# pilates_mcp

`pilates_mcp` is a local-first MCP server for Pilates center promotional posters. It creates editable HTML/CSS poster sources, stores them in a local archive, searches and reuses past posters, records design feedback, and can render PNG/PDF artifacts with headless Chromium.

Phase 1 deliberately does not store member names, phone numbers, schedules, health data, payment data, or other member personal information.

## Project Structure

This repository was empty at implementation time, so the server is implemented as a TypeScript + Node.js MCP server.

## Install

```bash
npm install
npx playwright install chromium
```

## Development

```bash
npm run build
npm test
npm run dev
```

`PILATES_MCP_DATA_DIR` can point the archive to another local data directory. If unset, the server uses `./data`.

## Railway Deployment

Railway deployment is configured with `railway.json` and `Dockerfile`.

The production container uses the official Playwright image so Chromium runtime dependencies are available for PNG/PDF rendering. Railway starts `npm run start:railway`, which exposes:

- `GET /health`: deployment healthcheck
- `GET /tools`: MCP tool summary for deployment inspection
- `GET /schedule`: lightweight Excel-style Schedule Workspace
- `GET /mcp`: MCP HTTP endpoint info
- `POST /mcp`: JSON-RPC MCP endpoint for `initialize`, `tools/list`, and `tools/call`

The stdio MCP server remains available through `npm run start:stdio` for MCP clients that connect by command. Railway uses `npm start` and `POST /mcp` for HTTP JSON-RPC MCP calls.

For persistent local-first archive storage on Railway, mount a Railway volume at `/data` or set `PILATES_MCP_DATA_DIR` to another persistent path.

Set these Railway variables for ChatGPT remote MCP OAuth:

- `PILATES_MCP_OAUTH_PASSWORD`: owner password shown during `/authorize` approval
- `PILATES_MCP_PUBLIC_URL`: canonical public origin, for example `https://your-service.up.railway.app`
- `PILATES_MCP_AUTH_DISABLED`: optional local-only escape hatch; set to `true` only for local development

`PILATES_MCP_PUBLIC_URL` must use the same origin as the MCP URL configured in ChatGPT. For example, if ChatGPT uses `https://pilates-mcp.com/mcp`, set `PILATES_MCP_PUBLIC_URL=https://pilates-mcp.com`. Do not mix it with `https://mcp.pilates-mcp.com` unless that subdomain is the actual MCP URL and all well-known OAuth endpoints are served from that same subdomain.

OAuth endpoints:

- `/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource`
- `/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp`
- `/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`
- `/.well-known/openid-configuration`
- `/register`
- `/authorize`
- `/token`

If authorization finishes and the browser shows a `502` for a URL like `http://127.0.0.1:<port>`, that URL is the MCP client's local OAuth callback, not the Railway service. Check that the ChatGPT/Codex client connection flow is still active and that local callback URLs are not blocked by browser, firewall, proxy, or VPN settings.

## MCP Client Connection

Use the built server as a stdio MCP command:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pilates_mcp": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["G:/pilates_mcp/dist/src/server.js"],
      "env": {
        "PILATES_MCP_DATA_DIR": "G:/pilates_mcp/data"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

For HTTP-capable MCP clients, point the client at:

```text
https://<railway-domain>/mcp
```

Example JSON-RPC call:

```bash
curl -X POST https://<railway-domain>/mcp \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'
```

## MCP Output Schemas

Every MCP tool publishes an `outputSchema` through `tools/list`. This tells ChatGPT and other MCP clients what structured JSON shape to expect before they call a tool.

Tool calls also return `structuredContent` alongside the human-readable JSON text response. The text response is kept for compatibility, while `structuredContent` is the preferred machine-readable result for agents. For example, `create_poster` can return `valid: false` with `missing` fields and `questions`, `search_posters` returns an `items` array, and schedule mutation tools return `success`, `conflicts`, and `saveState`.

