# MCP Codebase Insight Workflows ## Overview This document details the various workflows supported by MCP Codebase Insight, including both user-facing and system-level processes. These workflows are designed to help developers effectively use and interact with the system's features. ## Quick Navigation - [User Workflows](#user-workflows) - [Code Analysis](#1-code-analysis-workflow) - [Documentation Management](#2-documentation-management-workflow) - [Testing](#3-testing-workflow) - [System Workflows](#system-workflows) - [Vector Store Operations](#1-vector-store-operations) - [Health Monitoring](#2-health-monitoring) - [Integration Points](#integration-points) - [Best Practices](#best-practices) - [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) - [Next Steps](#next-steps) ## User Workflows ### 1. Code Analysis Workflow #### Process Flow ```mermaid graph TD A[Developer] -->|Submit Code| B[Analysis Request] B --> C{Analysis Type} C -->|Pattern Detection| D[Pattern Analysis] C -->|Semantic Search| E[Vector Search] C -->|Documentation| F[Doc Analysis] D --> G[Results] E --> G F --> G G -->|Display| A ``` #### Steps 1. **Submit Code** - Upload code files or provide repository URL - Specify analysis parameters - Set analysis scope 2. **Analysis Processing** - Pattern detection runs against known patterns - Semantic search finds similar code - Documentation analysis checks coverage 3. **Results Review** - View detected patterns - Review suggestions - Access related documentation ### 2. Documentation Management Workflow #### Process Flow ```mermaid graph TD A[Developer] -->|Create/Update| B[Documentation] B --> C{Doc Type} C -->|ADR| D[ADR Processing] C -->|API| E[API Docs] C -->|Guide| F[User Guide] D --> G[Link Analysis] E --> G F --> G G -->|Update| H[Doc Map] H -->|Validate| A ``` #### Steps 1. **Create/Update Documentation** - Choose document type - Write content - Add metadata 2. **Processing** - Analyze document relationships - Update documentation map - Validate links 3. **Validation** - Check for broken links - Verify consistency - Update references ### 3. Testing Workflow #### Process Flow ```mermaid graph TD A[Developer] -->|Run Tests| B[Test Suite] B --> C{Test Type} C -->|Unit| D[Unit Tests] C -->|Integration| E[Integration Tests] C -->|SSE| F[SSE Tests] D --> G[Results] E --> G F --> G G -->|Report| A ``` #### Steps 1. **Test Initialization** - Set up test environment - Configure test parameters - Prepare test data 2. **Test Execution** - Run selected test types - Monitor progress - Collect results 3. **Results Analysis** - Review test reports - Analyze failures - Generate coverage reports ## System Workflows ### 1. Vector Store Operations #### Process Flow ```mermaid sequenceDiagram participant User participant Server participant Cache participant VectorStore participant Knowledge User->>Server: Request Analysis Server->>Cache: Check Cache Cache-->>Server: Cache Hit/Miss alt Cache Miss Server->>VectorStore: Generate Embeddings VectorStore->>Knowledge: Get Patterns Knowledge-->>VectorStore: Return Patterns VectorStore-->>Server: Return Results Server->>Cache: Update Cache end Server-->>User: Return Analysis ``` #### Components 1. **Cache Layer** - In-memory cache for frequent requests - Disk cache for larger datasets - Cache invalidation strategy 2. **Vector Store** - Embedding generation - Vector search - Pattern matching 3. **Knowledge Base** - Pattern storage - Relationship tracking - Context management ### 2. Health Monitoring #### Process Flow ```mermaid sequenceDiagram participant Monitor participant Components participant Tasks participant Alerts loop Every 30s Monitor->>Components: Check Status Components->>Tasks: Verify Tasks Tasks-->>Components: Task Status alt Issues Detected Components->>Alerts: Raise Alert Alerts->>Monitor: Alert Status end Components-->>Monitor: System Status end ``` #### Components 1. **Monitor** - Regular health checks - Performance monitoring - Resource tracking 2. **Components** - Service status - Resource usage - Error rates 3. **Tasks** - Task queue status - Processing rates - Error handling 4. **Alerts** - Alert generation - Notification routing - Alert history ## Integration Points ### 1. External Systems - Version Control Systems - CI/CD Pipelines - Issue Tracking Systems - Documentation Platforms ### 2. APIs - REST API for main operations - SSE for real-time updates - WebSocket for bi-directional communication ### 3. Storage - Vector Database (Qdrant) - Cache Storage - Document Storage ## Best Practices ### 1. Code Analysis - Regular analysis scheduling - Incremental analysis for large codebases - Pattern customization ### 2. Documentation - Consistent formatting - Regular updates - Link validation ### 3. Testing - Comprehensive test coverage - Regular test runs - Performance benchmarking ## Troubleshooting ### Common Issues 1. **Analysis Failures** - Check input validation - Verify system resources - Review error logs 2. **Performance Issues** - Monitor cache hit rates - Check vector store performance - Review resource usage 3. **Integration Issues** - Verify API endpoints - Check authentication - Review connection settings ## Next Steps 1. **Workflow Optimization** - Performance improvements - Enhanced error handling - Better user feedback 2. **New Features** - Custom workflow creation - Advanced analysis options - Extended integration options 3. **Documentation** - Workflow examples - Integration guides - Troubleshooting guides
