DDQ — Domain-Driven QA

An MCP server that turns real bug reports and QA experience into a searchable knowledge base, so your AI coding agent can plan QA the way an experienced QA engineer would — grounded in what actually breaks, not made-up checklists.

DDQ ships a curated QA knowledge base (real, bug-derived checkpoints tagged by domain / feature / failure type) and exposes it over the Model Context Protocol. Your agent (Claude Code, Cursor, …) calls DDQ's tools to retrieve the right QA cases, then does the reasoning — planning tests, writing scenarios, summarizing results — itself.

Why DDQ

• Grounded, not hallucinated. Cases come from real bugs and QA experience, rewritten as reusable checkpoints (reproduction, expected result, how to verify).

• Two retrieval modes, because "QA this login screen" and "the button is broken on mobile" are different requests (see Tools).

• Cost-zero by design. Embeddings run on a local, quantized multilingual model — no embedding API bill. The expensive LLM reasoning stays in your agent, which you already pay for. The DDQ server only does retrieval.

• No auth. The knowledge base is public shared knowledge, so there's no OAuth or token to manage — just a URL.

How it works

QA case Markdown (cases/*.md)
      → local embedding (multilingual, q8) → in-memory vector index
Your agent asks "QA this login flow"
      → DDQ returns the relevant cases (similar search OR feature coverage)
      → your agent writes the test plan / scenarios from that grounding

Installation

Remote (hosted) — nothing to download

DDQ runs at https://mcp.nogglee.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP). Add it to your agent and you're done — the knowledge base lives on the server and is always up to date.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http --scope user ddq https://mcp.nogglee.com/mcp

Cursor / generic MCP config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ddq": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.nogglee.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Local (stdio) — run it yourself

Fully offline, zero cost, private. Requires Node.js ≥ 20 and pnpm.

git clone https://github.com/nogglee-crew/domain-driven-qa.git
cd domain-driven-qa
pnpm install
pnpm build
claude mcp add ddq -- node "$(pwd)/dist/mcp/stdio.js"

The local server indexes cases/ on startup (downloads the embedding model once).

Tools

DDQ splits QA requests into two modes, plus a lookup:

search_qa_cases — symptom / similar search

For bug-shaped requests. Returns the top-k QA cases most similar to a natural language query (Korean and English both work).

{
  "query": "the login button doesn't respond on mobile",
  "topK": 5,
  // optional tag filters:
  "domain": "auth", "feature": "login",
  "environment": ["mobile", "safari"], "severity": "high"
}

get_coverage_context — feature-wide QA coverage

For "QA this whole feature" requests (e.g. "QA the login flow"). Instead of a few similar hits, it returns all cases for a domain/feature, grouped by risk area (failure_type), and lists which risk areas have no cases yet so your agent can fill the gaps from its own knowledge.

{ "domain": "auth", "feature": "login" }  // feature optional → whole domain

Returns a coverage map (risk areas → cases), the KB gaps, and each case's full checkpoints — enough to write a complete test plan in one call.

get_qa_case — fetch one case

{ "id": "auth-login-rate-limit-002" }

QA case format

Each case is a Markdown file with YAML frontmatter (multi-axis tags) and a body of checkpoints / reproduction / expected result / how-to-verify:

---
id: auth-login-rate-limit-002
title: Login allows unlimited password attempts (no rate limiting)
domain: auth            # auth | ecommerce | booking | payment | admin | content
feature: login
action: submit
environment: [desktop, chrome]
failure_type: [permission, network]   # validation | race_condition | timezone
                                       # | cache | permission | layout | input | network
severity: high          # low | medium | high | critical
source: github_issue    # github_issue | postmortem | manual_checklist | user_report
test_type: [e2e, regression]
---

The current knowledge base covers the auth domain (login / signup / logout / password reset).

Contributing

Add a cases/<id>.md file and open a PR — see CONTRIBUTING.md for the full guide. In short:

• Rewrite raw bug reports as reusable QA checkpoints, not copies of the issue.

• Always include reproduction conditions, expected result, and how to verify.

• Never include sensitive/customer data. Anonymize and generalize.

• Cases can also be QA methodologies (testing_principle) or test-generation rules (scenario_rule) — the agent reads these and applies them when planning.

Roadmap

• risk_area as a first-class axis (e.g. security, session) above failure_type.

• More domains (payment, booking) and deeper auth coverage.

• Local-mode execution tools — run_tests / save_report via Playwright. These belong to the local (stdio) server, since a remote server cannot reach your localhost app under test.
