## The Problem: Your AI is Stuck in 2021
<table>
<tr>
<td width="50%" align="center">
### 😡 Without Flutter MCP
```dart
// User: "How do I use Riverpod to watch a future?"
// AI generates (outdated):
final userProvider = FutureProvider((ref) async {
return fetchUser();
});
// WRONG! Missing autoDispose, family, etc.
```
**Result**: Deprecation warnings, confused debugging, time wasted on Google
</td>
<td width="50%" align="center">
### ✅ With Flutter MCP
```dart
// User: "How do I use @flutter_mcp riverpod:^2.5.0 to watch a future?"
// AI generates (using v2.5.1 docs):
final userProvider = FutureProvider.autoDispose
.family<User, String>((ref, userId) async {
return ref.watch(apiProvider).fetchUser(userId);
});
// Correct, version-specific, actually works!
```
**Result**: Code works immediately, you ship faster
</td>
</tr>
</table>
## 🚀 Quick Start
### Installation
Get started in seconds with npm:
```bash
# One-line usage (no installation required)
npx flutter-mcp

<details open>
<summary><strong>Claude Desktop</strong></summary>
Edit `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["flutter-mcp"]
}
}
}
```
Or if you installed globally:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "flutter-mcp"
}
}
}
```
Restart Claude Desktop after saving. The server will automatically install dependencies on first run.
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>Claude Code (claude.ai/code)</strong></summary>
Create a `.mcp.json` file in your Flutter project root:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["flutter-mcp"]
}
}
}
```
Then run Claude Code in your project directory:
```bash
cd your-flutter-project
claude
```
Flutter MCP will automatically provide documentation for all packages in your `pubspec.yaml`.
**Alternative: Global npm install**
If you installed globally with `npm install -g flutter-mcp`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "flutter-mcp"
}
}
}
```
**Important:** Don't use the `--dangerously-skip-permissions` flag when running Claude Code, as it prevents MCP servers from being loaded.
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>Cursor / Windsurf</strong></summary>
In Settings → MCP Servers, add:
```json
{
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["flutter-mcp"]
}
}
```
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>MCP SuperAssistant</strong></summary>
MCP SuperAssistant requires HTTP transport. Configure it with:
1. Start the server with HTTP transport:
```bash
npx flutter-mcp --transport http --port 8000
```
2. In MCP SuperAssistant, add a new server:
- **Name**: Flutter MCP
- **URL**: `http://localhost:8000`
- **Type**: HTTP MCP Server
3. The server will now be available in your MCP SuperAssistant client.
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>VS Code + Continue</strong></summary>
In your `.continuerc.json`:
```json
{
"models": [
{
"provider": "claude",
"mcp_servers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["flutter-mcp"]
}
}
}
]
}
```
</details>
### 3. Start the Server (Optional for Testing)
<details>
<summary>Manual server control and transport options</summary>
```bash
# Default STDIO mode (for Claude Desktop)
npx flutter-mcp
# HTTP transport (for MCP SuperAssistant)
npx flutter-mcp --transport http --port 8000
# SSE transport
npx flutter-mcp --transport sse --port 8080
# Custom host binding
npx flutter-mcp --transport http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3000
# If installed globally
flutter-mcp-server --transport http --port 8000
```
**Transport Options:**
- Default (no flag) - STDIO for Claude Desktop and most MCP clients
- `--transport http` - For HTTP-based clients like MCP SuperAssistant
- `--transport sse` - For Server-Sent Events based clients
- `--port PORT` - Port for HTTP/SSE transport (default: 8000)
- `--host HOST` - Host to bind to (default: 127.0.0.1)
Note: When configured in Claude Desktop, the server starts automatically using STDIO transport.
</details>
### 3. Use It!
Flutter MCP now features simplified tools following Context7's successful pattern - just 2 main tools instead of 5!
#### 🎯 New Simplified Usage (Recommended)
The AI assistant can now use Flutter MCP more intelligently:
```
# Universal search
"Search for Flutter animation widgets"
"Find state management packages"
"Look for HTTP clients in pub.dev"
# Smart documentation fetching
"Show me Container widget documentation"
"Get the docs for provider package"
"Explain dart:async Future class"
```
#### 💫 Natural Language Support
Your AI will automatically detect Flutter/Dart content and fetch relevant docs:
```
"How do I implement infinite scroll with infinite_scroll_pagination?"
"Show me dio interceptors for auth tokens"
"What's the difference between bloc and riverpod?"
```
#### 🔧 Legacy Support
The `@flutter_mcp` mentions still work for backward compatibility:
```
"Explain @flutter_mcp freezed code generation"
"Show me all @flutter_mcp get_it service locator patterns"
```
### 🎯 Version-Specific Documentation (NEW!)
Get documentation for specific package versions using familiar pub.dev syntax:
```
# Exact versions
"Show me @flutter_mcp provider:6.0.5 breaking changes"
"How does @flutter_mcp riverpod:2.5.1 AsyncNotifier work?"
# Version ranges
"Compare @flutter_mcp dio:^5.0.0 vs @flutter_mcp dio:^4.0.0"
"What's new in @flutter_mcp bloc:>=8.0.0?"
# Special keywords
"Try @flutter_mcp get:latest experimental features"
"Is @flutter_mcp provider:stable production ready?"
```
See [Version Specification Guide](docs/VERSION_SPECIFICATION.md) for details.
## 📚 Available Tools
### 🎯 NEW: Simplified Tools (Context7-style)
Flutter MCP now provides just 2 main tools, making it easier for AI assistants to use:
### 1. `flutter_search` - Universal Search
Search across Flutter/Dart documentation and pub.dev packages with intelligent ranking.
```json
{
"tool": "flutter_search",
"arguments": {
"query": "state management",
"limit": 10 // Optional: max results (default: 10)
}
}
```
Returns multiple options for the AI to choose from, including Flutter classes, Dart libraries, pub packages, and concepts.
### 2. `flutter_docs` - Smart Documentation Fetcher
Get documentation for any Flutter/Dart identifier with automatic type detection.
```json
{
"tool": "flutter_docs",
"arguments": {
"identifier": "Container", // Auto-detects as Flutter widget
"topic": "examples", // Optional: filter content
"max_tokens": 10000 // Optional: limit response size
}
}
```
Supports various formats:
- `"Container"` - Flutter widget
- `"material.AppBar"` - Library-qualified class
- `"provider"` - pub.dev package
- `"dart:async.Future"` - Dart core library
### 3. `flutter_status` - Health Check (Optional)
Monitor service health and cache statistics.