This matters for this server because many tools are workflow tools, not one-shot generators. The schema helps the agent understand when it must ask for missing poster settings, when explicit schedule save is still required, and how to safely inspect conflicts or render artifact paths.

## Tools

Poster tools:

- `get_center_profile`
- `update_center_profile`
- `search_posters`
- `get_poster`
- `create_poster`
- `update_poster`
- `reuse_poster_template`
- `import_poster`
- `render_poster`
- `add_design_feedback`
- `get_design_feedback`
- `recommend_poster_style`

Schedule tools:

- `get_schedule_settings`
- `update_schedule_settings`
- `inspect_schedule_file`
- `import_schedule_file`
- `create_schedule_template`
- `get_schedule`
- `generate_weekly_schedule`
- `set_schedule_slot`
- `clear_schedule_slot`
- `find_available_slots`
- `validate_schedule`
- `add_center_closure`
- `remove_center_closure`
- `get_center_closures`
- `save_schedule`
- `export_schedule`
- `create_schedule_poster`

## Poster Creation Flow

`create_poster` reads the center profile, applies center defaults, validates the `PosterBrief`, gathers relevant feedback, resolves the layout and theme, renders static HTML/CSS, writes metadata/content/source files, and optionally renders PNG/PDF.

The required order is:

```text
user request
-> center profile defaults
-> PosterBrief
-> validation
-> ask only missing questions
-> past posters and feedback
-> HTML/CSS
-> optional render
-> archive save
```

Required poster brief decisions are validated before generation:

- `eventName`
- `programSeparation`
- `tablePreference`
- `tableStyle` when a table is required or provided
- `vatPolicy` when price content exists

The server returns `valid: false`, `missing`, and Korean `questions` instead of guessing missing event names, VAT policy, or program separation.

`programSeparation` and `tableStyle` are separate decisions. For example, group/private products can use `programSeparation: "table"` with `tableStyle: "split"` to render separate GROUP/PRIVATE table blocks. `tablePreference` represents user intent; `layout` is the final renderer choice.

Center defaults can reduce repeated questions:

```json
{
  "posterDefaults": {
    "programSeparation": "table",
    "tablePreference": "required",
    "tableStyle": "split",
    "vatPolicy": "excluded"
  }
}
```

Priority is: current request and `PosterBrief`, then center profile defaults, then a validation response asking the user for only missing values. VAT is never inferred.

}
```

### 최근 1년 기록 기반 스타일 추천

```json
{

}
```

## Feedback

Feedback is stored in JSON files, not hard-coded. `create_poster` retrieves active global and layout-scoped feedback and includes it in the result as `appliedFeedback`.

Example:

```json
{
  "scope": "table",
  "text": "이벤트가는 정상가보다 확실히 강조."
}
```

## Rendering

`render_poster` uses Playwright Chromium with JavaScript disabled. Supported sizes:

- `instagram-portrait`: 1080 x 1350
- `instagram-square`: 1080 x 1080
- `story`: 1080 x 1920
- `a4-portrait`: A4 portrait

HTML/CSS are the source of truth. PNG/PDF are optional rendered artifacts.

## Schedule Workspace

Phase 2 adds a local-first Schedule Workspace for Pilates group/private timetables. It is not a CRM. Private schedules may contain `displayName` only for grid display and operational placement.

Core model:

- `ScheduleSettings`: week display, opening/closing time, default slot minutes, holiday option, locale, country code
- `ScheduleTemplate`: explicit-save weekly group/private template
- `ScheduleSlot`: neutral domain slot separate from Excel cells
- `ScheduleTemplateMapping`: XLSX worksheet/header/time/day-column mapping
- `CenterClosure`: center-specific closed dates, separate from national holidays

`set_schedule_slot` changes an in-memory dirty workspace. It is not persisted until `save_schedule` is called. `export_schedule` writes XLSX and backs up an existing XLSX before replacing it.

Existing XLSX files are handled by `inspect_schedule_file` and `import_schedule_file`. The importer captures worksheet name, used range, day columns, time column, column widths, row heights, and merges where available. Formulas are not executed.

Holiday handling is provider-based. Phase 2 includes a local provider with basic KR holiday fixtures and can be replaced later by an external provider without changing the domain model. Center closures have priority over public holidays, but occupied slots are not silently deleted; warnings are returned.

Railway serves a lightweight Excel-style workspace at `/schedule` with sticky headers, direct cell editing, delete/backspace, and visible save state. MCP remains the source of actual schedule operations.

### Schedule Examples

Scenario A, create a new group timetable when no file exists:

