# Bash MCP Project Status
## Current Status: Completed Implementation
The TypeScript Bash MCP (Master Control Program) project has been fully implemented and tested. This document outlines what has been completed and potential future enhancements.
## Completed
### Project Setup
- ✅ Project directory structure
- ✅ TypeScript configuration (tsconfig.json)
- ✅ ESLint and Prettier setup
- ✅ Package.json with dependencies
- ✅ Documentation (README.md, MASTERPLAN.md, STATUS.md)
- ✅ Git repository initialization
### Core Functionality
- ✅ Configuration loading and validation
- ✅ Logging infrastructure
- ✅ Command execution (non-interactive)
- ✅ Command validation against whitelist
- ✅ Directory validation against whitelist
- ✅ Output sanitization
- ✅ Timeout mechanism for commands
### Session Management
- ✅ Session creation and tracking
- ✅ Interactive sessions using node-pty
- ✅ Session timeout and cleanup
- ✅ Input handling for interactive sessions
### Testing
- ✅ Unit tests for utilities (config, validator, logger)
- ✅ Unit tests for core components (BashMCP, CommandExecutor, SessionManager)
- ✅ Integration tests for basic functionality
- ✅ Test coverage (>85% statement coverage)
## Code Quality
- ✅ Linting configuration
- ✅ Formatting tools
- ✅ Error handling
- ✅ Comprehensive logging
- ✅ Type safety with TypeScript
## Testing Results
The test suite provides excellent coverage:
- Overall statement coverage: 86.64%
- Branch coverage: 67.64%
- Function coverage: 89.13%
- Line coverage: 86.53%
## Potential Future Enhancements
1. **More Sophisticated Input Detection**
- Enhance the mechanism for detecting when an interactive process is waiting for input
- Add pattern matching for different types of prompts
2. **Environment Variable Handling**
- Add support for configuring environment variables per session
- Allow passing environment variables through the configuration
3. **Command History**
- Add command history tracking for sessions
- Support for retrieving command history
4. **Advanced Security Features**
- Add resource limitation (CPU, memory)
- More sophisticated command parsing and validation
- Sandboxing support
5. **User Interface**
- Command-line interface for manual interaction
- Web-based interface for monitoring and managing sessions
## Next Steps
1. Performance testing with large volumes of commands
2. Security review and hardening
3. Documentation for API users
4. Consider containerization for deployment