```json
{
"tool": "flutter_status",
"arguments": {}
}
```
---
### 📦 Legacy Tools (Deprecated but still functional)
The following tools are maintained for backward compatibility but internally use the new simplified tools:
<details>
<summary>View legacy tools</summary>
#### `get_flutter_docs` (Use `flutter_docs` instead)
```json
{
"tool": "get_flutter_docs",
"arguments": {
"class_name": "Container",
"library": "widgets"
}
}
```
#### `get_pub_package_info` (Use `flutter_docs` instead)
```json
{
"tool": "get_pub_package_info",
"arguments": {
"package_name": "provider",
"version": "6.0.5"
}
}
```
#### `search_flutter_docs` (Use `flutter_search` instead)
```json
{
"tool": "search_flutter_docs",
"arguments": {
"query": "material.AppBar"
}
}
```
#### `process_flutter_mentions` (Still functional)
```json
{
"tool": "process_flutter_mentions",
"arguments": {
"text": "I need help with @flutter_mcp riverpod state management"
}
}
```
#### `health_check` (Use `flutter_status` instead)
```json
{
"tool": "health_check",
"arguments": {}
}
```
</details>
## 🎯 Features
- **✨ NEW: Simplified Tools**: Just 2 main tools instead of 5 - following Context7's successful pattern
- **📦 Real-Time Documentation**: Fetches the latest docs for any pub.dev package on-demand
- **🎯 Version-Specific Docs**: Request exact versions, ranges, or use keywords like `latest`/`stable`
- **🚀 Zero Configuration**: Automatically detects packages from your `pubspec.yaml`
- **⚡ Lightning Fast**: Intelligent caching means instant responses after first fetch
- **🔒 100% Private**: Runs locally - your code never leaves your machine
- **🎨 Smart Context**: Provides constructors, methods, examples, and migration guides

## 💡 How It Works
Flutter MCP is a local MCP server (think of it as a "RAG sidecar" for Flutter) built on the battle-tested Python MCP SDK. It enhances your AI with real-time documentation:
```mermaid
graph LR
A[Your Prompt] --> B[AI Assistant]
B --> C{Flutter/Dart Content?}
C -->|Yes| D[Query Flutter MCP]
D --> E[Check Local Cache]
E -->|Hit| F[Return Cached Docs]
E -->|Miss| G[Fetch from pub.dev]
G --> H[Process & Cache]
H --> F
F --> I[Enhanced Context]
I --> J[AI Generates Accurate Code]
C -->|No| J
```
### The Magic Behind the Scenes
1. **MCP Integration**: Your AI assistant automatically detects when you're asking about Flutter/Dart packages
2. **Smart Detection**: No special syntax required - just mention package names naturally
3. **Lightning Cache**: First request fetches from pub.dev (1-2 seconds), subsequent requests are instant
4. **Context Injection**: Documentation is seamlessly added to your AI's knowledge before it responds
5. **Privacy First**: Everything runs locally - your code and queries never leave your machine
### Performance Notes
- ⚡ **First Query**: 1-2 seconds (fetching from pub.dev)
- 🚀 **Cached Queries**: <50ms (from local SQLite cache)
- 💾 **Cache Duration**: 24 hours for API docs, 12 hours for packages
- 🧹 **Auto-Cleanup**: Expired entries cleaned on access
### Error Handling
If documentation isn't available or a fetch fails, Flutter MCP gracefully informs your AI, preventing it from generating incorrect or hallucinated code based on missing information. Your AI will let you know it couldn't find the docs rather than guessing.
## 📊 What Gets Indexed
When you request a package, Flutter MCP extracts:
- ✅ **API Documentation**: Classes, methods, properties with full signatures
- ✅ **Constructors**: All parameters, named arguments, defaults
- ✅ **Code Examples**: From official docs and README files
- ✅ **Migration Guides**: Breaking changes and upgrade paths
- ✅ **Package Metadata**: Dependencies, platform support, versions
## 🛠️ Advanced Usage
<details>
<summary><strong>Debug Commands</strong></summary>
```bash
# Run with debug logging
DEBUG=true npx flutter-mcp
# Check server status and cache info
flutter-mcp-server --help
```
Note: Cache is automatically managed by the server. Cached documentation expires after 24 hours (API docs) or 12 hours (packages).
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>Docker Deployment</strong></summary>
For production or team use:
```bash
# Run the server (Docker image coming soon)
# docker run -d -p 8000:8000 --name flutter-mcp ghcr.io/adamsmaka/flutter-mcp:latest
# Check logs
docker logs -f flutter-mcp
```
</details>
## 🛠️ Troubleshooting
<details>
<summary><strong>Error: spawn flutter-mcp ENOENT</strong></summary>
This error means the system cannot find the `flutter-mcp` command. Solutions:
1. **Use npx (recommended):**
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["flutter-mcp"]
}
}
}
```
2. **Install globally first:**
```bash
npm install -g flutter-mcp
# Then use:
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-docs": {
"command": "flutter-mcp"
}
}
}
```
3. **Check Node.js installation:**
```bash
node --version # Should be 16+
npm --version # Should be installed
```
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>MCP server failed to start</strong></summary>
1. Check if Node.js 16+ is installed: `node --version`
2. Try running manually to see errors: `npx flutter-mcp`
3. The npm package will auto-install Python dependencies on first run
4. Check if Python 3.8+ is available: `python3 --version`
5. View detailed logs: `DEBUG=true npx flutter-mcp`
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>Documentation not found errors</strong></summary>
- Some very new packages might not have documentation yet
- Private packages are not supported
- Try using the package name exactly as it appears on pub.dev
</details>
<details>
<summary><strong>Cannot connect from MCP client</strong></summary>
Different MCP clients require different transport protocols:
1. **Claude Desktop**: Uses STDIO transport (default)
- No port/URL needed
- Just use: `npx flutter-mcp`
2. **MCP SuperAssistant**: Requires HTTP transport
- Start with: `npx flutter-mcp --transport http --port 8000`
- Connect to: `http://localhost:8000`
3. **Custom clients**: May need SSE transport
- Start with: `npx flutter-mcp --transport sse --port 8080`
- SSE endpoint: `http://localhost:8080/sse`
If connection fails:
- Verify the correct transport mode for your client
- Check if the port is already in use
- Try binding to all interfaces: `--host 0.0.0.0`
- Ensure Node.js and npm are properly installed
</details>

# CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
## Project Overview
This is a Flutter/Dart documentation MCP (Model Context Protocol) server project designed to provide AI assistants with seamless access to Flutter and Dart documentation. Following Context7's proven approach, the project uses on-demand web scraping with Redis caching to ensure users always get the most current documentation while maintaining fast response times.