```json
{
  "scheduleType": "group",
  "settings": {
    "weekDisplay": "mon-sat",
    "openingTime": "09:00",
    "closingTime": "21:00",
    "defaultSlotMinutes": 60,
    "autoHolidayMarking": true,
    "locale": "ko-KR",
    "countryCode": "KR"
  }
}
```

Scenario B, import an existing Excel file and generate next week:

```json
{ "filePath": "fixtures/group_schedule.xlsx", "scheduleType": "group" }
```

```json
{
  "scheduleType": "group",
  "weekStart": "2026-10-05",
  "applyHolidays": true,
  "applyCenterClosures": true
}
```

Scenario C, private schedule operation:

```json
{
  "scheduleType": "private",
  "dayOfWeek": "monday",
  "startTime": "19:00",
  "displayName": "김OO"
}
```

Scenario D, group schedule poster:

```json
{
  "scheduleType": "group",
  "weekStart": "2026-10-05",
  "title": "9월 그룹레슨 시간표",
  "render": { "png": true, "pdf": true, "size": "instagram-portrait" }
}
```

## Security And Privacy

The archive uses generated poster IDs and validates poster IDs before file access. Archive-relative imports are checked to block `../` traversal and root escape. Generated poster HTML is static, user text is HTML-escaped, and remote scripts are not part of the template. Rendering disables JavaScript.

Phase 1 excludes member management, reservations, payments, SMS, Instagram posting, StudioMate integration, external design scraping, image generation AI, cloud DB requirements, and SaaS authentication.

Phase 2 permits only `displayName` as person-related schedule display data. It does not create fields for phone, email, address, birth date, gender, health condition, medical history, payment, membership, consultation, attendance profile, or marketing consent. Names are not used for profiling, analytics, poster feedback, marketing, or recommendations.

Phase 2 still excludes StudioMate integration, StudioMate scraping, Chrome extension automation, member CRM, contact management, payment management, attendance analysis, member preference profiling, automatic booking confirmation, SMS, KakaoTalk, Instagram posting, payroll, settlement, and complex ERP features.

## Extension Points

The service/repository split keeps room for future semantic search or another index. External design references can be added later behind a provider interface such as:

```ts
interface DesignReferenceProvider {
  search(query: string): Promise<DesignReference[]>;
}
```

Phase 1 does not implement scraping or copying external templates.

TDQS

B3.3/5.0

Scored across 29 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools map to distinct resource-action pairs, and the descriptions generally make boundaries clear. The closest potential confusions are create_schedule_poster vs. create_poster and inspect_schedule_file vs. import_schedule_file, but each has enough distinction to guide selection.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names consistently follow a snake_case verb_noun pattern, such as get_schedule, update_center_profile, render_poster, and validate_schedule. There are no mixed naming conventions or vague one-word tool names.

Tool Count2/5

29 tools is above the comfortable range for a single MCP server and crosses the 'too many' threshold. While the tools are organized into settings, schedule, and poster workflows, the large surface increases selection burden and makes the server feel heavy.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface covers center profile settings, schedule import/template/validation/save/export, and poster creation/archive/render/feedback/search comprehensively. Minor lifecycle gaps exist, such as no explicit delete operation for a poster or an entire saved schedule template, but these are workaroundable.
