### 💎 Core Value Propositions
#### 🤖 **Smart Constraints, AI Code Quality Leap**
**AI-generated code without MCP:**
```typescript
// User prompt: Create user registration interface
// AI-generated code (doesn't follow project standards)
app.post('/register', (req, res) => {
const { name, email } = req.body; // Missing password field validation
// Direct return of user info, doesn't follow project response format
res.json({
success: true,
user: { name, email }
});
});
```
**AI-generated code with MCP:**
```typescript
// User prompt: .use interface create user registration interface
// AI automatically follows OpenAPI spec to generate code
app.post('/api/v1/users/register', async (req, res) => {
const { name, email, password } = req.body; // Complete field validation
// Follows project standard response format
res.status(201).json({
code: 0,
message: "Registration successful",
data: {
userId: newUser.id,
email: newUser.email,
token: generateJWT(newUser.id),
expiresIn: 3600
}
});
});
```
#### 🔍 **Real-time Validation, Early Problem Detection**
- **Development-time Validation**: Real-time checks during code writing

#### 📋 **Unified Standards, Consistent AI-generated Code Style**
**Code generated by different AI tools without MCP:**
```typescript
// Claude-generated user interface
interface User {
user_id: string; // Snake case naming
userName: string; // Camel case naming
created_at: Date; // Snake case naming
}
// Cursor-generated user interface
interface UserInfo { // Different interface name
userId: string; // Camel case naming
user_name: string; // Snake case naming
createTime: Date; // Camel case naming
}
```
**Code generated by all AI tools with MCP:**
```typescript
// All AI tools follow project OpenAPI spec
interface User {
userId: string; // Unified camel case naming
userName: string; // Unified camel case naming
email: string; // Required fields not missed
createdAt: Date; // Unified camel case naming
updatedAt: Date; // Complete audit fields
}

## 🧠 Smart Constraint Mode
### 🎯 Core Feature: `.use interface` Command
The `.use interface` command is the core feature of MCP Interface Validator, enabling AI tools to automatically follow your project's interface specifications.
#### 🔄 System Processing Flow
1. **Command Recognition**: System detects `.use interface` prefix
2. **Spec Loading**: Automatically loads project OpenAPI specifications
3. **Constraint Generation**: Generates precise constraint conditions based on specs
4. **Prompt Enhancement**: Injects constraints into AI prompts
5. **Code Generation**: AI generates code following specifications
6. **Real-time Validation**: Validates generated code in real-time
#### 📝 Basic Usage Examples
```bash
# Basic interface development
.use interface create user login API
# Complex business scenarios
.use interface develop e-commerce product search API with filtering and pagination
# Microservice architecture
.use interface implement order service status update interface
# Database operations
.use interface create user CRUD operations with validation
```
#### 🌟 Constraint Effect Examples
**Without Smart Constraints:**
```typescript
// AI might generate inconsistent code
interface LoginRequest {
username: string; // Inconsistent naming
pwd: string; // Abbreviated field name
}
app.post('/login', (req, res) => {
// Missing validation, inconsistent response format
res.json({ success: true, token: "..." });
});
```
**With Smart Constraints:**
```typescript
// AI generates code following OpenAPI spec
interface LoginRequest {
email: string; // Follows spec naming
password: string; // Complete field name
}
app.post('/api/v1/auth/login', async (req, res) => {
// Complete validation, standard response format
res.status(200).json({
code: 0,
message: "Login successful",
data: {
token: generateJWT(user.id),
expiresIn: 3600,
refreshToken: generateRefreshToken(user.id)
}
});
});
```
## 🔍 Interface Validation Commands

## 🔍 Complete Troubleshooting Guide
### Common Issues and Solutions
#### 1. MCP Server Connection Issues 🔌
**Symptoms:**
- AI tools cannot recognize MCP commands
- "MCP server connection failed" error
- No interface validation related commands in tool list
**Diagnostic Steps:**
```bash
# Check server status
mcp-interface-validator --status
