- `list-opportunities`: List opportunities with filtering (by company)
### 6. Server Updates (`src/server.ts`)

- Registered 11 new MCP tools (5 Person, 3 Company, 3 Opportunity)
- Updated initialization logging
### 7. Configuration Files
#### Environment Variables (.env.example)
```bash
TWENTY_API_URL=https://api.twenty.com
TWENTY_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
PORT=5008
HOST=0.0.0.0
NODE_ENV=development
```
#### Kubernetes Deployment
- Changed deployment name to `twenty-crm-mcp-server`
- Removed EY-specific namespace
- Added Twenty API configuration via secrets
- Updated service names
## Files Removed (Old Census Implementation)
The following old census files still exist but are no longer used:
- `src/domain/census-service.ts`
- `src/application/tools/population-tool.ts`
- `src/infrastructure/clients/census-api-client.ts`
These can be safely deleted if not needed for reference.

## API Support
### GraphQL API
- Full support for complex queries
- Batch operations
- Relationship traversal
- Endpoint: `https://api.twenty.com/graphql`
### REST API
- CRUD operations
- Simple request/response
- Query parameters for filtering
- Endpoint: `https://api.twenty.com/rest`
## Next Steps
1. **Set up environment variables**:
```bash
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your Twenty CRM API key
```
2. **Test locally**:
```bash
npm install
npm run build
npm start
# Visit http://localhost:5008
```
3. **Deploy to Kubernetes**:
```bash
# Create secret with your API key
kubectl create secret generic twenty-crm-secrets \
--from-literal=api-key=YOUR_API_KEY
# Deploy
npm run docker-build
npm run deploy
```
4. **Optional cleanup**:
```bash
# Remove old census files if not needed
rm src/domain/census-service.ts
rm src/application/tools/population-tool.ts
rm src/infrastructure/clients/census-api-client.ts
rm census-context.yaml
```
## Testing
The server includes:
- Interactive web interface at `http://localhost:5008`
- MCP Inspector support
- Health check endpoint at `/health`
- Full MCP protocol compliance
## Security Notes
- API keys stored in environment variables
- Kubernetes deployment uses secrets
- Never commit `.env` files
- Rotate API keys regularly
- Use appropriate RBAC in Twenty CRM
