# ERPNext MCP Server Improvement Documentation This directory contains comprehensive documentation for improving the ERPNext MCP server implementation. These documents analyze the current state of the server and provide detailed recommendations for enhancing its maintainability, reliability, security, and functionality. ## Document Overview ### [Analysis](./analysis.md) A comprehensive analysis of the current ERPNext MCP server implementation, identifying key areas for improvement including code organization, error handling, authentication, caching, testing, logging, documentation, configuration, rate limiting, tool implementation, security, resource management, and dependency management. ### [Code Restructuring](./code-restructuring.md) Detailed plan for restructuring the codebase to improve maintainability and testability, including a proposed directory structure, key component implementation examples, and step-by-step implementation plan. ### [Testing Strategy](./testing-strategy.md) Comprehensive testing approach covering unit tests, integration tests, and end-to-end tests, with code examples, mock implementations, and configuration details for setting up a robust testing framework. ### [Error Handling and Logging](./error-handling-and-logging.md) Strategy for implementing structured error handling and logging, including error categorization, correlation IDs, contextual logging, and integration with the MCP server. ### [Security and Authentication](./security-and-authentication.md) Detailed recommendations for enhancing security and authentication, covering input validation, secure configuration management, rate limiting, security middleware, and best practices for credential handling. ### [Implementation Roadmap](./implementation-roadmap.md) Phased approach for implementing all recommended improvements, with timeline estimates, dependencies, task prioritization, and risk management considerations. ### [Feature Improvements](./feature-improvements.md) Detailed recommendations for enhancing the server's functionality with new features like advanced querying, bulk operations, webhooks, document workflows, file operations, and more. ## Getting Started If you're new to this documentation, we recommend starting with the [Analysis](./analysis.md) document to understand the current state and identified areas for improvement. Then, review the [Implementation Roadmap](./implementation-roadmap.md) for a structured approach to implementing the recommended changes. ## Key Improvement Areas 1. **Code Organization**: Transition from a monolithic design to a modular architecture 2. **Error Handling**: Implement structured error handling with proper categorization 3. **Testing**: Add comprehensive test coverage with unit, integration, and E2E tests 4. **Logging**: Enhance logging with structured formats and contextual information 5. **Security**: Improve authentication, add input validation, and implement rate limiting 6. **Performance**: Add caching and optimize API interactions 7. **Maintainability**: Improve documentation and implement best practices ## Implementation Guide For implementing these improvements, follow the phases outlined in the [Implementation Roadmap](./implementation-roadmap.md). This allows for incremental enhancement while maintaining a functioning system throughout the process. ## Additional Resources - [Model Context Protocol Documentation](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/mcp) - [ERPNext API Reference](https://frappeframework.com/docs/user/en/api) - [Frappe Framework Documentation](https://frappeframework.com/docs)
