## Architecture

The server implements the Model Context Protocol and provides:

1. **Resources**: Documentation files accessible via MCP resource URIs
2. **Tools**: Four main tools for retrieving guidelines:
   - `get_coding_rules`: Professional coding standards
   - `get_development_skills`: Development best practices
   - `get_steering_instructions`: AI agent guidance
   - `get_custom_guidance`: AI-curated context-specific advice

## Installation

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.11+
- Anthropic API key (optional, but required for `get_custom_guidance` tool)

### Setup

1. Clone this repository
2. Install dependencies:
   ```bash
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```
   or with uv:
   ```bash
   uv sync
   ```

3. **(Optional)** Set your Anthropic API key for AI-powered custom guidance:
   ```bash
   export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
   ```
   
   **Note**: The server works without an API key, but the `get_custom_guidance` tool will return a graceful error message directing users to the other three tools. The static documentation tools (`get_coding_rules`, `get_development_skills`, `get_steering_instructions`) work fully without any API key.

## Usage

### Running the MCP Server

```bash
python main.py
```

The server runs as an MCP stdio server, communicating over standard input/output.

### MCP Client Configuration

To use this server with an MCP client (like Claude Desktop), add it to your MCP configuration:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-dev-guidelines": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/path/to/this/repo/main.py"],
      "env": {
        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Available Tools

#### 1. get_coding_rules
Get professional coding rules and standards for writing production-quality code.

```python
# No parameters required
result = await session.call_tool("get_coding_rules", {})
```

#### 2. get_development_skills
Get development skills, best practices, and professional techniques.

```python
# No parameters required
result = await session.call_tool("get_development_skills", {})
```

#### 3. get_steering_instructions
Get AI agent steering instructions for context-aware development.

```python
# No parameters required
result = await session.call_tool("get_steering_instructions", {})
```

#### 4. get_custom_guidance
Get AI-curated guidance tailored to your specific development context.

```python
# Requires query parameter
result = await session.call_tool("get_custom_guidance", {
    "query": "How do I implement secure authentication in a Python web app?",
    "context": "Building a Flask application with user login"  # optional
})
```

### Available Resources

The server exposes three documentation resources:

- `guidelines://rules` - Professional Coding Rules
- `guidelines://skills` - Development Skills & Practices  
- `guidelines://steering` - AI Steering Instructions

## Configuration

Edit `config.yaml` to customize:

- Server name and version
- Documentation file paths
- AI model settings (model, max_tokens, temperature)
- Tool descriptions

## Documentation

### **Core Documentation**

The server includes three main documentation files in the `docs/` directory:

- **rules.md**: Professional coding standards, security practices, testing requirements
- **skills.md**: Development skills from debugging to API design
- **steering.md**: AI agent guidance for effective code generation

### **Deployment & Operations**

Complete guides in the `Documentation/` directory:

- **[PRODUCTION_DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md](Documentation/PRODUCTION_DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md)**: Complete production deployment guide
- **[PRE_LAUNCH_CHECKLIST.md](Documentation/PRE_LAUNCH_CHECKLIST.md)**: Step-by-step checklist for beta launch
- **[SENTRY_SETUP_GUIDE.md](Documentation/SENTRY_SETUP_GUIDE.md)**: Error tracking and monitoring setup
- **[BETA_DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md](Documentation/BETA_DEPLOYMENT_GUIDE.md)**: Platform-specific deployment instructions
- **[QUICKSTART.md](Documentation/QUICKSTART.md)**: Quick start guide
- **[SECURITY_IMPLEMENTATION.md](Documentation/SECURITY_IMPLEMENTATION.md)**: Security features and best practices

You can customize these documents to match your organization's standards.

```

## How It Works

1. **Agent Request**: An AI agent calls one of the MCP tools
2. **Document Loading**: The server loads relevant documentation from markdown files
3. **AI Orchestration** (for custom guidance): Claude analyzes the query and selects relevant content
4. **Response**: The server returns targeted, actionable guidance

## Development

### Running Tests

```bash
pytest
```

### Adding New Documentation

1. Create or edit markdown files in `docs/`
2. Update `config.yaml` to reference new files
3. Restart the server

### Customizing AI Behavior

Edit the system prompts in `src/ai_orchestrator.py` to change how the AI selects and presents documentation.

## Environment Variables

- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`: Required for AI orchestration features
