# CLAUDE.md
## 🔴 CRITICAL Requirements
**MANDATORY before ANY code:**
1. TypeScript: NEVER use `any`. Use `unknown` or proper types
2. Security: NO API keys in logs. NO vulnerabilities
3. Validation: `pnpm run tsc && pnpm run lint && pnpm run test`
4. Tools limit: ≤20 (hard limit: 25)
**MANDATORY reads:**
- Start here: CLAUDE.md — Contributor doc map
- Tools → @docs/adding-tools.mdc
- Prompts → @docs/adding-prompts.mdc
- Resources → @docs/adding-resources.mdc
- Testing → @docs/testing.mdc
- PRs → @docs/pr-management.mdc
## 🟡 MANDATORY Workflow
```bash
# BEFORE coding (parallel execution)
cat docs/[component].mdc & ls -la neighboring-files & git status
# AFTER coding (sequential - fail fast)
pnpm run tsc && pnpm run lint && pnpm run test # ALL must pass
```

## AI-Powered Search Tools
**search_events** (`packages/mcp-server/src/tools/search-events/`):
- Natural language → DiscoverQL queries
- GPT-4o agent with structured outputs
- Tools: `datasetAttributes`, `otelSemantics`, `whoami`
- Requires: `OPENAI_API_KEY`
**search_issues** (`packages/mcp-server/src/tools/search-issues/`):
- Natural language → issue search syntax
- GPT-4o agent with structured outputs
- Tools: `issueFields`, `whoami`
- Requires: `OPENAI_API_KEY`
## 🟢 Key Commands
```bash
# Development
pnpm run dev # Start development
pnpm run build # Build all packages
pnpm run generate-otel-namespaces # Update OpenTelemetry docs
# Quality checks (combine for speed)
pnpm run tsc && pnpm run lint && pnpm run test
# Common workflows
pnpm run build && pnpm run test # Before PR
grep -r "TODO\|FIXME" src/ # Find tech debt
```
## Quick Reference
**Defaults:**
- Organization: `sentry`
- Project: `mcp-server`
- Transport: stdio
- Auth: access tokens (NOT OAuth)

## Rules
1. **Code**: Follow existing patterns. Check adjacent files
2. **Errors**: Try/catch all async. Log: `console.error('[ERROR]', error.message, error.stack)`
- Sentry API 429: Retry with exponential backoff
- Sentry API 401/403: Check token permissions
3. **Docs**: Update when changing functionality
4. **PR**: Follow `docs/pr-management.mdc` for commit/PR guidelines (includes AI attribution)
5. **Tasks**: Use TodoWrite for 3+ steps. Batch tool calls when possible
