Applied automated linting and formatting:
- Fixed missing newlines at end of files
- Adjusted line wrapping for better readability
- Fixed multi-line string formatting in tests
- No functional changes, only style improvements
All 43 tests still passing after formatting changes.
Based on latest PR #306 review feedback:
Fixed Issues:
- Replaced last remaining basic error handling with MCPErrorFormatter
in version_tools.py get_version function
- Added proper error handling for invalid env vars in get_max_polling_attempts
- Improved type hints with TaskUpdateFields TypedDict for better validation
- All tools now consistently use get_default_timeout() (verified with grep)
Test Improvements:
- Added comprehensive tests for MCPErrorFormatter utility (10 tests)
- Added tests for timeout_config utility (13 tests)
- All 43 MCP tests passing with new utilities
- Tests verify structured error format and timeout configuration
Type Safety:
- Created TaskUpdateFields TypedDict to specify exact allowed fields
- Documents valid statuses and assignees in type comments
- Improves IDE support and catches type errors at development time
This completes all priority actions from the review:
✅ Fixed inconsistent timeout usage (was already done)
✅ Fixed error handling inconsistency
✅ Improved type hints for update_fields
✅ Added tests for utility modules
Comprehensive update to MCP server error handling:
Error Handling Improvements:
- Applied MCPErrorFormatter to all remaining MCP tool files
- Replaced all hardcoded timeout values with configurable timeout system
- Converted all simple string errors to structured error format
- Added proper httpx exception handling with detailed context
Tools Updated:
- document_tools.py: All 5 document management tools
- version_tools.py: All 4 version management tools
- feature_tools.py: Project features tool
- project_tools.py: Remaining 3 project tools (get, list, delete)
- task_tools.py: Remaining 4 task tools (get, list, update, delete)
Test Improvements:
- Removed backward compatibility checks from all tests
- Tests now enforce structured error format (dict not string)
- Any string error response is now considered a bug
- All 20 tests passing with new strict validation
This completes the error handling refactor for all MCP tools,
ensuring consistent client experience and better debugging.
Critical improvements to MCP server reliability and client experience:
Error Handling:
- Created MCPErrorFormatter for consistent error responses across all tools
- Provides structured errors with type, message, details, and actionable suggestions
- Helps clients (like Claude Code) understand and handle failures gracefully
- Categorizes errors (connection_timeout, validation_error, etc.) for better debugging
Timeout Configuration:
- Centralized timeout config with environment variable support
- Different timeouts for regular operations vs polling operations
- Configurable via MCP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT, MCP_CONNECT_TIMEOUT, etc.
- Prevents indefinite hangs when services are unavailable
Module Registration:
- Distinguishes between ImportError (acceptable) and code errors (must fix)
- SyntaxError/NameError/AttributeError now halt execution immediately
- Prevents broken code from silently failing in production
Polling Safety:
- Fixed project creation polling with exponential backoff
- Handles API unavailability with proper error messages
- Maximum attempts configurable via MCP_MAX_POLLING_ATTEMPTS
Response Normalization:
- Fixed inconsistent response handling in list_tasks
- Validates and normalizes different API response formats
- Clear error messages when response format is unexpected
These changes address critical issues from PR review while maintaining
backward compatibility. All 20 existing tests pass.
- Create test structure mirroring features folder organization
- Add tests for document tools (create, list, update, delete)
- Add tests for version tools (create, list, restore, invalid field handling)
- Add tests for task tools (create with sources, list with filters, update, delete)
- Add tests for project tools (create with polling, list, get)
- Add tests for feature tools (get features with various structures)
- Mock HTTP client for all external API calls
- Test both success and error scenarios
- 100% test coverage for critical tool functions
- Add explicit type annotations for params dictionaries to resolve mypy errors
- Remove trailing whitespace from blank lines (W293 ruff warnings)
- Ensure type safety in task_tools.py and document_tools.py
Update MCP server to use the new modular tool structure:
- Projects and tasks from existing modules
- Documents and versions from new modules
- Feature management from standalone module
Remove all feature flag logic as separated tools are now default.
