env_vars }, { onProgress, auth }) => {
+    onProgress?.({ progress: 0.1, message: 'Allocating sandbox...' });
+    // Create sandbox
+    onProgress?.({ progress: 0.5, message: 'Installing dependencies...' });
+    // Setup environment
+    onProgress?.({ progress: 1.0, message: 'Sandbox ready' });
+
+    return {
+      sandboxId: 'sandbox-456',
+      template,
+      userId: auth.userId,
+      url: `https://sandbox-456.flow-nexus.io`
+    };
+  }
+});
+
+// Start with HTTP streaming transport
+server.start({
+  transportType: 'http',
+  port: process.env.PORT || 8080,
+  host: '0.0.0.0'
+});
+```
+
+### 2.3 Security Architecture
+
+#### Authentication Layer
+
+```typescript
+// security/auth.ts
+import jwt from 'jsonwebtoken';
+
+export interface AuthContext {
+  userId: string;
+  tier: 'free' | 'pro' | 'enterprise';
+  role: 'user' | 'admin';
+  permissions: string[];
+}
+
+export async function verifyJWT(token: string): Promise<AuthContext | null> {
+  try {
+    const payload = jwt.verify(token, process.env.JWT_SECRET!) as any;
+    return {
+      userId: payload.sub,
+      tier: payload.tier || 'free',
+      role: payload.role || 'user',
+      permissions: payload.permissions || []
+    };
+  } catch {
+    return null;
+  }
+}
+
+export async function verifyAPIKey(apiKey: string): Promise<AuthContext | null> {
+  // Check against database or cache
+  const user = await db.users.findByAPIKey(apiKey);
+  if (!user) return null;
+
+  return {
+    userId: user.id,
+    tier: user.tier,
+    role: user.role,
+    permissions: user.permissions
+  };
+}
+```
+
+#### Rate Limiting
+
+```typescript
+// security/rate-limit.ts
+import { RedisClient } from 'redis';
+
+interface RateLimitConfig {
+  windowMs: number;
+  maxRequests: number;
+  keyPrefix: string;
+}
+
+export class RateLimiter {
+  private redis: RedisClient;
+
+  constructor(private config: RateLimitConfig) {
+    this.redis = new RedisClient(process.env.REDIS_URL);
+  }
+
+  async checkLimit(userId: string): Promise<boolean> {
+    const key = `${this.config.keyPrefix}:${userId}`;
+    const now = Date.now();
+    const windowStart = now - this.config.windowMs;
+
+    // Remove old entries
+    await this.redis.zremrangebyscore(key, 0, windowStart);
+
+    // Count requests in current window
+    const count = await this.redis.zcard(key);
+
+    if (count >= this.config.maxRequests) {
+      return false;
+    }
+
+    // Add current request
+    await this.redis.zadd(key, now, `${now}`);
+    await this.redis.expire(key, Math.ceil(this.config.windowMs / 1000));
+
+    return true;
+  }
+}
+
+// Usage
+const limiter = new RateLimiter({
+  windowMs: 60000, // 1 minute
+  maxRequests: 100,
+  keyPrefix: 'rate-limit'
+});
+
+export async function checkRateLimit(userId: string): Promise<boolean> {
+  return await limiter.checkLimit(userId);
+}
+```
+
+#### Tool Authorization
+
+```typescript
+// security/authorization.ts
+export interface Permission {
+  resource: string;
+  action: 'read' | 'write' | 'execute';
+}
+
+export function hasPermission(
+  auth: AuthContext,
+  required: Permission
+): boolean {
+  // Admin has all permissions
+  if (auth.role === 'admin') return true;
+
+  // Check tier-based permissions
+  const tierPermissions = {
+    free: ['swarm:read', 'memory:read', 'agent:read'],
+    pro: ['swarm:*', 'memory:*', 'agent:*', 'sandbox:*'],
+    enterprise: ['*']
+  };
+
+  const permissions = tierPermissions[auth.tier];
+  const pattern = `${required.resource}:${required.action}`;
+
+  return permissions.includes(pattern) ||
+         permissions.includes(`${required.resource}:*`) ||
+         permissions.includes('*');
+}
+
+// Tool-level authorization helper
+export function requirePermission(resource: string, action: string) {
+  return (auth: AuthContext) => hasPermission(auth, { resource, action });
+}
+```
+
+### 2.4 Transport Selection Strategy
+
+```typescript
+// config/transport.ts
+export interface TransportConfig {
+  type: 'stdio' | 'http';
+  port?: number;
+  host?: string;
+  enableAuth?: boolean;
+  enableCORS?: boolean;
+}
+
+export function selectTransport(): TransportConfig {
+  // Environment-based transport selection
+  const env = process.env.NODE_ENV || 'development';
+  const deploymentMode = process.env.DEPLOYMENT_MODE || 'local';
+
+  // Local subprocess: stdio
+  if (deploymentMode === 'local' || deploymentMode === 'subprocess') {
+    return {
+      type: 'stdio',
+      enableAuth: false
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Docker container: stdio or HTTP based on port
+  if (deploymentMode === 'docker') {
+    return {
+      type: process.env.MCP_PORT ? 'http' : 'stdio',
+      port: parseInt(process.env.MCP_PORT || '8080'),
+      host: '0.0.0.0',
+      enableAuth: env === 'production',
+      enableCORS: true
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Cloud deployment: HTTP with auth
+  if (deploymentMode === 'cloud') {
+    return {
+      type: 'http',
+      port: parseInt(process.env.PORT || '8080'),
+      host: '0.0.0.0',
+      enableAuth: true,
+      enableCORS: true
+    };
+  }
+
+  // Default to stdio
+  return {
+    type: 'stdio',
+    enableAuth: false
+  };
+}
+```