## Key Architecture Components
1. **MCP Server**: FastMCP server with on-demand documentation fetching
2. **Redis Caching**: Fast in-memory cache for processed documentation
3. **Web Scraping**: Respectful fetching from api.flutter.dev and api.dart.dev
4. **Pub.dev API**: Official API for package documentation
5. **Processing Pipeline**: Parse → Enrich → Clean → Cache (Context7-style)
6. **Rate Limiting**: 2 requests/second to respect server resources
## Development Commands
```bash
# Project setup (using uv package manager)
uv init mcp-server-flutter-docs
cd mcp-server-flutter-docs
uv add "mcp[cli]" httpx redis beautifulsoup4 structlog
# Start Redis (required for caching)
redis-server # In a separate terminal
# Development server with MCP Inspector
mcp dev server.py
# Run the server
uv run server.py
# Alternative with traditional Python
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
pip install "mcp[cli]" httpx redis beautifulsoup4 structlog
python server.py
```
## Core Implementation Guidelines
1. **On-Demand Fetching**: Fetch documentation only when requested, like Context7
2. **Redis Caching**: Cache processed docs with appropriate TTLs (24h for APIs, 12h for packages)
3. **Smart URL Resolution**: Pattern matching to resolve queries to documentation URLs
4. **Rate Limiting**: RateLimiter class ensuring 2 requests/second max
5. **Error Handling**: Graceful fallbacks when documentation isn't found
6. **User Agent**: Always identify as "Flutter-MCP-Docs/1.0" with GitHub URL
## Transport and Distribution
- **Primary Transport**: STDIO for local Claude Desktop integration
- **Configuration Path**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
- **Distribution Size**: <10MB lightweight package
- **Dependencies**: Redis required (local or external service)
- **Distribution Methods**: PyPI package, npm package, Docker image
- **Versioning**: Semantic versioning (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH)
## Implementation Timeline
1. **MVP (4 hours)**: Basic server with Flutter API docs
2. **Week 1**: Add pub.dev support, search functionality
3. **Week 2**: Polish, documentation, and launch
4. **Future**: Stack Overflow, cookbook, version-specific docs
```

## 📋 Before You Submit
### 🎨 Code Style Guidelines
We use Python's standard style guidelines with a few preferences:
- **Black** for code formatting (line length: 88)
- **isort** for import sorting
- **Type hints** for all public functions
- **Docstrings** for all classes and public methods
Run the formatters before committing:
```bash
# Format code
black src/ tests/
# Sort imports
isort src/ tests/
# Check types
mypy src/
# Run linter
ruff check src/ tests/
```
### 🧪 Testing Guidelines
All code changes should include tests:
```bash
# Run all tests
pytest
# Run with coverage
pytest --cov=flutter_mcp
# Run specific test file
pytest tests/test_server.py
# Run tests in watch mode
pytest-watch
```
We aim for at least 80% test coverage. Write tests that:
- Cover both happy paths and edge cases
- Are isolated and don't depend on external services
- Use mocks for Redis and external API calls
- Have descriptive names that explain what they test

# Quick Fix for MCP SuperAssistant Users
## For Users Who Already Installed from Source
1. **Pull the latest changes**:
```bash
cd flutter-mcp # or wherever you cloned it
git pull
```
2. **Reinstall with new features**:
```bash
pip install -e .
```
3. **Start with HTTP transport**:
```bash
flutter-mcp start --transport http --port 8000
```
4. **Configure MCP SuperAssistant**:
- URL: `http://localhost:8000`
- Type: HTTP MCP Server
That's it! The HTTP transport support is now available.
## Alternative: Direct GitHub Install
If you haven't cloned the repo:
```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/flutter-mcp/flutter-mcp.git
flutter-mcp start --transport http --port 8000
```
## Troubleshooting
If `flutter-mcp` command not found:
```bash
python -m flutter_mcp.cli start --transport http --port 8000
```
Or from the source directory:
```bash
cd src
python -m flutter_mcp start --transport http --port 8000
```
```

# Flutter MCP Server Development Guide
## Quick Start
1. **Install Redis** (required for caching):
```bash
# macOS
brew install redis && brew services start redis
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install redis-server
# Docker (alternative)
docker run -d -p 6379:6379 --name flutter-mcp-redis redis:alpine
```
2. **Run the test script**:
```bash
./test-server.sh
```
This will:
- Check if Redis is running
- Start the MCP Inspector
- Open a web interface at http://localhost:5173
3. **Test the tools** in MCP Inspector:
**Get Flutter documentation:**
```json
{
"class_name": "Container",
"library": "widgets"
}
```
**Search Flutter docs:**
```json
{
"query": "material.AppBar"
}
```
**Get pub.dev package info:**
```json
{
"package_name": "provider"
}
```
## Development Commands
```bash
# Install dependencies
uv sync
# Run server directly
uv run server.py
# Run with MCP Inspector (recommended)
uv run mcp dev server.py
# Run without uv
python server.py
```
## Testing with Claude Desktop
1. Add to Claude Desktop config:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-mcp": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["--directory", "/path/to/flutter-docs-mcp", "run", "server.py"]
}
}
}
```
2. Restart Claude Desktop
3. Test with queries like:
- "How do I use the Container widget in Flutter?"
- "Show me the documentation for material.Scaffold"
- "What's the latest version of the provider package?"
## Architecture
- **FastMCP**: Handles MCP protocol and tool registration
- **Redis**: Caches processed documentation (24h for APIs, 12h for packages)
- **Rate Limiter**: Ensures respectful scraping (2 requests/second)
- **HTML Parser**: Converts Flutter docs to clean Markdown
- **Structured Logging**: Track performance and debug issues
## Common Issues
1. **Redis not running**: Server works but responses are slower
2. **Rate limiting**: First requests take 1-2 seconds
3. **404 errors**: Check class name and library spelling
## Next Steps
- [ ] Add pub.dev README parsing
- [ ] Implement @flutter_mcp activation
- [ ] Add Flutter cookbook integration
- [ ] Support version-specific docs
```

/docs/planning/ingestion-strategy.md:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
```markdown
# Flutter MCP Ingestion Strategy
## Content Extraction Priorities
When we say we "support" a Flutter/Dart package, we extract and process the following content in priority order:
### 1. Essential Content (MVP)
- **Doc Comments (`///`)**: Primary source of API documentation
- **Class/Method Signatures**: Full signatures with parameter types and return values
- **Constructor Parameters**: Named parameters, required vs optional, default values
- **README.md**: Package overview, getting started, basic examples
- **pubspec.yaml**: Dependencies, Flutter/Dart SDK constraints
### 2. High-Value Content (Week 1)
- **Example Directory**: Complete runnable examples showing real usage
- **CHANGELOG.md**: Recent version changes, breaking changes, migration guides
- **Type Definitions**: Enums, typedefs, extension methods
- **Export Statements**: Understanding the public API surface
### 3. Context-Enhancing Content (Week 2+)
- **Test Files**: Understanding expected behavior and edge cases
- **Issue Templates**: Common problems and their solutions
- **Migration Guides**: Version-specific upgrade instructions
- **Platform-Specific Code**: iOS/Android/Web specific implementations
### What We DON'T Extract
- **Full Method Bodies**: Too much noise, not helpful for LLM context
- **Private Implementation Details**: Focus on public API only
- **Generated Code**: Skip `.g.dart`, `.freezed.dart` files
- **Build Configuration**: Detailed build settings aren't useful for API questions
## Semantic Chunking Strategy
Instead of naive text splitting, we chunk semantically:
```
CHUNK 1: package:provider, version:6.1.1, type:class
# ChangeNotifierProvider<T>
A widget that creates a ChangeNotifier and automatically disposes it.
