Battery ERP — Material, cell, pack, and supply-chain management with real-time

commodity pricing and Fabric Lakehouse analytics.

Covers the full battery value chain: lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, graphite

through cell chemistries (NMC-811, NCA, LFP, LMO) to battery packs with BOM costing,

supplier scoring, inventory management, and what-if cost scenarios.

Inventory adapters (REST + MCP)

Battery ERP is a domain library, not a hosted ERP. For SMS / text-line and agent workflows, a shared InventoryService sits under both a thin REST API and an MCP server. Full detail: docs/INTEGRATION.md.

SMS / ClickSend          Cursor / Claude (stdio MCP)
        │                         │
        ▼                         ▼
  REST API (port 8088)      battery_erp.mcp
        └──────────┬──────────────┘
                   ▼
           InventoryService
                   ▼
        InMemoryInventoryStore (demo)
                   ▼
          Human bin confirmation

Do not call MCP from a browser. Keep REST and MCP in separate terminals.

Install (macOS / zsh)

Use python3. Quote pip extras so zsh does not glob them:

cd ~/Desktop/icohangar-repos/battery-erp
python3 -m pip install -e '.[dev]'   # api + mcp + pytest

Terminal A — REST (text-line backend)

cd ~/Desktop/icohangar-repos/battery-erp
export BATTERY_ERP_CONFIRM_TOKEN=dev-secret
export BATTERY_ERP_AUDIT_LOG=/tmp/battery-erp-audit.jsonl
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m battery_erp.api
# Uvicorn → http://127.0.0.1:8088
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:8088/health
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:8088/inventory/lookup/lithium

Terminal B — MCP (agents / Cursor only)

Leave Terminal A running. In a new terminal:

cd ~/Desktop/icohangar-repos/battery-erp
export BATTERY_ERP_CONFIRM_TOKEN=dev-secret
PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m battery_erp.mcp

That process stays quiet on stdio — normal for MCP hosts. Do not paste this into the API terminal.

Cursor MCP config

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (absolute paths; python3 not python):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "battery-erp": {
      "command": "python3",
      "args": ["-m", "battery_erp.mcp"],
      "env": {
        "PYTHONPATH": "/Users/YOU/Desktop/icohangar-repos/battery-erp/src",
        "BATTERY_ERP_CONFIRM_TOKEN": "replace-me",
        "BATTERY_ERP_AUDIT_LOG": "/tmp/battery-erp-audit.jsonl"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then reload MCP servers in Cursor. Tools exposed: lookup_inventory, get_inventory_status, get_inventory_record, list_inventory, create_bin_check_request, record_bin_confirmation.
