## Design Patterns
### 1. Progressive Enhancement Architecture
The system implements graceful degradation with comprehensive fallback chains:
```python
# Example: Progressive search implementation
def search_with_fallback(query: str, path: str):
# Try enhanced search first
if ENHANCED_SEARCH_AVAILABLE:
result = enhanced_search_instance.search(query, path)
if result.success_rate > 0.8:
return result
# Fall back to ripgrep
if RIPGREP_AVAILABLE:
result = ripgrep_integration.search(query, path)
if result.success:
return result
# Final fallback to basic search
return basic_search(query, path)
```
### 2. Strategy Pattern
Multiple strategies for search, analysis, and processing:
```python
class SearchStrategy:
def search(self, context: SearchContext) -> List[SearchResult]:
raise NotImplementedError
class ExactSearchStrategy(SearchStrategy):
def search(self, context: SearchContext) -> List[SearchResult]:
# Implement exact pattern matching
class SemanticSearchStrategy(SearchStrategy):
def search(self, context: SearchContext) -> List[SearchResult]:
# Implement semantic similarity search
```
### 3. Plugin Architecture
Extensible design with optional dependencies:
```python
# Optional imports with graceful fallback
try:
import networkx as nx
NETWORKX_AVAILABLE = True
except ImportError:
NETWORKX_AVAILABLE = False
nx = None
# Usage with availability checking
def analyze_relationships():
if NETWORKX_AVAILABLE:
return networkx_analysis()
else:
return fallback_analysis()
```
### 4. Factory Pattern
Dynamic tool selection and configuration:
```python
class ToolFactory:
@staticmethod
def create_tool(tool_type: str, config: Dict) -> BaseTool:
if tool_type == "search":
return SearchTool(config)
elif tool_type == "analysis":
return AnalysisTool(config)
# ... more tool types
```
### 5. Observer Pattern
Progress monitoring and event handling:
```python
class ProgressMonitor:
def __init__(self):
self.observers = []
def add_observer(self, observer):
self.observers.append(observer)
def notify_progress(self, progress: float):
for observer in self.observers:
observer.on_progress(progress)
```

## Integration Patterns

```python
# FastMCP server setup
mcp = FastMCP("FastApply")
# Dynamic tool registration
if ENHANCED_SEARCH_AVAILABLE:
@mcp.tool()
async def enhanced_search(query: str, path: str = ".") -> str:
"""Enhanced multi-strategy code search."""
return await enhanced_search_instance.search(query, path)
if AST_INTELLIGENCE_AVAILABLE:
@mcp.tool()
async def llm_analyze_code(code: str, analysis_type: str) -> str:
"""LLM-enhanced code analysis."""
return await llm_engine.analyze_code(code, analysis_type)
```
### 2. External Service Integration
```python
# OpenAI integration for LLM capabilities
class OpenAIIntegration:
def __init__(self, api_key: str):
self.client = openai.OpenAI(api_key=api_key)
async def generate_rule(self, prompt: str) -> str:
"""Generate AST rules using OpenAI."""
response = await self.client.chat.completions.create(
model="gpt-4",
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
)
return response.choices[0].message.content
```
### 3. Database Integration
```python
# Qdrant integration for collective consciousness
class QdrantIntegration:
def __init__(self, url: str, api_key: str):
self.client = qdrant_client.QdrantClient(url=url, api_key=api_key)
async def store_pattern(self, pattern: str, metadata: Dict):
"""Store successful patterns for future reference."""
await self.client.upsert(
collection_name="patterns",
points=[qdrant_models.PointStruct(
id=uuid.uuid4().hex,
vector=self._embed(pattern),
payload={**metadata, "pattern": pattern}
)]
)
```
### 4. Caching Layer Integration
```python
# Multi-level caching implementation
class CacheManager:
def __init__(self):
self.memory_cache = LRUCache(maxsize=1000)
self.disk_cache = DiskCache("./cache")
async def get(self, key: str):
# Try memory cache first
if key in self.memory_cache:
return self.memory_cache[key]
# Try disk cache
result = await self.disk_cache.get(key)
if result:
self.memory_cache[key] = result
return result
return None
```