Constructor: ChangeNotifierProvider({required Create<T> create, bool? lazy, Widget? child})
...
CHUNK 2: package:provider, version:6.1.1, type:method, class:ChangeNotifierProvider
# static T of<T>(BuildContext context, {bool listen = true})
Obtains the nearest Provider<T> up its widget tree and returns its value.
...
```
## Metadata Enrichment
Each chunk includes:
- Package name and version
- Source file path
- Content type (class/method/example/changelog)
- Null safety status
- Platform compatibility
- Last updated timestamp
This approach ensures high-quality, relevant context for LLMs while keeping storage and processing costs manageable.
```

# Flutter MCP Project Summary
## Vision
Create the Context7 of Flutter - an MCP server that gives AI assistants real-time access to Flutter/Dart documentation, positioning it as the essential tool for Flutter developers using Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
## Key Innovation: On-Demand Package Support
Instead of pre-indexing 35,000+ packages, we use an on-demand model:
- User requests `@flutter_mcp provider`
- System fetches, processes, and caches package docs in ~30 seconds
- Future requests are served instantly from cache
## Technical Architecture
- **Core**: Python FastMCP with Redis caching
- **Fetching**: On-demand from api.flutter.dev, pub.dev API
- **Processing**: HTML → Clean Markdown with semantic chunking
- **Activation**: `@flutter_mcp package_name` in prompts
## Marketing Strategy
### Positioning
"The first AI companion that supports ANY pub.dev package on-demand"
### Key Messages
1. **End the State Management Wars** - Impartial expert on all approaches
2. **Beyond the README** - Full source analysis, not just documentation
3. **Always Current** - Real-time fetching, never outdated
### Launch Plan
- **Platform**: r/FlutterDev "Show-off Saturday"
- **Demo**: LLM failing → add @flutter_mcp → perfect answer
- **Engagement**: Live package request fulfillment during launch
- **Influencers**: Reach out to top Flutter YouTubers
### Viral Tactics
- Developer testimonials with specific problems solved
- "Powered by @flutter_mcp" badges
- Community-generated before/after demos
- Flutter package maintainer partnerships
## Success Metrics
- 1,000+ GitHub stars in first month
- 100+ packages indexed in first week
- 50%+ cache hit rate after first month
- 10+ developer testimonials
- Coverage in Flutter Weekly
## Timeline
- **MVP (4 hours)**: Basic server with Flutter API docs
- **Week 1**: Add pub.dev support, search, polish
- **Week 2**: Launch preparation and marketing push
- **Launch Week**: Coordinated multi-platform release
## Files Created
1. `project-tasks.csv` - 60 detailed tasks with priorities
2. `ingestion-strategy.md` - What content to extract from packages
3. `context7-marketing-analysis.md` - Marketing tactics analysis
The project is designed to solve a real problem (outdated AI knowledge of Flutter) with a simple solution (@flutter_mcp activation) that can be built quickly and marketed effectively to the Flutter community.

# Flutter MCP vs Context7: Installation Simplicity Achieved! 🎉
## Installation Comparison
### Context7
```bash
npx -y @upstash/context7-mcp
```
### Flutter MCP (After Improvements)
```bash
pip install flutter-mcp-server
flutter-mcp start
```
Or even simpler with executables:
```bash
# Download and run - no Python needed!
curl -L https://github.com/flutter-mcp/releases/latest/flutter-mcp-macos -o flutter-mcp
chmod +x flutter-mcp
./flutter-mcp
```
## What We Changed
### Phase 1: Removed External Dependencies ✅
- **Before**: Required Python + Redis server
- **After**: Just Python (SQLite built-in)
- **Impact**: 50% reduction in setup complexity
### Phase 2: Single Executable Distribution ✅
- **Before**: pip install + dependencies
- **After**: Download one file and run
- **Impact**: Zero dependencies for end users
## Key Improvements Made
1. **Replaced Redis with SQLite**
- No external services to install/manage
- Automatic cache directory creation
- Platform-aware storage locations
- Same performance for single-user tool
2. **Added PyInstaller Packaging**
- Creates standalone executables
- Bundles Python runtime
- Works on Windows, macOS, Linux
- ~30MB download vs multi-step install
3. **Simplified Configuration**
- Removed all Redis configuration options
- Works with zero config out of the box
- Optional cache directory override only
4. **Multiple Distribution Options**
- PyPI: `pip install flutter-mcp-server`
- Docker: `docker run ghcr.io/flutter-mcp/flutter-mcp`
- Executable: Download and run
- Source: Clone and develop
## Performance Impact
- **First query**: Same (1-2 seconds to fetch)
- **Cached queries**: <50ms (SQLite nearly as fast as Redis)
- **Startup time**: PyInstaller adds ~1 second (acceptable)
- **Memory usage**: Slightly lower without Redis
## User Experience Wins
1. **Zero Configuration Required**
- No Redis URLs
- No service management
- No port conflicts
2. **Works Everywhere**
- macOS, Windows, Linux
- No admin rights needed
- Portable executables
3. **Graceful Degradation**
- Cache automatically created
- Works offline with cache
- Clear error messages
## Conclusion
Flutter MCP now matches Context7's installation simplicity while maintaining all functionality. Users can choose their preferred installation method:
- **Developers**: `pip install` for easy updates
- **Non-technical users**: Download executable
- **Teams**: Docker for consistency
- **Contributors**: Clone and develop
The key insight from Context7: **Hide complexity, not functionality**. By replacing Redis with SQLite and adding executable distribution, we achieved the same "it just works" experience! 🚀

# MCP Client Configurations
This document provides configuration examples for various MCP clients to connect to Flutter MCP Server.
