# Codebase Discovery Report
Generated: 2026-01-15 (Phase 0 - Current State)
## Overview
- **Total TypeScript files**: 50
- **Total JavaScript files**: 23
- **Total JSON files**: 9
- **Total Markdown files**: 41
- **Total source lines**: ~4,436 (in .ts files)
- **Max depth**: 3 levels
- **Tech stack**: TypeScript, MCP SDK (@modelcontextprotocol/sdk), Zod, Ky, Vitest
- **Package manager**: npm
## Purpose
Domain MCP Server - AI-powered domain management through Dynadot API
- Natural language domain operations for Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients
- 106 API commands covering domains, DNS, transfers, contacts, aftermarket
## Root Organization ⚠️
- **Config files in root**: 10+ (.env, .gitignore, eslint.config.js, .prettierrc.json, .npmignore, .nvmrc, etc.)
- **Root item count**: 22 visible items ⚠️ **EXCEEDS TARGET (≤15)**
- **Source directory**: `src/`
- **Build output**: `dist/`
- **Documentation**: `docs/` + 6 MD files in root (README, CHANGELOG, CONTRIBUTING, AGENTS, LICENSE, CODEBASE_MAP)
- **Examples**: `examples/`
- **Tests**: `test/`
- **Scripts**: `scripts/`
- **Logs**: `logs/`
- **Images**: `images/`
- **Hidden directories**: .claude/, .cursor/, .github/, .roo/, .rulesync/, .specify/

## Size Distribution
| Directory | Files | Est. Lines | Status |
|-----------|-------|-----------|--------|
| test/ | 2 | ~1,253 | ⚠️ Giant file |
| src/ | ~19 | ~1,687 | ✅ Good |
| scripts/ | 3 | ~1,000 | ⚠️ Large scripts |
| docs/ | ~8 | Unknown | ✅ Good |
| examples/ | Unknown | Unknown | ✅ Good |
## Hotspots (Largest Files) ⚠️
1. **test/e2e.test.ts** - 891 lines ⚠️ **CRITICAL - Needs splitting**
2. scripts/test-with-claude-code.ts - 487 lines ⚠️
3. scripts/test-all-tools.ts - 407 lines ⚠️
4. test/functional.test.ts - 362 lines ⚠️
5. src/schemas/common.ts - 217 lines ✅
6. src/client.ts - 164 lines ✅
7. src/schemas/domain-settings.ts - 145 lines ✅
## Red Flags
- [x] **Too many root configs (>10)** - Multiple config files
- [x] **Too many root items (22 vs ≤15)** - 7 items over target
- [x] **Giant test file** - e2e.test.ts at 891 lines (target: <500)
- [x] **Large script files** - 2 scripts >400 lines
- [x] **Hidden tooling sprawl** - 6 hidden directories (.claude, .cursor, .roo, .rulesync, .specify, .github)
- [ ] Deep nesting (>5 levels) - Only 3 levels ✅
- [ ] Duplicate directory names - None found ✅
## Patterns Detected
- **MCP Server pattern**: Standard @modelcontextprotocol/sdk implementation
- **Tool-based architecture**: Each feature is a separate MCP tool
- **API client pattern**: Singleton Dynadot client in client.ts
- **Modular schema approach**: Zod schemas organized by domain (12 files)
- **Comprehensive testing**: E2E and functional tests
## Strengths
✅ Clean src/ organization (schemas/, tools/, client)
✅ Modular schema structure (already refactored in past)
✅ Type-safe with Zod validation
✅ Good documentation (README, AGENTS, CONTRIBUTING)
✅ Proper build tooling (TypeScript, ESLint, Prettier, Vitest)
✅ Clear separation of concerns
## Weaknesses
⚠️ Root directory clutter (22 items vs 15 target)
⚠️ Giant test file (891 lines - should be <500)
⚠️ Large script files (need splitting)
⚠️ Multiple hidden tool directories (evaluate necessity)
## Recommendations for Phase 1
### Priority 1: Root Organization
**Status**: REQUIRED
**Issue**: 22 root items (target: ≤15)
**Actions**:
1. Consolidate config files where possible
2. Move or organize documentation files
3. Evaluate necessity of hidden tool directories
4. Consider moving logs/ and images/ to more appropriate locations
### Priority 2: Directory Consolidation
**Status**: LOW PRIORITY
**Issue**: Structure is mostly good
**Actions**:
1. Verify examples/ is needed/documented
2. Consider consolidating hidden tool directories
## Next Phase
**Run `root-organization.md` FIRST** - Root directory exceeds target by 7 items and needs cleanup before proceeding to architecture phase.
