CI Python Evidence License MCP Neo4j

Graph-grounded MCP server that converts natural-language requests into validated, compilable Java test methods — no hallucinated imports, no ungrounded symbols, no silent failures.

A natural-language or structured request enters an official Model Context Protocol (MCP) stdio server. A versioned graph catalog (Neo4j or JSON fixture) supplies the only symbols the generator may cite. A multi-layer validator checks syntax, framework contract, grounding, and forbidden-API rules before any source is returned. Two optional LLM agents — an intent normaliser and a post-generation reviewer — extend the pipeline to free-form input without compromising the deterministic safety envelope.

Policy Selection

Four generation policies were evaluated. The selection objective was declared before opening the confirmation split: maximise validation task success among candidates passing all safety gates. Confirmation was opened exactly once for the selected candidate.

Behaviour

get_fixture_metadata

Read

Returns fixture identity, provenance, license, backend, symbol count

search_graph

Read

Parameterised name/method search; max 20 results

generate_java_test

Generate

Typed fields → graph lookup → Java → all validation gates

generate_java_test_from_intent

Generate

Bounded 3-form grammar → same strict policy

validate_java_source

Validate

Checks up to 20 000 chars; never writes or executes source

generate_java_test_nlp

Multi-agent

LLM intent parser → generator → LLM reviewer; requires OPENAI_API_KEY

The Neo4j adapter uses fixed parameterised Cypher, rejects credentials in URIs, and refuses fixture identity collisions.

Security Design

  • No raw Cypher on the MCP surface — all graph queries are parameterised.

  • Strict field allowlists — class names, package names, module names, versions, and config paths are checked against compiled regex patterns before any graph lookup.

  • Source safety scanner — generated Java is rejected if it references Runtime.getRuntime, ProcessBuilder, System.exit, java.io, java.nio.file, or java.net.

  • Path traversal prevention — absolute paths and .. segments are rejected in config path fields.

  • Grounding enforcement — every import in generated source must correspond to a symbol retrieved from the graph for that exact version.

  • LLM output re-validated — fields extracted by the LLM intent parser pass through the same GenerationIntent.from_mapping() validation as direct API calls.

  • Neo4j credentials — loaded only from environment variables; never logged or returned in evidence artifacts.

  • XML preflightdefusedxml prevents entity-expansion attacks in project-structure scanning.

  • Container — pinned Chainguard Linux image, non-root UID/GID 65532; CI performs an MCP-over-container stdio smoke test.

See SECURITY.md for the full threat boundary.

Boundaries

The following are not claimed by this repository:

  • Free-form intent parsing quality independent of model version — the LLM pipeline is opt-in and its results are not captured in the frozen evaluation artifacts.

  • Compatibility with any proprietary or confidential Java test framework.

  • Production latency SLO — all measurements are single-process local sequential benchmarks.

  • Concurrent, distributed, or high-availability operation.

  • Automatic execution of generated Java against hardware or a test instrument.

  • Any productivity, cost, yield, or test-time saving — this repository contains only generation and validation evidence.

The full machine-readable boundary is in evidence/claims.json.
