dt_mcp Server (Decision Tree & Task Management MCP Server)

This project implements a Node.js-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to manage and interact with decision trees defined in .rtdq files and handle a basic to-do list. It uses Redis as a backend for storing parsed .rtdq data and the to-do list.

Features

• RTDQ Handling:

  • Loads .rtdq files (v2.1 format) from a specified directory.

  • Parses .rtdq files asynchronously.

  • Stores parsed decision tree data in Redis.

  • Provides an MCP tool (get_dt_node_from_redis) to retrieve specific nodes from a loaded tree.

• To-Do Management:

  • Provides MCP tools (add_todo, list_todos, mark_todo_done) to manage a simple to-do list.

  • Stores to-do items in Redis.

• MCP Integration:

  • Acts as a standard MCP server.

  • Communicates via HTTP Server-Sent Events (SSE) on the /mcp endpoint.

  • Exposes capabilities via standard MCP tools/list and tools/call methods.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v16+ recommended for ES Modules and top-level await)

• npm (or yarn)

• Redis server running and accessible

Setup

1. Clone Repository:

   git clone <your-repo-url>
   cd dt-mcp-server

2. Install Dependencies:

   npm install

3. Configure Environment: Create a .env file in the project root (and add it to .gitignore) or set environment variables:

   • REDIS_URL: The connection URL for your Redis server (e.g., redis://localhost:6379). Defaults to redis://localhost:6379.

   • RTDQ_DIR: (Optional) Absolute path to the directory containing your .rtdq files. Defaults to a subdirectory named rtdq_files within the project.

   • PORT: (Optional) Port for the server to listen on. Defaults to 3000.

4. Create RTDQ Directory: Ensure the directory specified by RTDQ_DIR (or the default rtdq_files subdirectory) exists. Place your .rtdq files inside it.

Running the Server

npm start
