**Current**: 2% (actual execution) - **Tests Written**: 139 tests - **Coverage Gap**: Need to import and execute test modules properly - **Action**: Fix import paths, ensure tests actually run and execute code ### Documentation Goal: Complete & Accurate - **README**: ✅ Fixed (100%) - **Quickstart**: ✅ Created (100%) - **API Docs**: ⬜ Not Started (0%) - **Examples**: ⬜ Not Started (0%) - **Video**: ⬜ Not Started (0%) ### Code Quality Goal: Production Ready - **Linter Errors**: 0 ✅ - **Type Hints**: ~50% ⚠️ - **Security Issues**: 0 (assumed) ✅ - **Performance**: Not benchmarked ⬜ ### Community Goal: Active & Growing - **GitHub Stars**: Current count unknown - **Contributors**: 1 (you) - **Issue Response Time**: N/A (no issues yet) - **Monthly Releases**: 0 (not yet published) ### Distribution Goal: Published & Accessible - **PyPI**: ⬜ Not Published - **Glama.ai**: ✅ Listed - **MCP Showcase**: ⬜ Not Featured - **Read the Docs**: ⬜ Not Setup --- ## 🚨 Critical Issues to Address ### 1. Test Coverage Reporting (HIGHEST PRIORITY) **Problem**: Tests are written but coverage shows 2% **Cause**: Import paths may not be triggering code execution **Fix**: - Verify import paths in tests - Ensure code is actually executed during tests - Add more unit tests that directly import and test modules ### 2. PyPI Publication (HIGH PRIORITY) **Problem**: Package not published, users can't install **Cause**: Haven't run publication process yet **Fix**: - Verify `pyproject.toml` metadata - Test installation locally: `pip install -e .` - Create distribution: `python -m build` - Upload to Test PyPI: `twine upload --repository testpypi dist/*` - Test installation from Test PyPI - Upload to production PyPI ### 3. Missing Examples (MEDIUM PRIORITY) **Problem**: No working examples for users **Cause**: Haven't created examples directory **Fix**: - Create `examples/` directory - Add 5-10 basic scripts - Add README in examples explaining each ### 4. No Performance Data (MEDIUM PRIORITY) **Problem**: Claims "high-performance" without proof **Cause**: No benchmarks run **Fix**: - Create `benchmarks/` directory - Add benchmark scripts for each tool category - Run benchmarks and document results - Add to README ### 5. Incomplete Type Hints (LOW PRIORITY) **Problem**: Not all functions have type hints **Cause**: Legacy code and rapid development **Fix**: - Run `mypy` to find missing hints - Add type hints incrementally - Set up `mypy` in CI/CD --- ## 💡 Key Learnings ### What Worked Well 1. **Systematic Approach**: Following the Gold Standard Plan helped organize work 2. **Test-First Mindset**: Writing comprehensive tests revealed real function signatures 3. **Documentation Fixes**: Fixing examples made the README actually useful 4. **Quick Start Guide**: 5-minute guide makes onboarding easy ### What Needs Improvement 1. **Coverage Measurement**: Need to ensure tests actually execute code 2. **Test Organization**: Some import errors suggest structure issues 3. **CI/CD**: Should be set up early to catch issues automatically 4. **Examples**: Need real-world examples sooner ### Insights 1. **MCP Tool Pattern**: Tools are registered with `@mcp.tool()` decorator, not directly importable 2. **Testing Strategy**: Need to test through tool registration, not direct imports 3. **Documentation Quality**: Examples must match actual code or users get frustrated 4. **Glama.ai Visibility**: Being listed is good, but quality matters for rankings --- ## 🎯 Next Session Goals ### Priority 1: Test Coverage (Critical) 1. **Investigate Coverage Issue**: Understand why 139 tests only show 2% coverage 2. **Fix Import Paths**: Ensure tests actually execute the code they're testing 3. **Run Coverage Report**: Generate detailed HTML coverage report 4. **Target**: Achieve 30% actual code coverage ### Priority 2: Examples & Distribution 5. **Create Examples Directory**: - `examples/01_system_info.py` - Basic system information query - `examples/02_archive_creation.py` - Create archive with exclusions - `examples/03_powershell_automation.py` - PowerShell script execution - `examples/04_service_management.py` - Windows service operations - `examples/05_event_log_query.py` - Event log querying 6. **PyPI Preparation**: - Verify `pyproject.toml` completeness - Test local installation: `pip install -e .` - Build package: `python -m build` - Upload to Test PyPI first ### Priority 3: Documentation 7. **API Documentation**: Generate from docstrings 8. **Update Glama.ai**: Add new features and MCPB support 9. **Create CHANGELOG.md**: Document version history --- ## 📊 Weekly Progress Tracker ### Week 0 (September 30 - October 6 - Foundation) ✅ COMPLETE - [x] Documentation fixes (README, QUICKSTART) - [x] Gold Standard Plan created - [x] 139 tests written (Archive: 26, PowerShell: 26, Others: 87) - [x] MCPB migration initiated - [ ] PyPI publication preparation (deferred) - [ ] Examples directory creation (deferred) ### Week 1 (October 1-8 - MCPB Migration) ✅ COMPLETE - [x] **MCPB migration completed** (major achievement!) - [x] CI/CD pipeline configured (GitHub Actions) - [x] Build automation (PowerShell scripts) - [x] 16 test files enhanced - [x] Documentation overhaul (README, status report) - [x] Repository health: 9.0/10 - [ ] PyPI published (still pending) - [ ] 5+ working examples (deferred) **Status**: Exceeded expectations with MCPB migration and infrastructure improvements ### Week 2 (October 9-15 - Target: Coverage & PyPI) - [ ] Fix test coverage measurement (from 2% to 30%+) - [ ] PyPI published and installable - [ ] Create examples directory with 5+ scripts - [ ] Complete API documentation - [ ] Performance benchmarks documented - [ ] Community guidelines in place ### Week 3 (October 16-22 - Target: 60-90% Coverage) - [ ] 60-90% test coverage achieved - [ ] Security audit completed - [ ] Video tutorial published - [ ] Update Glama.ai listing with new features ### Week 4 (October 23-29 - Gold Standard) - [ ] 90%+ test coverage maintained - [ ] 100% documentation complete - [ ] Active community setup (GitHub Discussions) - [ ] Featured on MCP showcase - [ ] v0.2.0 release (MCPB milestone) --- ## 🎉 Wins to Celebrate ### Original Wins (September 30, 2025) 1. ✅ **139 Tests Created!** (from 16) - 869% increase!
