# Tracking Tools Implementation (T033-T035)
## Overview
This document describes the implementation of three MCP tools for vendor tracking and deployment recording in the Codebase MCP Server.
**Tasks Completed:**
- T033: `record_deployment` - Record deployment events with vendor/work item relationships
- T034: `query_vendor_status` - Query vendor operational status (<1ms target)
- T035: `update_vendor_status` - Update vendor status with optimistic locking
**Location:** `/Users/cliffclarke/Claude_Code/codebase-mcp/src/mcp/tools/tracking.py`
## Architecture
### MCP Tool Pattern
All three tools follow the standard FastMCP pattern:
```python
@mcp.tool()
async def tool_name(
param1: Type1,
param2: Type2 | None = None,
ctx: Context | None = None,
) -> dict[str, Any]:
"""Tool description.
Args:
param1: Description
param2: Optional description
ctx: FastMCP context for logging (injected)
Returns:
Dictionary matching MCP contract
Raises:
ValueError: Description
RuntimeError: Description
Performance:
Target: <Xms p95 latency
Requirements:
FR-XXX (requirement description)
"""
```
### Type Safety Features
1. **Complete Type Annotations**: All parameters and return types explicitly typed
2. **Pydantic Validation**: Input metadata validated via Pydantic models from contracts
3. **UUID Conversion**: String UUIDs converted to UUID objects with error handling
4. **Commit Hash Validation**: Regex pattern validation for 40-char lowercase hex
5. **Status Validation**: Enum-based validation for vendor status values
### Error Handling Strategy
```python
# Service Layer Exceptions -> MCP Tool Exceptions
VendorNotFoundError -> ValueError (404)
OptimisticLockError -> RuntimeError (409)
ValidationError -> ValueError (400)
InvalidDeploymentDataError -> ValueError (400)
```
### Dual Logging Pattern
Each tool uses two logging mechanisms:
1. **FastMCP Context Logging** (`ctx.info()`, `ctx.error()`):
- Sent to MCP client (Claude Desktop)
- Real-time feedback during tool execution
- User-friendly messages
2. **Python File Logging** (`logger.info()`, `logger.error()`):
- Written to `/tmp/codebase-mcp.log`
- Detailed diagnostic information
- Structured extra fields for debugging
Example:
```python
if ctx:
await ctx.info(f"Querying vendor status: {name}")
logger.info(
"query_vendor_status called",
extra={"vendor_name": name},
)
```
## Tool Implementations
### T033: record_deployment
**Purpose:** Record deployment events with PR details, test results, and relationships
**Performance Target:** <200ms p95 latency
**Key Features:**
- Validates deployment metadata using `DeploymentMetadata` Pydantic model
- Validates commit hash format (40 lowercase hex characters)
- Creates many-to-many links to vendors and work items
- Returns complete deployment event with relationship IDs
**Parameters:**
```python
deployed_at: datetime # Deployment timestamp (UTC)
metadata: dict[str, Any] # DeploymentMetadata structure
vendor_ids: list[str] | None # Vendor UUIDs (optional)
work_item_ids: list[str] | None # Work item UUIDs (optional)
created_by: str = "claude-code" # AI client identifier
ctx: Context | None = None # FastMCP context
```
**Response Structure:**
```python
{
"id": "uuid-string",
"deployed_at": "2025-10-10T18:00:00Z",
"commit_hash": "84b04732a1f5e9c8d3b2a0e6f7c8d9e0a1b2c3d4",
"metadata": {
"pr_number": 42,
"pr_title": "feat: add feature",
"commit_hash": "...",
"test_summary": {"unit": 150, "integration": 30},
"constitutional_compliance": true
},
"vendor_ids": ["uuid1", "uuid2"],
"work_item_ids": ["uuid3", "uuid4"],
"created_at": "2025-10-10T18:00:00Z",
"created_by": "claude-code"
}
```
**Error Cases:**
- Invalid metadata structure → `ValueError`