# Check port usage
netstat -an | grep 3000
# View detailed logs
mcp-interface-validator --debug --log-level verbose
```
**Solutions:**
```bash
# Solution 1: Restart server
mcp-interface-validator --restart
# Solution 2: Clear cache and restart
mcp-interface-validator --restart --clear-cache
# Solution 3: Use different port
mcp-interface-validator --port 3001
# Solution 4: Validate configuration
mcp-interface-validator --validate-config
```
#### 2. OpenAPI Specification Loading Issues 📋
**Symptoms:**
- Specification file loading failed
- "Invalid OpenAPI specification" error
- Constraints cannot be applied correctly
**Diagnostic Steps:**
```bash
# Validate specification file syntax
validate-openapi-spec --file "./api.yaml" --strict
# Check file path and permissions
ls -la ./api.yaml
# Use verbose mode to see errors
load-openapi-spec --file "./api.yaml" --verbose --debug
```
**Solutions:**
```bash
# Solution 1: Auto-fix specification file
validate-openapi-spec --file "./api.yaml" --fix-errors --backup
# Solution 2: Use online validator
curl -X POST "https://validator.swagger.io/validator/debug" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d @./api.yaml
# Solution 3: Convert format
# YAML to JSON
yq eval -o=json ./api.yaml > ./api.json
load-openapi-spec --file "./api.json"
# Solution 4: Use fallback path
load-openapi-spec --file "./docs/swagger.yaml" --fallback
```
#### 3. Constraints Not Working Issues ⚙️
**Symptoms:**
- `.use interface` command doesn't apply constraints
- Generated code doesn't follow specifications
- Constraint status shows inactive
**Diagnostic Steps:**
```bash
# Check constraint status
get-constraint-status --verbose
# View constraint configuration
get-project-config --project-path "." --format "json"
# Check session status
get-constraint-status --include-session-info
```
**Solutions:**
```bash
# Solution 1: Reactivate constraints
deactivate-interface-constraints
activate-interface-constraints --project-path "." --force
# Solution 2: Clean and reconfigure
deactivate-interface-constraints --cleanup
load-openapi-spec --file "./api.yaml" --validate
activate-interface-constraints --project-path "." --template "strict"
# Solution 3: Check template configuration
update-constraint-config --template "standard" --validate
# Solution 4: Manually apply constraints
apply-interface-constraints --directory "./src" --dry-run --verbose
```
#### 4. Performance Issues 🚀
**Symptoms:**
- Very slow validation
- High memory usage
- Response timeout
**Diagnostic Steps:**
```bash
# Check system resources
mcp-interface-validator --system-info
# Analyze performance bottlenecks
mcp-interface-validator --profile --duration 60
# View cache status
mcp-interface-validator --cache-stats
```
**Solutions:**
```bash
# Solution 1: Enable caching
update-constraint-config --config '{
"cache": {
"enabled": true,
"ttl": 3600,
"maxSize": "100MB"
}
}' --merge
# Solution 2: Parallel processing
validate-interface --parallel --max-workers 4
# Solution 3: Incremental validation
validate-interface --incremental --since "HEAD~1"
# Solution 4: Clean historical data
cleanup-validation-history --days 7 --keep-errors
```
#### 5. Permission Issues 🔐
**Symptoms:**
- Cannot write report files
- Configuration file cannot be saved
- Cache directory creation failed
**Solutions:**
```bash
# Check file permissions
ls -la .mcp-validator.json
ls -la ./reports/
# Fix permissions
chmod 755 ./reports/
chmod 644 .mcp-validator.json
# Use user directory
mcp-interface-validator --config-dir "~/.mcp-validator"
```
### Advanced Debugging Techniques
#### Enable Verbose Logging
```bash
# Set environment variables
export MCP_LOG_LEVEL=debug
export MCP_LOG_FILE=./debug.log
# Start debug mode
mcp-interface-validator --debug --trace --log-file ./debug.log
```
#### Network Issue Diagnosis
```bash
# Check network connection
curl -I http://localhost:3000/health
# Test WebSocket connection
wscat -c ws://localhost:3000/ws
# Check firewall settings
sudo ufw status
```
#### Configuration File Validation
```bash
# Validate JSON configuration
cat .mcp-validator.json | jq .
# Validate YAML configuration
yq eval . .mcp-validator.yaml
# Generate default configuration
mcp-interface-validator --generate-config --output .mcp-validator.json
```