## Transport Modes Overview
Flutter MCP Server supports three transport modes:
- **STDIO** (default): Standard input/output communication
- **HTTP**: REST-like HTTP transport
- **SSE**: Server-Sent Events for streaming
## Claude Desktop
**Transport**: STDIO
Edit `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-mcp": {
"command": "flutter-mcp",
"args": ["start"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
```
Or using npx:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@flutter-mcp/server", "start"],
"env": {}
}
}
}
```
## MCP SuperAssistant
**Transport**: HTTP
1. Start the server:
```bash
flutter-mcp start --transport http --port 8000
```
2. In MCP SuperAssistant:
- Click "Add Server"
- Name: `Flutter MCP`
- URL: `http://localhost:8000`
- Type: `HTTP MCP Server`
## Claude Code (claude.ai/code)
**Transport**: STDIO
### Global Configuration
Install globally and Claude Code will auto-detect:
```bash
pip install flutter-mcp-server
```
### Per-Project Configuration
Create `.mcp.json` in your project root:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/flutter-mcp/venv/bin/flutter-mcp",
"args": ["start"]
}
}
}
```
## VS Code + Continue
**Transport**: STDIO
In `.continuerc.json`:
```json
{
"models": [
{
"provider": "claude",
"mcp_servers": {
"flutter-mcp": {
"command": "flutter-mcp",
"args": ["start"]
}
}
}
]
}
```
## Custom HTTP Client
**Transport**: HTTP
```python
import httpx
# Start server: flutter-mcp start --transport http --port 8000
client = httpx.Client(base_url="http://localhost:8000")
# Make MCP requests
response = client.post("/mcp/v1/tools/list")
tools = response.json()
# Call a tool
response = client.post("/mcp/v1/tools/call", json={
"name": "get_flutter_docs",
"arguments": {
"query": "StatefulWidget"
}
})
```
## Custom SSE Client
**Transport**: SSE
```javascript
// Start server: flutter-mcp start --transport sse --port 8080
const eventSource = new EventSource('http://localhost:8080/sse');
eventSource.onmessage = (event) => {
const data = JSON.parse(event.data);
console.log('Received:', data);
};
// Send requests via POST to the same server
fetch('http://localhost:8080/mcp/v1/tools/list', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' }
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(console.log);
```
## Docker Configurations
### Claude Desktop with Docker
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"flutter-mcp": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run", "-i", "--rm",
"ghcr.io/flutter-mcp/flutter-mcp:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
### HTTP Server with Docker
```bash
# Run with HTTP transport exposed
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/flutter-mcp/flutter-mcp:latest \
flutter-mcp start --transport http --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
```
## Environment Variables
All transport modes support these environment variables:
```bash
# Cache directory
export CACHE_DIR=/path/to/cache
# Debug logging
export DEBUG=1
# Transport settings (when not using CLI args)
export MCP_TRANSPORT=http
export MCP_PORT=8000
export MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0
```
## Troubleshooting Connection Issues
### STDIO Transport
- Ensure the command path is correct
- Check Python is installed: `python3 --version`
- Verify installation: `flutter-mcp --version`
### HTTP/SSE Transport
- Check port availability: `lsof -i :8000`
- Try different port: `--port 8080`
- Bind to all interfaces: `--host 0.0.0.0`
- Check firewall settings
### Common Issues
1. **"Connection refused"**
- Server not running
- Wrong port
- Firewall blocking connection
2. **"Command not found"**
- Package not installed
- Wrong path in configuration
- Virtual environment not activated
3. **"Transport mismatch"**
- Client expects different transport
- Check client documentation
- Use correct transport flag
## Testing Connection
### Test STDIO
```bash
echo '{"method": "mcp/v1/tools/list"}' | flutter-mcp start
```
### Test HTTP
```bash
# Start server
flutter-mcp start --transport http --port 8000
# Test with curl
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/mcp/v1/tools/list
```
### Test SSE
```bash
# Start server
flutter-mcp start --transport sse --port 8080
# Test with curl
curl http://localhost:8080/sse
```
```

# Token Management Implementation Plan
## Overview
This document outlines the implementation of token management for Flutter MCP, inspired by Context7's simple approach but adapted for our client-side architecture.
## Goals
1. **Simple API**: Add optional `tokens` parameter to all documentation tools
2. **Smart Truncation**: Preserve most important content when limits are reached
3. **Performance**: Fast token counting without impacting response times
4. **Transparency**: Clear indication when content is truncated
5. **Context7-like UX**: Sensible defaults, no required parameters
## Implementation Phases
### Phase 1: Basic Token Management (Status: In Progress)
- [ ] Add `tokens` parameter to all documentation tools
- [ ] Implement basic token counting (word-based approximation)
- [ ] Simple truncation at section boundaries
- [ ] Update response format with token metadata
### Phase 2: Smart Truncation (Status: Pending)
- [ ] Create priority-based content classification
- [ ] Implement Flutter-aware section detection
- [ ] Add intelligent truncation algorithm
- [ ] Preserve markdown formatting during truncation
### Phase 3: Cache Integration (Status: Pending)
- [ ] Update cache schema to store token counts
- [ ] Modify cache read/write operations
- [ ] Ensure backward compatibility with existing cache
### Phase 4: Testing & Documentation (Status: Pending)
- [ ] Unit tests for token counting
- [ ] Integration tests for truncation
- [ ] Update API documentation
- [ ] Add usage examples
## Technical Design
### Token Counting Strategy
**Approximation Method** (Default):
```python
def approximate_tokens(text: str) -> int:
"""Fast token approximation: ~1.3 tokens per word"""
return int(len(text.split()) * 1.3)
```
**Accurate Counting** (Optional):
- Use tiktoken for GPT models
- Lazy-loaded to avoid startup overhead
- Configurable via environment variable
### Default Token Limits
| Tool | Default | Minimum | Rationale |
|------|---------|---------|-----------|
| get_flutter_docs | 8,000 | 1,000 | Single class documentation |
| search_flutter_docs | 5,000 | 1,000 | Multiple search results |
| get_pub_package_info | 6,000 | 1,000 | Package info + README |
| process_flutter_mentions | 4,000 | 500 | Per mention |
### Truncation Priority
1. **CRITICAL**: Class description, constructor signatures
2. **HIGH**: Common methods (build, setState), essential properties
3. **MEDIUM**: Secondary methods, code examples
4. **LOW**: Inherited members, see also sections
5. **MINIMAL**: Related classes, external links
### Response Format
```json
{
"content": "# Widget Name\n...",
"source": "live|cache",
"truncated": true,
"token_count": 2000,
"original_tokens": 5234,
"sections_included": ["description", "constructors"],
"sections_truncated": ["methods", "examples"],
"truncation_note": "Documentation limited to 2000 tokens."
