Project TODO List

This document outlines the tasks to be completed for the mcp-bridge project.

Phase 1: Core Functionality

• Project Setup
  • Initialize Git repository and connect to remote
  • Create directory structure (/src, /test, /dist)
  • Create placeholder build-test-deploy.sh and install.sh
• Configuration Handling
  • Implement YAML parsing for config.yaml
  • Implement loading of service-specific YAML files
  • Finalize YAML structure (e.g., use a map for services, add command for adapter)
• HTTP Server
  • Create basic HTTP server that binds to localhost
  • Implement configurable port via command-line flag
• MCP Adapter Management
  • Implement logic to spawn MCP adapters as child processes
  • Manage the lifecycle of adapter processes (start, stop)
• MCP Communication
  • Implement stdio-based communication with child processes
  • Implement JSON-RPC 2.0 message serialization/deserialization
• Request Routing
  • Implement handler to parse ?service= query parameter
  • Route incoming HTTP requests to the correct MCP service based on the query param
  • Handle default service logic when the query param is omitted

Phase 2: Features & Refinements

• Endpoint Mapping
  • Map HTTP POST requests to the tools/call MCP method
  • Pass request body as parameters to the MCP call
• Error Handling
  • Translate MCP errors to appropriate HTTP status codes (400, 500)
  • Implement graceful handling for config errors, missing services, etc.
• Logging
  • Add structured logging for requests, responses, and errors
  • Implement configurable verbosity via a command-line flag (e.g., -v)
• Configuration Reload
  • Implement dynamic config reload via SIGHUP signal
  • Implement /reload HTTP endpoint
  • Define and implement session/process behavior on reload

Phase 3: Testing & Distribution

• Build & Installation Scripts
  • Populate build-test-deploy.sh to compile for multiple architectures (macOS, Linux, Windows) and place binaries in ./dist
  • Populate install.sh to download and install the correct binary for the user's system
• Testing
  • Create basic unit tests for HTTP handling and request routing in /test
  • Create integration tests for MCP communication
• Documentation
  • Create README.md with comprehensive installation, configuration, and usage instructions
  • Provide sample config.yaml and service1.yaml files
• Finalization
  • Commit compiled binaries to the ./dist directory
  • Tag a version v1.0.0
