## 🎯 Overview

`coaiapy-mcp` exposes the powerful capabilities of [coaiapy](https://pypi.org/project/coaiapy/) through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling any MCP-compatible LLM to leverage:

- **Langfuse Observability**: Traces, observations, prompts, datasets, score configurations
- **Redis Data Stashing**: Persistent key-value storage
- **Pipeline Automation**: Template-based workflow creation
- **Audio Processing**: Transcription and synthesis via AWS Polly
- **Persona Prompts**: Mia & Miette dual AI embodiment for narrative-driven technical work

### Why coaiapy-mcp?

**Separation of Concerns:**
- `coaiapy`: Core functionality (Python 3.6+ for Pythonista iOS compatibility)
- `coaiapy-mcp`: Modern MCP wrapper (Python 3.10+)
- Both packages coexist independently without dependency conflicts

**LLM Integration:**
- Standardized MCP protocol interface
- Type-safe tools, resources, and prompts
- Works with any MCP-compatible LLM (Claude, GPT-4, etc.)

---

## 📦 Installation

```bash
# Install coaiapy-mcp (includes coaiapy as dependency)
pip install coaiapy-mcp

# Or install from source
git clone https://github.com/jgwill/coaiapy-mcp.git
cd coaiapy-mcp
pip install -e .
```

### Prerequisites

- Python 3.10 or higher
- Redis server (for tash/fetch operations)
- AWS credentials (for audio processing)
- Langfuse account (for observability features)

---

## 🚀 Quick Start

### 1. Start the MCP Server

```bash
coaiapy-mcp start
```

### 2. Connect Your LLM

Configure your MCP-compatible LLM client to connect to the server:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "coaiapy": {
      "command": "coaiapy-mcp",
      "args": ["start"]
    }
  }
}
```

### 3. Use MCP Tools

**Example: Create Langfuse Trace**
```python
# In your LLM conversation
Use coaia_fuse_trace_create to create a trace:
- trace_id: "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
- user_id: "john_doe"
- name: "Data Pipeline Execution"
```

**Example: Stash to Redis**
```python
Use coaia_tash to store data:
- key: "pipeline_result"
- value: "Processing completed successfully"
```

**Example: Load Mia & Miette Prompt**
```python
Use mia_miette_duo prompt with variables:
- task_context: "Design observability pipeline"

## 📖 Examples

### Complete Observability Workflow

```python
# 1. Create trace with input/output data (PREFERRED)
trace_id = "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
result = coaia_fuse_trace_create(
    trace_id=trace_id,
    user_id="data_engineer",
    name="ETL Pipeline Execution",
    input_data={
        "source": "sales_database",
        "query": "SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE date > '2024-01-01'",
        "parameters": {"limit": 1000}
    },
    output_data={
        "rows_processed": 1000,
        "status": "success",
        "duration_ms": 1234
    },
    metadata={
        "environment": "production",
        "version": "1.0.0"
    }
)

# 2. Add observations with input/output (PREFERRED)
obs_id_1 = "660e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440001"
coaia_fuse_add_observation(
    observation_id=obs_id_1,
    trace_id=trace_id,
    name="Data Validation",
    observation_type="SPAN",
    input_data={
        "schema_version": "v2",
        "validation_rules": ["not_null", "unique_id"]
    },
    output_data={
        "valid_rows": 995,
        "invalid_rows": 5,
        "errors": ["duplicate_id: row_123"]
    },
    metadata={
        "validator": "json_schema_v4"
    }
)

# 2. Add observations
obs_id_1 = "660e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440001"
coaia_fuse_add_observation(
    observation_id=obs_id_1,
    trace_id=trace_id,
    name="Data Validation",
    type="SPAN"
)

obs_id_2 = "660e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440002"
coaia_fuse_add_observation(
    observation_id=obs_id_2,
    trace_id=trace_id,
    name="Data Transformation",
    observation_type="SPAN",
    parent_id=obs_id_1,
    input_data={
        "valid_rows": 995,
        "transformation": "normalize_dates"
    },
    output_data={
        "transformed_rows": 995,
        "format": "iso8601"
    }
)

# 3. View trace tree
trace_data = coaia_fuse_trace_view(trace_id=trace_id)

# 4. Stash results to Redis
coaia_tash("etl_trace_id", trace_id)
```

**Best Practice**: Always use `input_data` and `output_data` fields to capture what went into an operation and what came out. Reserve `metadata` for tags, labels, and configuration details.

### Using Template Resources

```python
# List available templates
templates = read_resource("coaia://templates/")
# Returns: ["simple-trace", "data-pipeline", "llm-chain", ...]

# Get specific template
template_data = read_resource("coaia://templates/data-pipeline")
# Returns: {
#   "name": "data-pipeline",
#   "description": "Multi-step data processing workflow",
#   "variables": ["pipeline_name", "data_source", ...],
#   "steps": [...]
# }
```

### Mia & Miette Narrative Architecture

```python
# Load Mia & Miette prompt
Use prompt: mia_miette_duo
Variables:
  - task_context: "Design microservices architecture for storytelling platform"
  - technical_details: "Event-driven system with Langfuse observability"
  - creative_goal: "Narrative-driven creation workflow with structural tension"

# Response will include:

## 📝 Implementation Notes

### Why Library Imports Instead of Subprocess?

The original plan called for subprocess wrappers, but this approach has:

**Problems:**
- ❌ Environment variable propagation issues
- ❌ Slower execution (process creation overhead)
- ❌ Complex error handling (parsing stderr)
- ❌ Credential management challenges

**Benefits of library imports:**
- [DONE] Direct Python function calls - fast and clean
- [DONE] Proper exception handling with typed errors
- [DONE] Direct access to return values (no JSON parsing)
- [DONE] Shared configuration (load once, use everywhere)
- [DONE] No environment variable inheritance issues

### Configuration Management

Configuration is loaded once on module import via `coaiamodule.read_config()`:

```python
from coaiapy import coaiamodule

# Load config once
config = coaiamodule.read_config()

# Initialize clients with config
redis_client = redis.Redis(**config.get("jtaleconf", {}))
langfuse_client = Langfuse(
    secret_key=config.get("langfuse_secret_key"),
    public_key=config.get("langfuse_public_key"),
    host=config.get("langfuse_host", "https://cloud.langfuse.com")
)
```

### Error Handling Pattern

All tools follow a consistent error handling pattern:

```python
async def tool_function(params) -> Dict[str, Any]:
    try:
        # Perform operation
        result = do_something(params)
        return {
            "success": True,
            "data": result
        }
    except Exception as e:
        return {
            "success": False,
            "error": str(e)
        }
```

This ensures:
- No uncaught exceptions crash the MCP server
- Consistent response format for all tools
- Proper error messages for debugging

---

## 🔍 Code Quality

- [DONE] Type hints throughout
- [DONE] Comprehensive docstrings
- [DONE] Async/await patterns
- [DONE] Error handling best practices
- [DONE] Modular design (tools, resources, prompts, server)
- [DONE] Test coverage for all modules
