Registry Review MCP Server

# Registry Review MCP Server

MCP server that automates carbon credit project registration reviews through an eight-stage workflow.

## Overview

The Registry Review MCP Server transforms a 6-8 hour manual document review into a guided workflow where AI handles document organization, data extraction, and consistency checking while humans provide expertise, judgment, and final approval.

**Core Capabilities:**
- Document discovery and intelligent classification
- Requirement mapping with semantic matching
- Evidence extraction with page citations
- Cross-document validation (dates, land tenure, project IDs)
- Structured report generation (Markdown + JSON)

## Quick Start

```bash
# Install dependencies
uv sync

# Run the MCP server
uv run python -m registry_review_mcp.server

# Run tests (expensive tests excluded by default)
uv run pytest
```

## Claude Desktop Integration

Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "registry-review": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory", "/path/to/regen-registry-review-mcp",
        "run", "python", "-m", "registry_review_mcp.server"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## The Eight-Stage Workflow

Each stage produces artifacts for human verification before proceeding. The workflow follows a collaboration model where AI handles tedious document processing while humans provide expertise and final judgment.

### Stage A: Initialize

Create a review session with project metadata and load the checklist template.

```
/A-initialize Botany Farm 2022-2023, /path/to/documents
```

**Output:** Session ID, project metadata, loaded checklist (23 requirements for Soil Carbon v1.2.2)

### Stage B: Document Discovery

Scan the documents directory, extract file metadata, and classify each document by type.

```
/B-document-discovery
```

**Agent Actions:**
- Recursively scan for PDFs, shapefiles, GeoJSON, spreadsheets
- Classify documents (project plan, baseline report, monitoring report, land tenure, etc.)
- Generate document inventory with confidence scores

**Human Actions:** Review classifications, mark documents as in-scope/ignored/pinned

**Output:** Document inventory with normalized names, types, and source references

### Stage C: Requirement Mapping

Connect discovered documents to specific checklist requirements using semantic matching.

```
/C-requirement-mapping
```

**Agent Actions:**
- Parse checklist into structured requirements with expected evidence types
- Analyze documents and suggest requirement → document mappings
- Flag requirements with no plausible matches

**Human Actions:** Confirm/reject suggested mappings, manually add missing mappings

**Output:** Mapping matrix linking each requirement to 0+ documents with confidence scores

### Stage D: Evidence Extraction

Extract key data points and text snippets from mapped documents.

```
/D-evidence-extraction
```

**Agent Actions:**
- Parse document content (PDF text, tables, metadata)
- Extract 0-3 evidence snippets per requirement with page citations
- Extract structured data: dates, locations, ownership info, numerical values

**Human Actions:** Review snippets, delete irrelevant ones, add manual notes

**Output:** Evidence database with snippets, citations, and structured data points

### Stage E: Cross-Validation

Verify consistency, completeness, and compliance across all extracted evidence.

```
/E-cross-validation
```

**Validation Checks:**
- **Date Alignment:** Sampling dates within ±120 days of imagery dates
- **Land Tenure:** Owner names consistent across documents (fuzzy matching)
- **Project ID:** Consistent project identifiers across all documents
- **Completeness:** Each requirement has mapped documents with sufficient evidence

**Output:** Validation results with pass/warning/fail flags and coverage statistics

### Stage F: Report Generation

Produce structured, auditable Registry Review Report.

```
/F-report-generation
```

**Output Formats:**
- **Markdown:** Human-readable report with executive summary, per-requirement findings, citations
- **JSON:** Machine-readable for audit trails and downstream systems

**Report Contents:** Project metadata, coverage statistics, requirement findings with evidence snippets, validation results, items requiring human review

### Stage G: Human Review

Expert validation, annotation, and revision handling.

```
/G-human-review
```

**Human Actions:**
- Review flagged items requiring judgment
- Override agent assessments where expert knowledge differs
- Request revisions from proponent if gaps identified
- Make final determination: Approve / Conditional / Reject / On Hold

**Output:** Finalized report with human annotations and approval decision

### Stage H: Completion

Finalize and archive the review.

```
/H-completion
```

**Agent Actions:**
- Lock finalized report
- Generate archive package with audit trail
- Prepare data for on-chain registration (if approved)

**Output:** Locked report, complete audit trail, archived session

### Quick Example

```
/A-initialize Botany Farm 2022-2023, /home/user/projects/botany-farm
/B-document-discovery
/C-requirement-mapping
/D-evidence-extraction
/E-cross-validation
/F-report-generation
```

Each stage auto-selects the most recent session, so you can run them in sequence without specifying session IDs.

## Available Tools

**Session Management:**