}
```
## Implementation Progress
### ✅ Completed
- Created implementation plan document
- Added `tokens` parameter to all documentation tools
- Implemented `TokenManager` class with approximation and accurate counting
- Created `DocumentTruncator` class with section detection
- Updated tool signatures with validation
- Integrated token management into server processing pipeline
- Updated cache to store and retrieve token counts
- Added schema migration for existing cache databases
- Updated response format to include token metadata
- Created comprehensive test suite
- Added usage examples and demo script
### 🎉 All phases complete!
## Implementation Summary
### What Was Built
1. **TokenManager** (`src/flutter_mcp/token_manager.py`)
- Fast word-based approximation (default)
- Optional accurate counting with tiktoken
- Environment variable configuration
- ~1.3 tokens per word ratio
2. **DocumentTruncator** (`src/flutter_mcp/truncation.py`)
- Smart section detection for Flutter docs
- Priority-based content preservation
- Maintains markdown formatting
- Graceful degradation for edge cases
3. **Server Integration**
- All tools now accept optional `tokens` parameter
- Automatic truncation when limits exceeded
- Token metadata in all responses
- Transparent to existing users (backward compatible)
4. **Cache Enhancement**
- Stores token counts with content
- Avoids re-counting for cached docs
- Schema migration for existing databases
- Statistics tracking for cached tokens
5. **Testing & Documentation**
- Comprehensive test suite
- Interactive demo script
- Usage examples
### Key Features
- **Simple like Context7**: Optional parameter, sensible defaults
- **Fast**: Approximation takes <1ms for typical docs
- **Smart**: Preserves most important content when truncating
- **Transparent**: Users see token counts and truncation status
- **Cached**: Token counts stored to avoid recalculation
### Usage
```python
# Default usage - no change needed
docs = await get_flutter_docs("Container")
# With token limit
docs = await get_flutter_docs("Container", tokens=2000)
# Response includes token info
{
"content": "...",
"token_count": 1998,
"truncated": true,
"truncation_note": "Documentation limited to 2000 tokens."
}
```
## Notes
- Using word-based approximation for performance (1.3 tokens/word)
- Optional tiktoken integration for accuracy
- Cache stores both content and token count
- Backward compatible with existing cache entries

### Initial Setup - Three Main MCP Servers
1. **Firebase MCP** (Account-wide access)
- Official Firebase CLI MCP server
- Access to all Firebase projects
- No `--dir` flag for unscoped access
- Authentication via `firebase login`
2. **Supabase MCP** (Account-wide access)
- Uses Personal Access Token (NOT project API keys)
- Token from Account Settings → Access Tokens
- `--read-only` flag recommended for safety
- Access to all Supabase projects without `--project-ref`
3. **ZEN MCP Server**
- Docker-based multi-AI orchestration
- Connects Claude with Gemini, O3, GPT-4o
- Enables AI-to-AI conversations
- Already running as Docker container
### Configuration Files
**Claude Desktop** (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"firebase-all": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "firebase-tools@latest", "experimental:mcp"]
},
"supabase-all": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@supabase/mcp-server-supabase@latest",
"--read-only"
],
"env": {
"SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN": "sbp_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
}
},
"zen": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"exec",
"-i",
"zen-mcp-server",
"python",
"server.py"
]
}
}
}
```
**Claude Code** (stored in `~/.claude.json`):
```bash
# Add globally with user scope
claude mcp add firebase-global -s user -- npx -y firebase-tools@latest experimental:mcp
claude mcp add supabase-global -s user -e SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_token -- npx -y @supabase/mcp-server-supabase@latest --read-only
claude mcp add zen -s user -- docker exec -i zen-mcp-server python server.py
```
## Context7 and Deepwiki Research
### Context7 (by Upstash)
- **Purpose**: Real-time library documentation
- **Problem Solved**: Outdated API information in LLMs
- **Coverage**: 50+ JavaScript/Python libraries
- **Key Feature**: Dynamic documentation fetching
- **Cost**: Completely FREE, no API keys needed
- **Usage**: Add "use context7" to prompts
- **Architecture**: Local Node.js execution
### Deepwiki (by Cognition Labs)
- **Purpose**: GitHub repository understanding
- **Problem Solved**: Quick codebase comprehension
- **Coverage**: 50,000+ indexed repositories
- **Key Feature**: AI-analyzed repository documentation
- **Cost**: Free for public repos
- **Architecture**: Remote SSE server
### Why They Don't Work for Flutter
- Context7: Only supports JavaScript/Python libraries
- Deepwiki: Works for Flutter repos but doesn't understand Dart/Flutter APIs specifically
## Flutter MCP Server Project Plan
### Vision
Create a Context7-like MCP server specifically for Flutter/Dart ecosystem that provides:
- Real-time Flutter/Dart API documentation
- Pub.dev package documentation on-demand
- Flutter cookbook and samples
- Stack Overflow Flutter solutions
### Technical Decisions
1. **Inspiration**: Context7's approach (real-time docs > static knowledge)
2. **Language**: Python (easier for Claude Code to write)
3. **Architecture**: On-demand fetching (better for marketing "supports ALL pub.dev packages")
4. **Distribution**: Public GitHub/npm package
### Data Sources to Integrate
- **Official APIs**: api.flutter.dev, api.dart.dev
- **Package Registry**: pub.dev (on-demand fetching)
- **Examples**: Flutter cookbook, official samples
- **Community**: Stack Overflow Flutter tags
### MVP Scope
- Start with official Flutter/Dart API documentation only
- Estimated time: 2-4 hours with Claude Code
- Focus on working prototype first
### Marketing Strategy
- **Reddit Pitch**: "MCP server that gives Claude access to ALL pub.dev packages"
- **Key Differentiator**: Always up-to-date Flutter/Dart documentation
- **Target Audience**: Flutter developers using Claude/Cursor/VS Code
### Technical Requirements
1. MCP protocol implementation in Python
2. Web scraping/API integration for documentation sources
3. Caching mechanism for performance
4. Simple installation via npx/pip
### Development Approach
1. Use Claude Code to build the server
2. Start with minimal viable version
3. Test with personal projects
4. Expand to more sources
5. Release to community
## Next Steps
1. **Get MCP Documentation**: Need current MCP server development guide
2. **Create Project Structure**: Basic Python MCP server template
3. **MVP Features**:
- Connect to api.flutter.dev
- Parse and return documentation
- Handle basic queries
4. **Test & Iterate**: Use with Claude Desktop/Code
5. **Expand**: Add pub.dev, cookbook, etc.
6. **Release**: GitHub + announcement on r/FlutterDev
## Resources Needed
- Current MCP server development documentation
- Python MCP SDK examples
- Flutter/Dart API endpoints
- Pub.dev API documentation
- Testing environment setup guide
## Potential Challenges
1. **API Rate Limits**: Need caching strategy
2. **Documentation Parsing**: Flutter docs structure complexity
3. **Performance**: Fast response times for good UX
4. **Maintenance**: Keeping up with Flutter updates
## Success Metrics
- Working MVP in 4 hours
- <1 second response time
- Covers 100% of official Flutter/Dart APIs
- Positive reception on Reddit/Twitter
- 100+ GitHub stars in first month

/docs/VERSION_SPECIFICATION.md:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
```markdown
# Version Specification System
The Flutter MCP server now supports advanced version specifications for pub.dev packages, allowing AI assistants to fetch documentation for specific package versions based on various constraint formats.
## Overview
When referencing packages with `@flutter_mcp`, you can now specify version constraints similar to how they work in `pubspec.yaml` files. This ensures AI assistants get documentation that matches the exact version requirements of a project.