- Invalid commit hash format → `ValueError`
- Invalid UUID format → `ValueError`
- Duplicate vendor/work item IDs → `ValueError`
- Referenced entity not found → `ValueError`
### T034: query_vendor_status
**Purpose:** Query vendor operational status with <1ms response time
**Performance Target:** <1ms p95 latency (single vendor query)
**Key Features:**
- Optimized query using unique index on `vendor_extractors.name`
- Returns complete vendor metadata including test results
- Minimal latency for real-time status checks
**Parameters:**
```python
name: str # Unique vendor name
ctx: Context | None = None # FastMCP context
```
**Response Structure:**
```python
{
"id": "uuid-string",
"version": 5,
"name": "ADP Vendor",
"status": "operational",
"extractor_version": "2.3.1",
"metadata": {
"format_support": {
"excel": true,
"csv": true,
"pdf": false,
"ocr": false
},
"test_results": {
"passing": 42,
"total": 45,
"skipped": 2
},
"extractor_version": "2.3.1",
"manifest_compliant": true
},
"created_at": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z",
"updated_at": "2025-10-10T12:30:00Z",
"created_by": "claude-code"
}
```
**Error Cases:**
- Empty vendor name → `ValueError`
- Vendor not found → `ValueError`
### T035: update_vendor_status
**Purpose:** Update vendor status with optimistic locking to prevent conflicts
**Performance Target:** <100ms p95 latency
**Key Features:**
- Optimistic locking via version checking
- Partial updates (only provided fields modified)
- Metadata validation via Pydantic
- Merge updates with existing metadata
**Parameters:**
```python
name: str # Unique vendor name
version: int # Expected version for locking
status: str | None = None # New status (optional)
metadata: dict[str, Any] | None = None # Updated metadata (optional)
updated_by: str = "claude-code" # AI client identifier
ctx: Context | None = None # FastMCP context
```
**Response Structure:**
Same as `query_vendor_status` with incremented `version` field
**Error Cases:**
- Invalid version (<1) → `ValueError`
- Invalid status → `ValueError`
- No updates provided → `ValueError`
- Vendor not found → `ValueError`
- Version mismatch → `RuntimeError` (optimistic lock conflict)
- Invalid metadata → `ValueError`
## Helper Functions
### _vendor_to_dict
Converts SQLAlchemy `VendorExtractor` model to MCP contract dictionary.
**Implementation:**
```python
def _vendor_to_dict(vendor: Any) -> dict[str, Any]:
return {
"id": str(vendor.id),
"version": vendor.version,
"name": vendor.name,
"status": vendor.status,
"extractor_version": vendor.extractor_version,
"metadata": vendor.metadata_,
"created_at": vendor.created_at.isoformat(),
"updated_at": vendor.updated_at.isoformat(),
"created_by": vendor.created_by,
}
```
### _deployment_to_dict
Converts SQLAlchemy `DeploymentEvent` model to MCP contract dictionary.
**Implementation:**
```python
def _deployment_to_dict(
deployment: Any,
vendor_ids: list[UUID],
work_item_ids: list[UUID]
) -> dict[str, Any]:
return {
"id": str(deployment.id),
"deployed_at": deployment.deployed_at.isoformat(),
"commit_hash": deployment.commit_hash,
"metadata": deployment.metadata_,
"vendor_ids": [str(vid) for vid in vendor_ids],
"work_item_ids": [str(wid) for wid in work_item_ids],
"created_at": deployment.created_at.isoformat(),
"created_by": deployment.created_by,
}
```
### _validate_commit_hash
Validates git commit hash format (40 lowercase hex characters).
**Implementation:**
```python
COMMIT_HASH_PATTERN = re.compile(r"^[a-f0-9]{40}$")
def _validate_commit_hash(commit_hash: str) -> None:
if not COMMIT_HASH_PATTERN.match(commit_hash):
raise ValueError(
f"Invalid commit hash format: {commit_hash}. "
"Must be 40 lowercase hexadecimal characters."
