MODEL CONTEXT PROTOCOL

MCP tools & contracts

Planned capability. Expose deterministic engineering facts to AI agents via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — — blast radius, features, and decisions as structured tools, not chat guesses.

Roadmap

MCP server not in v1.0 — Tool contracts below are the target design for the Verification Engine wave. You cannot connect to http://localhost:8000/mcp today. v1.0 ships Engine, chat, Context Lens, quality map, and image evidence instead. Features in v1.0.

What is MCP?

MCP is an open protocol so AI clients (Cursor, Claude Desktop, internal agents) can call tools with typed inputs and JSON outputs — like REST for agents. ContextMint's MCP layer will expose read-only graph queries your security team can scope with RBAC. Writes still use human-gated patch preview.

Planned tool catalog

get_blast_radius

Blast radius — list impacted services, files, and teams if a node changes or fails. Maps to /fabric/explain or a pre-computed dependency closure.

“What breaks if we remove Payments API?”

get_feature

Feature registry lookup — entry points, owners, and related graph nodes for a named product feature.

get_decision

Decision graph trace — ADRs and architecture intent with evidence ledger and verification status.

get_trace

CI/CD path — deployment → feature → failure linkage (enterprise, after external-memory graph work).

Response contract

Every tool response will validate against AgentContextContract — a fixed JSON schema so agents and CI gates can trust fields like verification_status and evidence paths. See Agent governance.

Example client config (when shipped)

Illustrative only — endpoint and auth will match your deployment profile (local Engine or sovereign server).