## Supported Formats
### 1. Exact Versions
Specify an exact version to fetch documentation for that specific release:
```
@flutter_mcp riverpod:2.5.1
@flutter_mcp provider:6.0.5
@flutter_mcp dio:5.3.2
```
### 2. Caret Syntax (^)
The caret syntax allows compatible updates according to semantic versioning:
```
@flutter_mcp provider:^6.0.0 # Allows >=6.0.0 <7.0.0
@flutter_mcp bloc:^8.1.0 # Allows >=8.1.0 <9.0.0
@flutter_mcp get:^4.6.5 # Allows >=4.6.5 <5.0.0
```
For packages with 0.x.x versions, the caret is more restrictive:
- `^0.2.3` allows `>=0.2.3 <0.3.0`
- `^0.0.3` allows `>=0.0.3 <0.0.4`
### 3. Version Ranges
Specify explicit version ranges using comparison operators:
```
@flutter_mcp dio:>=5.0.0 <6.0.0 # Any 5.x version
@flutter_mcp http:>0.13.0 <=1.0.0 # Greater than 0.13.0, up to and including 1.0.0
@flutter_mcp provider:>=6.0.0 # 6.0.0 or higher
@flutter_mcp bloc:<9.0.0 # Any version below 9.0.0
```
### 4. Special Keywords
Use keywords to fetch specific version types:
```
@flutter_mcp provider:latest # Absolute latest version (including pre-releases)
@flutter_mcp riverpod:stable # Latest stable version (no pre-releases)
@flutter_mcp bloc:dev # Latest dev version
@flutter_mcp get:beta # Latest beta version
@flutter_mcp dio:alpha # Latest alpha version
```
### 5. No Version (Current Behavior)
When no version is specified, the system fetches the latest stable version:
```
@flutter_mcp provider # Latest stable version
@flutter_mcp riverpod # Latest stable version
```
## Examples in Context
### Example 1: Upgrading Dependencies
```
I'm upgrading from @flutter_mcp provider:^5.0.0 to @flutter_mcp provider:^6.0.0.
What are the breaking changes I need to be aware of?
```
### Example 2: Testing Pre-release Features
```
I want to try the new features in @flutter_mcp riverpod:beta.
Can you show me what's new compared to @flutter_mcp riverpod:stable?
```
### Example 3: Version Compatibility
```
My project uses @flutter_mcp dio:>=5.0.0 <6.0.0 for networking.
Is this compatible with @flutter_mcp retrofit:^4.0.0?
```
### Example 4: Legacy Code
```
I'm maintaining legacy code that uses @flutter_mcp provider:5.0.0.
Can you help me understand the API from that specific version?
```
## How It Works
### Version Resolution
1. **Parsing**: The system parses the version specification to understand the constraint type
2. **Resolution**: For constraints (not exact versions), the system queries pub.dev to find all available versions
3. **Selection**: The highest version that satisfies the constraint is selected
4. **Fetching**: Documentation for the selected version is retrieved and cached
### Caching
Version-specific documentation is cached separately:
- Cache key includes the package name and resolved version
- Different version constraints that resolve to the same version share the cache
- Cache duration: 12 hours for package documentation
### Error Handling
The system provides helpful error messages:
- If a version doesn't exist: Lists available versions
- If constraint can't be resolved: Explains why
- If package doesn't exist: Standard package not found error
## Implementation Details
### Version Parser
The `VersionParser` class handles parsing of version specifications:
- Regex patterns for different constraint formats
- Semantic version comparison logic
- Support for pre-release versions
### Version Resolver
The `VersionResolver` class interfaces with pub.dev API:
- Fetches available versions from pub.dev
- Applies constraint logic to find best match
- Handles special keywords (latest, stable, etc.)
### Integration
The version system is fully integrated with:
- `process_flutter_mentions`: Parses mentions with version specs
- `get_pub_package_info`: Fetches version-specific documentation
- Cache system: Version-aware cache keys
## Best Practices
1. **Use Caret for Flexibility**: `^` allows compatible updates
```
@flutter_mcp provider:^6.0.0
```
2. **Exact Versions for Reproducibility**: When you need specific behavior
```
@flutter_mcp riverpod:2.5.1
```
3. **Ranges for Compatibility**: When working with multiple packages
```
@flutter_mcp dio:>=5.0.0 <6.0.0
```
4. **Keywords for Exploration**: Testing new features
```
@flutter_mcp bloc:beta
```
## Limitations
1. **Flutter/Dart Classes**: Version specifications only work with pub.dev packages, not Flutter framework classes
- ✅ `@flutter_mcp provider:^6.0.0`
- ❌ `@flutter_mcp material.AppBar:^3.0.0`
2. **Version Availability**: Only versions published on pub.dev are accessible
3. **Rate Limiting**: Version resolution requires additional API calls, subject to rate limits
## Future Enhancements
Potential future improvements:
1. Flutter SDK version-specific documentation
2. Git commit/branch references for packages
3. Local path references for development
4. Version comparison tools
5. Migration guide generation between versions

# Flutter MCP Server - Error Handling & Resilience
This document describes the comprehensive error handling and resilience features implemented in the Flutter MCP Server.
## Overview
The Flutter MCP Server is designed to be highly resilient and provide a good user experience even when external services are unavailable or experiencing issues. The server implements multiple layers of error handling, retry logic, and graceful degradation.
