## Architecture

MENTORR runs as a single FastMCP server over stdio. All 29 tools are registered on one `FastMCP("MENTORR")` instance, organized into 4 domain modules:

```
mentorr-server (stdio)
  |-- physics.py    (15 tools)
  |-- inventory.py  (6 tools)
  |-- logic.py      (5 tools)
  |-- guide.py      (3 tools + 1 resource)
  |-- helpers.py    (shared utilities)
  |-- pipeline/     (scraper modules)
  +-- data/         (bundled knowledge base)
```

User data (projects, inventory) is stored in `~/.mentorr/` by default.