)
```
## Integration Points
### Database Session Management
All tools use `get_session_factory()()` context manager:
```python
async with get_session_factory()() as db:
result = await service_function(param, db)
await db.commit()
```
**Key Points:**
- Automatic transaction management (commit on success, rollback on error)
- Connection pooling for performance
- Proper cleanup via context manager
### Service Layer Integration
Tools delegate business logic to service functions:
| Tool | Service Function | Module |
|------|-----------------|---------|
| `record_deployment` | `create_deployment()` | `src.services.deployment` |
| `query_vendor_status` | `get_vendor_by_name()` | `src.services.vendor` |
| `update_vendor_status` | `update_vendor_status()` | `src.services.vendor` |
**Note:** The MCP tool `update_vendor_status` imports the service function with an alias to avoid naming conflict:
```python
from src.services.vendor import (
update_vendor_status as update_vendor_service,
)
```
### Pydantic Schema Integration
Tools import Pydantic models from contracts:
```python
from pydantic_schemas import (
DeploymentMetadata,
VendorMetadata,
VendorStatus,
)
```
**Path Configuration:**
```python
specs_contracts_path = (
Path(__file__).parent.parent.parent.parent
/ "specs"
/ "003-database-backed-project"
/ "contracts"
)
sys.path.insert(0, str(specs_contracts_path))
```
**Note:** A symlink was created to resolve the hyphen-in-filename issue:
```bash
specs/003-database-backed-project/contracts/pydantic_schemas.py -> pydantic-schemas.py
```
## Server Registration
The tools are registered with FastMCP server in `src/mcp/server_fastmcp.py`:
```python
def main() -> None:
try:
logger.info("Importing tool modules...")
import src.mcp.tools.configuration # noqa: F401
import src.mcp.tools.indexing # noqa: F401
import src.mcp.tools.search # noqa: F401
import src.mcp.tools.tasks # noqa: F401
import src.mcp.tools.tracking # noqa: F401 # NEW
logger.info("✓ Tool modules imported successfully")
```
Expected tools list updated to include:
- `query_vendor_status`
- `record_deployment`
- `update_vendor_status`
## Testing
### Import Validation
```bash
python3 -c "from src.mcp.tools.tracking import record_deployment, query_vendor_status, update_vendor_status"
```
### Type Safety Validation
```bash
python -m mypy src/mcp/tools/tracking.py --strict
```
**Status:** ✓ All type checks pass
### Commit Hash Validation Tests
```python
# Valid: 40 lowercase hex
_validate_commit_hash('84b04732a1f5e9c8d3b2a0e6f7c8d9e0a1b2c3d4') # ✓
# Invalid: too short
_validate_commit_hash('invalid') # → ValueError
# Invalid: uppercase
_validate_commit_hash('84B04732A1F5E9C8D3B2A0E6F7C8D9E0A1B2C3D4') # → ValueError
```
## Performance Characteristics

- Context injection for logging
- Automatic schema generation
## Known Issues and Limitations
### 1. Pydantic Schema Import
**Issue:** The contracts file is named `pydantic-schemas.py` with a hyphen, which Python cannot import directly.
**Solution:** Created a symlink `pydantic_schemas.py -> pydantic-schemas.py` in the contracts directory.
**Impact:** All service modules and MCP tools can now import using `from pydantic_schemas import ...`
### 2. Function Naming Conflict
**Issue:** The MCP tool `update_vendor_status` has the same name as the service function `update_vendor_status`.
**Solution:** Import service function with alias:
```python
from src.services.vendor import update_vendor_status as update_vendor_service
```
**Impact:** No conflicts, clear distinction between tool and service layers.
### 3. mypy Errors in server_fastmcp.py
**Issue:** mypy reports errors for `init_db_connection` and `close_db_connection` imports in `server_fastmcp.py`.
**Status:** Pre-existing issue, unrelated to tracking tools implementation.
**Impact:** None on tracking tools functionality.
