aidocs-mcp 2.2.0b1

Portable AI coding-agent toolkit — MCP server with indexed code retrieval, session management, and persistent memory

AIDOCS MCP

v2.2.0b — The orchestration layer for AI coding agents — persistent memory, conductor, dashboard, and multi-agent workflows.

What's New in 2.1.0b

• Agent-agnostic orchestration — AgentOrchestrator decouples gate logic from Claude Code; single check_tool() entry point
• Heuristic judge — 30+ rules with config-driven [[policies.dangerous]] for argument-level risk assessment
• Output guard — post-execution credential/injection scanning with auto-redaction
• Metrics — Prometheus-compatible counters (tokens, tool calls, guard stats)
• Circuit breakers — per-server failure tracking with exponential backoff
• Edit history/rollback — diff-based undo with SQLite storage
• SQLite config store — replaces TOML for runtime settings; TOML for static definitions only
• RBAC — users, roles (admin/operator/viewer), 15 permissions
• Code runner — structured bash replacements (code_build, code_test, code_run)
• Tool policies — admin allow/deny glob patterns
• MCP registry — official registry browser with search and install commands
• Skill scanner — content/supply-chain/capability/vulnerability risk assessment
• Context compaction — budget tracking + journal pruning + token reset on compaction
• Deferred tool loading — 50 eager tools visible, 70+ discovered via ToolSearch keywords
• PostCompact hook — resets token counters when host compacts context
• Conductor MCP tools — start/send/stop/status for conductor workflows
• OpenAI Agents SDK adapter — AIDOCSRunHooks for openai-agents SDK
• Dashboard — Tauri desktop app with monitoring, conductor, skills, MCP registry, settings pages
• 1287 tests

What's in 2.0.0

• Smart installer — manifest-based three-way merge, tag-based CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md updates

Principles

• Files remain the only source of truth
• MCP reads, validates, and writes existing AIDOCS files — never a second canonical memory
• MCP is optional; the Markdown system works without it
• Indexes are project-wide; sessions guide retrieval, not index scope
• SQLite indexes are derived only — rebuildable from files

Install

pip install aidocs-mcp              # from PyPI
pip install aidocs-mcp[dev]         # with pytest
pip install aidocs-mcp[ast]         # with tree-sitter for JS/TS AST parsing

Or from source:

cd mcp
pip install -e ".[dev,ast]"

Gate Architecture

6-level cascade, first match wins:

Level	Gate	Action
1	Managed Mode	Block raw file tools when managed
2	Infrastructure	Block writes to aidocs.toml, aidocs_mcp/*
3	Sensitive Files	Block .env, credentials, keys
4	Memory Path	.MEMORY/ reads free, workflow writes intent-gated
5	Read Gate	Per-file discovery, known_exact_path bypass
6	Edit Gate	Requires prior read/discovery

Tool Model

85+ tools organized by purpose. Agents should start with entry points, not memorize all tools.

Entry Points

• orchestrate — /aidocs bootstrap/orchestration
• classify_prompt + route_prompt — advisory routing
• code_investigate — broad "start here" investigation
• code_find — unified symbol/reference search
• code_trace — relationship tracing
• code_bundle — context retrieval
• schema_query — database schema

Core Runtime

• managed mode: mode_get, mode_set, mode_clear
• sessions: session_start, session_list, session_select, session_create
• tasks: task_begin, task_update, task_complete
• memory: memory_read, memory_capture, memory_search
• project: project_init, project_bootstrap_or_resume, project_sync_indexes

Code Operations

• read: code_get_lines, code_text_search, code_search
• edit: code_edit_lines, code_str_replace, code_batch_str_replace, code_batch_edit
• create: code_create_file, code_insert_lines
• analysis: code_find_dead_code, code_find_stale_references, code_suggest_extractions

Precision Helpers

• code_get_method_signature / code_get_method_signatures
• code_get_constructor_params / code_get_constructor_params_batch
• code_get_enum_values, code_get_entity_properties, code_get_service_api

Run

pip install aidocs-mcp
aidocs --version
aidocs-mcp   # start MCP server
