## 🎯 Key Features

### 1. JSON Schema Validation

Every tool has:
- **Input schema** — validates parameters before execution
- **Output schema** — validates return value

Example:
```json
{
  "decay_now": {
    "parameters": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "lambda": {"type": "number", "minimum": 0}
      }
    },
    "returns": {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "edges_pruned": {"type": "integer"},
        "edges_remaining": {"type": "integer"}
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### 2. Per-Tool Rate Limiting

5 tools have rate limits:
- `decay_now` — 1.0 second minimum
- `ingest_pcap` — 10.0 second minimum
- `run_tak_ml` — 2.0 second minimum
- `set_decay_lambda` — 1.0 second minimum
- `reload_rules` — 5.0 second minimum

All other tools: unlimited (read-only safe)

### 3. Audit Logging

Every tool execution creates an audit record:
```json
{
  "uuid": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000",
  "timestamp": 1740515400.123,
  "tool": "decay_now",
  "mutates_state": true,
  "params": {"lambda": 0.001},
  "result_summary": {"edges_pruned": 3, "edges_remaining": 42}
}
```

### 4. Dynamic Introspection

LLM agents can query `tools/schema` to:
- Discover available tools
- Learn parameter requirements
- Understand return types
- Determine rate limits
- Identify state-mutating tools

### 5. Safety Classification

Each tool marked:
- `mutates_state: true` — modifies engine (11 tools)
- `mutates_state: false` — read-only (12 tools)

Enables static analysis: "Will this sequence of calls modify state?"

  }'
```

from mcp_server import MCPHandler
handler = MCPHandler(engine)
response = handler.handle({
    "jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call",

## 🚀 What This Enables

### For LLM Agents
- ✅ Discover capabilities dynamically (tools/schema)
- ✅ Understand constraints per tool (schemas, rate limits)
- ✅ Plan safely (identify state-mutating tools)
- ✅ Execute deterministically (validated input/output)

### For Operators
- ✅ Audit every operation (UUID + timestamp + payload)
- ✅ Control abuse (per-tool rate limiting)
- ✅ Prevent errors (JSON schema validation)
- ✅ Monitor health (diagnostics tools)

### For The System
- ✅ Safe remote execution (validation gates)
- ✅ Observable (audit logs + metrics)
- ✅ Extensible (declarative registry)
- ✅ Production-grade (all error handling in place)

## 📋 Next Steps

### Immediate (Ready now)
1. ✅ Deploy to production
2. ✅ Connect LLM agents (TAK-GPT, Gemma, etc.)
3. ✅ Monitor `/mcp` endpoint

### Short-term (Optional enhancements)
1. Upgrade rate limiting to Redis (for distributed deployments)
2. Add tool authorization (RBAC per tool)
3. Create metrics exporter (Prometheus)
4. Add batch operations support

### Long-term (Future evolution)
1. Agent workflow engine (compose tools)
2. GraphOps visualization UI (tool invocation)
3. Time-series audit querying
4. Distributed rate limiting across instances
