# OpenAPI Introspection Tool Implementation Plan

> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.

**Goal:** Implement the `openproject_get_openapi_spec` MCP tool and supporting `OpenApiService` to enable dynamic OpenAPI 3.0 introspection with in-memory caching and token-efficient scoping (summary, path, tag, schema, full).

**Architecture:** A domain service `getOpenApiSpec` fetches `GET /api/v3/openapi.json` using the ambient `OpenProjectClient`, caches the parsed ~1.18 MB document in memory by `baseUrl`, and filters/formats the response into compact JSON structures for LLM consumption. The tool definition in `src/tools/openapi.ts` registers `openproject_get_openapi_spec` with `readOnly: true`, plugged into `allTools`.

**Tech Stack:** Bun (v1.3.14), TypeScript (strict mode), `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`, `zod`, `bun:test`.

**Spec:** `docs/specs/2026-09-06-openapi-tool-design.md`

## Global Constraints

- Runtime & Package Manager: Bun (>= 1.2 / 1.3), `bun test` for test execution.
- Strict TypeScript: `strict: true`, no `any` (use explicit types or `unknown` with type guards).
- Stateless execution & RequestContext: Resolve client using `resolveClient(client)` from `src/services/helper.ts`.
- In-memory caching: Cache parsed OpenAPI spec keyed by `client.baseUrl`, invalidated only when `refresh: true`.
- Stdio stream hygiene: All diagnostics and lifecycle logs use `console.error` (never `console.log`).
- Read-only compatibility: Tool marked `readOnly: true`, registered in both read-only and read-write modes.

### Task 1: OpenAPI Domain Service & In-Memory Caching

**Files:**
- Create: `src/services/openapi.ts`
- Modify: `src/services/index.ts`
- Create: `tests/openapi.test.ts`

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: `src/services/helper.ts` (`resolveClient`), `src/client/api-client.ts` (`OpenProjectClient`, `OpenProjectNotFoundError`)
- Produces:
  ```typescript
  export interface OpenApiQueryOptions {
    path?: string;
    tag?: string;
    schema?: string;
    full?: boolean;
    refresh?: boolean;
  }

  export interface OpenApiSummary {
    title: string;
    version: string;
    openapi: string;
    totalPaths: number;
    tags: Array<{ name: string; endpointCount: number }>;
    availablePaths: string[];
    instructions: string;
  }

### Task 3: Live Container Integration, Suite Regression Updates & Roadmap Checkoff

**Files:**
- Modify: `tests/openapi.test.ts`
- Modify: `tests/tools.test.ts`
- Modify: `tests/read-only.test.ts`
- Modify: `tests/mcp-server.test.ts`
- Modify: `docs/TODO.md`

**Interfaces:**
- Consumes: Live OpenProject 17 container on `http://localhost:8080`, `src/server.ts`, `allTools`
- Produces: Updated test suites expecting 11 tools, end-to-end verified live OpenAPI querying, and updated project tracking.

- [x] **Step 1: Add live container integration test to `tests/openapi.test.ts`**

```typescript
describe("Live Container OpenAPI Integration", () => {
  const baseUrl = process.env.OPENPROJECT_BASE_URL || "http://localhost:8080";
  const apiKey = process.env.OPENPROJECT_API_KEY || "";

  test("live: getOpenApiSpec returns live OpenProject 17 summary", async () => {
    const liveClient = new OpenProjectClient({ baseUrl, apiKey });
    const summary = (await getOpenApiSpec({}, liveClient)) as OpenApiSummary;

    expect(summary.totalPaths).toBeGreaterThan(200);
    expect(summary.tags.length).toBeGreaterThan(30);

    expect(paramNames).toContain("offset");
    expect(paramNames).toContain("pageSize");
  });
});
```

- [x] **Step 2: Update tool count expectations in existing tests**

- In `tests/tools.test.ts`:
  - `allTools contains exactly 10 Phase 1 tools` -> update to `allTools contains exactly 11 tools including OpenAPI spec` and `expect(allTools).toHaveLength(11)`.
  - `registerAllTools registers all 10 tools on McpServer` -> update length expectation from 10 to 11.
  - `registerAllTools filters out non-readOnly tools when readOnly is true` -> update length expectation from 10 to 11.
- In `tests/read-only.test.ts`:
  - `read-only server lists all 10 Phase 1 tools` -> update expectation from 10 to 11.
  - `read-only mode filters out mutating tools from tools/list` -> update expectation from 10 to 11.
- In `tests/mcp-server.test.ts`:
  - `read-only mode filters tools and maintains read-only status in context` -> update length expectation from 10 to 11.

- [x] **Step 3: Run full test suite**

Run: `bun test`
Expected: All tests pass cleanly across all test files (`smoke`, `client`, `services`, `tools`, `mcp-server`, `read-only`, `openapi`).

- [x] **Step 4: Update `docs/TODO.md`**

Add `openproject_get_openapi_spec` tool under completed roadmap and record OpenAPI tool implementation.

- [x] **Step 5: Commit**

```bash
git add tests/openapi.test.ts tests/tools.test.ts tests/read-only.test.ts tests/mcp-server.test.ts docs/TODO.md
git commit -m "test(openapi): add live container tests, update tool count assertions, and update TODO.md"
```