+- Progress reporting functional
+- Streaming operations work
+- Optional auth doesn't break existing workflows
+
+#### Phase 3: HTTP/Cloud Server (Week 6-7)
+**Target:** flow-nexus server (HTTP streaming, full auth)
+
+**Migration Steps:**
+1. Implement HTTP streaming transport
+2. Add JWT-based authentication
+3. Implement rate limiting with Redis
+4. Add role-based tool access control
+5. Setup CORS configuration
+6. Add health-check endpoints
+7. Implement session management
+8. Deploy to staging environment
+9. Load testing
+10. Production deployment
+
+**Security Features:**
+- JWT authentication
+- API key support
+- OAuth 2.0 integration
+- Per-user rate limiting
+- Tool-level authorization
+- Request logging
+- Audit trail
+
+**Success Criteria:**
+- HTTP transport working in cloud
+- Authentication prevents unauthorized access
+- Rate limiting prevents abuse
+- Multi-client support verified
+- Health checks operational
+- Performance acceptable under load
+
+#### Phase 4: Testing & Validation (Week 8)
+**Goals:**
+- Comprehensive integration testing
+- Performance benchmarking
+- Security audit
+- Documentation update
+
+**Testing Matrix:**
+| Server | Transport | Auth | Tests |
+|--------|-----------|------|-------|
+| claude-flow-sdk | stdio | None | Unit, Integration |
+| claude-flow | stdio | Optional | Unit, Integration, E2E |
+| agentic-payments | stdio | Optional | Unit, Integration |
+| flow-nexus | HTTP | Required | Unit, Integration, E2E, Load |
+
+**Performance Benchmarks:**
+- Tool invocation latency
+- Throughput (tools/second)
+- Memory usage
+- CPU utilization
+- Startup time
+- Subprocess spawn time
+- HTTP request latency
+
+**Security Tests:**
+- Authentication bypass attempts
+- Rate limit effectiveness
+- Authorization checks
+- Token expiration
+- CORS validation
+- Input sanitization
+
+#### Phase 5: Documentation & Rollout (Week 9-10)
+**Goals:**
+- Complete documentation
+- Migration guide for users
+- Training materials
+- Staged rollout
+
+**Documentation:**
+1. Architecture overview
+2. API reference for each server
+3. Authentication guide
+4. Transport selection guide
+5. Security best practices
+6. Migration guide from v1.x
+7. Troubleshooting guide
+8. Performance tuning guide
+
+**Rollout Strategy:**
+1. Beta release (10% users)
+2. Feedback collection
+3. Bug fixes
+4. Expanded rollout (50% users)
+5. Final validation
+6. Full rollout (100% users)
+7. Deprecate old implementation
+
+### 3.2 Backward Compatibility
+
+**Strategy:**
+- Maintain old implementation alongside FastMCP
+- Feature flag: `USE_FASTMCP=true/false`
+- Gradual migration path
+- Support both implementations for 2 releases
+
+**Feature Flag Implementation:**
+```typescript
+// src/mcp/index.ts
+import { getServerConfig } from './config';
+import { createLegacyServer } from './legacy';
+import { createFastMCPServer } from './fastmcp';
+
+export function createMCPServer(name: string) {
+  const config = getServerConfig();
+
+  if (config.useFastMCP) {
+    return createFastMCPServer(name);
+  } else {
+    return createLegacyServer(name);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Migration Timeline:**
+- **v2.0.0**: FastMCP available, old implementation default
+- **v2.1.0**: FastMCP default, old implementation available via flag
+- **v2.2.0**: FastMCP only, old implementation removed
+
+### 3.3 Rollback Plan
+
+**Triggers:**
+- Critical bugs in production
+- Performance degradation > 20%
+- Authentication vulnerabilities
+- Data loss or corruption
+
+**Rollback Procedure:**
+1. Set `USE_FASTMCP=false` environment variable
+2. Restart affected servers
+3. Validate old implementation working
+4. Investigate issue
+5. Fix and retest
+6. Re-enable FastMCP
+
+**Rollback Testing:**
+- Practice rollback in staging
+- Document time to rollback (target: < 5 minutes)
+- Validate no data loss during rollback

+
+## 8. Performance Optimization
+
+### 8.1 Connection Pooling
+
+```typescript

+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 8.2 Caching Layer
+
+```typescript
+// src/mcp/fastmcp/middleware/cache.ts

+}
+
+// Wrap tool execution with caching

+  });
+}
+```
+
+### 8.3 Request Batching
+
+```typescript
+// src/mcp/fastmcp/utils/batch.ts
+export class RequestBatcher {
+  private pending: Map<string, Promise<any>> = new Map();
+  private batchDelay: number;

+    }
+
+    // Create new batch
+    const promise = new Promise<T>((resolve, reject) => {
+      setTimeout(async () => {
+        try {
+          const result = await executor();
+          this.pending.delete(key);
