witan-core

Shared core for the two witan MCP servers — witan (dist witan-council, mcp/servers/witan) and witan-code (mcp/servers/witan-code). It is the third shared packages/ sibling alongside agent-config-kit, wired into both servers via a [tool.uv.sources] editable path (dev/CI) plus a published PyPI version range.

Why

The two servers were built copy-paste-and-diverge and carried an explicit "deliberately duplicated — no cross-package import" convention. As the shared surface grew, fixes had to be applied twice and silently drifted — including code that is contractually required to stay identical (the repo-key canonicalizer behind the cross-layer symbol join key; the pinned omnigraph binary version, kept in lockstep by a fragile Renovate custom manager).

witan-core deliberately reverses that convention. The full rationale, scope, and per-extraction contracts live in docs/design/witan-core-extraction-spec.md.

Invariant

witan_core imports neither witan nor witan_code. It is a leaf below both, preserving the one-directional witanwitan_code optional-mount DAG (witan mounts witan-code as witan code; witan-code never imports witan).

Dependencies

The base package is stdlib-only. Heavier concerns are gated behind extras so neither server pulls weight it doesn't use:

  • witan-core[cli]cyclopts, rich (CLI scaffolding, styled installer output)
  • witan-core[mcp]fastmcp (MCP elicitation primitives)

What's here

Extracted so far (each deletes the duplicated copies from both servers):

  • _detach.popen_detached — cross-platform detached subprocess spawning
  • omnigraph_install — the pinned-omnigraph-binary installer (single source of the version; rich imported lazily)
  • elicit — the confirm/text MCP elicitation primitives (needs the mcp extra; not re-exported from the package root)
  • repo_keynormalise + find_git_config, the cross-layer repo-key canonicalizer, with a golden contract test
  • timeutil.now_iso
  • maintenance — the throttled-optimize stamp/interval/due mechanics
  • omnigraph.OmnigraphClient — the omnigraph-CLI subprocess wrapper base (write lock, retry/repair, admission-cap backoff); each server subclasses it (witan adds apply_schema; witan-code adds branch ops + bulk load)
  • config_file.load_toml — shared config.toml loading (WITAN_CONFIG env var). Both servers read the same file, so one [targets.<name>] block can override both at once.
  • target_config — the [targets.<name>] match/select logic: match_target (priority match_paths > match_repos > match_hosts > match_orgs), parse_target_tables, to_list, local_project_path. Each server keeps its own typed target model (different override fields — witan's server/graph/token/…, witan-code's code_dir) and calls into this shared matcher, which is structurally typed over just the four match_* lists.

Still local to each server (intentionally): the CLI scaffolding — its extraction coordinates with the in-flight multi-user deployment work (see the spec).