Extract get_project_features as a standalone tool with enhanced
documentation explaining feature structures and usage patterns.
Features track functional components like auth, api, and database.
Extract document management functionality into focused tools:
- create_document: Create new documents with metadata
- list_documents: List all documents in a project
- get_document: Retrieve specific document details
- update_document: Modify existing documents
- delete_document: Remove documents from projects
Extract version control functionality:
- create_version: Create immutable snapshots
- list_versions: View version history
- get_version: Retrieve specific version content
- restore_version: Rollback to previous versions
Includes improved documentation and error messages based on testing.
The consolidated project module contained all project, task, document,
version, and feature management in a single 922-line file. This has been
replaced with focused, single-purpose tools in separate modules.
- Rename src/mcp to src/mcp_server for clarity
- Update all internal imports to use new path
- Create features/projects directory for modular tool organization
- Add separate, simple project tools (create, list, get, delete, update)
- Keep consolidated tools for backward compatibility (via env var)
- Add USE_SEPARATE_PROJECT_TOOLS env var to toggle between approaches
The new separate tools:
- Solve the async project creation context loss issue
- Provide clearer, single-purpose interfaces
- Remove complex PRP examples for simplicity
- Handle project creation polling automatically
- Fix parameter naming confusion in RAG tools (source → source_domain)
- Add clarification that source_domain expects domain names not IDs
- Improve manage_versions documentation with clear examples
- Add better error messages for validation failures
- Enhance manage_document with non-PRP examples
- Add comprehensive documentation to get_project_features
- Fix content parameter type in manage_versions to accept Any type
These changes address usability issues discovered during testing without
breaking existing functionality.
- Consolidated multiple MCP modules into unified project_module
- Removed redundant project, task, document, and version modules
- Identified critical issue with async project creation losing context
- Updated CLAUDE.md with project instructions
This commit captures the current state before refactoring to split
consolidated tools into separate operations for better clarity and
to solve the async project creation context issue.
- Set hpack and httpcore loggers to WARNING level
- These libraries produce excessive protocol-level debug output
- Improves signal-to-noise ratio in logs
- Read LOG_LEVEL from environment with INFO as default
- Use getattr to safely convert string to logging level constant
- Supports DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL levels
- Falls back to INFO if invalid level specified
This minimal change allows debug logs to appear when LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
is set in the .env file, fixing the issue where debug messages were
being filtered out.
- Add is_binary_file() method to URLHandler to detect 40+ binary extensions
- Update RecursiveCrawlStrategy to filter binary URLs before crawl queue
- Add comprehensive unit tests for binary file detection
- Prevents net::ERR_ABORTED errors when crawler encounters ZIP, PDF, etc.
This fixes the issue where the crawler was treating binary file URLs
(like .zip downloads) as navigable web pages, causing errors in crawl4ai.
- Implement fail-fast error handling for configuration errors
- Distinguish between critical config errors (fail) and network issues (use defaults)
- Add detailed error logging with stack traces for debugging
- Document new crawler settings in .env.example
- Add inline comments explaining safe defaults
Critical configuration errors (ValueError, KeyError, TypeError) now fail fast
as per alpha principles, while transient errors still fall back to safe defaults
with prominent error logging.
Consolidate concurrent crawling limits to use single database setting
instead of hardcoded special case for documentation sites.
Changes:
- Remove hardcoded 20 concurrent limit for documentation sites
- Let strategies use CRAWL_MAX_CONCURRENT from database (default: 10)
- Apply consistent concurrency across all site types
- Improve code formatting and consistency
This fixes Playwright browser crashes caused by excessive concurrent
pages on documentation sites and provides single configuration point
for tuning crawler performance.
* Create dependabot.yml
Currently watches for updates in github actions, and current iteration, present in the root folder. Commented expansion on how to maintain previous iterations addded.
* CI for local development
* CI for docker build
* Use matrix strategy on docker build
Docker version uses 3.12, so its interesting to ensure it properly works with this version
* Enable python 3.10 backporting
* In the MCP Streamlit page, added instructios for use in Claude Code.