## Error Handling Features
### 1. Retry Logic with Exponential Backoff
All HTTP requests implement automatic retry with exponential backoff:
- **Max retries**: 3 attempts
- **Base delay**: 1 second
- **Max delay**: 16 seconds
- **Jitter**: Random 0-1 second added to prevent thundering herd
- **Smart retries**: Only retries on network errors and 5xx server errors, not 4xx client errors
```python
@with_retry(max_retries=3)
async def fetch_data():
# Automatic retry on network failures
pass
```
### 2. Comprehensive Error Types
The server categorizes errors for better handling:
- `NetworkError`: Connection failures, timeouts
- `DocumentationNotFoundError`: Resource not found (404)
- `RateLimitError`: Rate limit exceeded (429)
- `CacheError`: Cache operation failures
### 3. User-Friendly Error Responses
All errors return structured responses with:
```json
{
"error": true,
"error_type": "not_found",
"message": "Documentation not found for widgets.NonExistentWidget",
"suggestions": [
"Check if 'NonExistentWidget' is spelled correctly",
"Verify that 'NonExistentWidget' exists in the 'widgets' library",
"Common libraries: widgets, material, cupertino, painting, rendering",
"Try searching with: search_flutter_docs('NonExistentWidget')"
],
"context": {
"class": "NonExistentWidget",
"library": "widgets",
"status_code": 404
},
"timestamp": "2024-01-20T10:30:00Z"
}
```
### 4. Circuit Breaker Pattern
Prevents cascading failures when external services are down:
- **Failure threshold**: 5 consecutive failures
- **Recovery timeout**: 60 seconds
- **States**: CLOSED (normal), OPEN (failing), HALF-OPEN (testing)
```python
flutter_docs_circuit = CircuitBreaker(
failure_threshold=5,
recovery_timeout=60.0
)
```
### 5. Graceful Degradation
The server continues operating even when some components fail:
- **Cache failures**: Continue without caching
- **README fetch failures**: Return package info without README
- **Enrichment failures**: Return search results without full documentation
### 6. Health Monitoring
Comprehensive health check system:
```python
# Health check with timeout protection
async def health_check():
# Tests Flutter docs API
# Tests pub.dev API
# Tests cache functionality
# Returns detailed status for each component
```
### 7. Timeout Protection
All operations have configurable timeouts:
- **Default timeout**: 30 seconds
- **Connection timeout**: 10 seconds
- **Health check timeout**: 10 seconds
### 8. Rate Limiting
Respectful rate limiting for external APIs:
- **Default rate**: 2 requests/second
- **Adjustable during high load**
- **Per-service rate limiters**
## Error Scenarios Handled
### Network Errors
- Connection timeouts
- DNS resolution failures
- Connection refused
- Network unreachable
**User Experience**: Clear message about network issues with retry suggestions
### API Errors
- 404 Not Found: Helpful suggestions for correct names/formats
- 429 Rate Limited: Advises waiting and provides retry timing
- 500-599 Server Errors: Indicates external service issues
- Invalid responses: Handles malformed JSON/HTML
### Input Validation
- Invalid class names
- Invalid package names (must be lowercase with underscores)
- Malformed queries
- Empty inputs
### Cache Errors
- Cache initialization failures: Falls back to no-cache mode
- Cache read/write errors: Logged but don't fail requests
- Corrupted cache entries: Automatic cleanup
## Testing Error Handling
Run the error handling test suite:
```bash
python test_error_handling.py
```
This tests:
1. Invalid Flutter class names
2. Invalid library names
3. Non-existent packages
4. Invalid package name formats
5. Search with no results
6. Mention processing with errors
7. Health check functionality
8. Graceful degradation
## Logging
Structured logging with contextual information:
```python
logger.error(
"http_error",
status_code=404,
url="https://api.flutter.dev/...",
class_name="NonExistentWidget",
library="widgets"
)
```
## Recovery Mechanisms
### Automatic Recovery
1. **Cache clearing**: After 3 consecutive failures
2. **Connection pool reset**: After 5 consecutive failures
3. **Rate limit reduction**: After 7 consecutive failures
### Manual Recovery
- Restart server to reset all circuit breakers
- Clear cache directory to remove corrupted data
- Check logs for specific error patterns
## Best Practices
1. **Always check for errors** in responses:
```python
result = await get_flutter_docs("Widget", "widgets")
if result.get("error"):
# Handle error
```
2. **Use suggestions** provided in error responses
3. **Implement backoff** when seeing rate limit errors
4. **Monitor health endpoint** for service status
## Configuration
Error handling can be configured via environment variables:
```bash
# Retry configuration
MAX_RETRIES=3
BASE_RETRY_DELAY=1.0
MAX_RETRY_DELAY=16.0
# Timeout configuration
DEFAULT_TIMEOUT=30.0
CONNECTION_TIMEOUT=10.0
# Circuit breaker
FAILURE_THRESHOLD=5
RECOVERY_TIMEOUT=60.0
# Rate limiting
REQUESTS_PER_SECOND=2.0
```
## Monitoring
Monitor these metrics for service health:
- Error rates by type
- Circuit breaker state changes
- Cache hit/miss rates
- Response times
- Retry counts
## Future Improvements
- [ ] Implement request queuing during rate limits
- [ ] Add fallback to cached documentation during outages
- [ ] Implement progressive retry delays based on error type
- [ ] Add webhook notifications for circuit breaker state changes
- [ ] Implement request deduplication
```

# Smart Truncation Algorithm for Flutter/Dart Documentation
## Overview
The smart truncation algorithm is designed to intelligently reduce Flutter and Dart documentation to fit within token limits while preserving the most critical information for developers. This algorithm uses a priority-based system to ensure that essential information is retained even under severe token constraints.
## Key Features
### 1. Priority-Based Content Classification
The algorithm classifies documentation content into five priority levels:
- **CRITICAL (1)**: Must always be retained
- Class descriptions
- Constructor signatures
- **HIGH (2)**: Retained whenever possible
- Primary method signatures (build, createState, initState, dispose)
- Common properties (child, children, padding, margin, etc.)
- Constructor descriptions
- **MEDIUM (3)**: Retained if space allows
- Secondary methods
- Less common properties
- First 2 code examples
- **LOW (4)**: First to be removed
- Private methods
- Verbose method descriptions
- Additional code examples (3+)
- **MINIMAL (5)**: Removed first
- Inherited members
- See also sections
- Related classes
### 2. Intelligent Section Parsing
The algorithm parses Flutter documentation into semantic sections:
```python
sections = [
"description", # Class overview
"constructors", # Constructor signatures and docs
"properties", # Widget properties
"methods", # Class methods
"examples" # Code examples
]
```
Each section is further broken down into sub-components with individual priorities.
### 3. Flutter-Aware Prioritization
The algorithm has built-in knowledge of Flutter's widget hierarchy and common patterns:
#### High-Priority Widgets
```python
HIGH_PRIORITY_WIDGETS = {
"Container", "Row", "Column", "Text", "Image", "Scaffold",
"AppBar", "ListView", "GridView", "Stack", "Positioned",
"Center", "Padding", "SizedBox", "Expanded", "Flexible",
# ... and more
}
```
#### High-Priority Methods
```python
HIGH_PRIORITY_METHODS = {
"build", "createState", "initState", "dispose", "setState",
"didChangeDependencies", "didUpdateWidget", "deactivate"
}
```
#### High-Priority Properties
```python
HIGH_PRIORITY_PROPERTIES = {
"child", "children", "width", "height", "color", "padding",
"margin", "alignment", "decoration", "style", "onPressed",
"onTap", "controller", "value", "enabled", "visible"
}
```
### 4. Truncation Strategies
The algorithm supports multiple truncation strategies:
#### Balanced (Default)
Maintains a good mix of all documentation types:
- Keeps description, main constructors, key properties, and primary methods
- Includes 1-2 code examples if space allows
- Best for general-purpose documentation
#### Signatures
Prioritizes method and constructor signatures:
- Maximizes retention of code signatures
- Reduces or removes descriptions
- Ideal when the user needs API reference information
#### Examples
Prioritizes code examples:
- Keeps more code examples than other strategies
- Useful for learning and implementation guidance
#### Minimal
Keeps only the most essential information:
- Class description
- Primary constructor
- build() method for widgets
- child/children properties
### 5. Smart Code Truncation
When truncating code blocks, the algorithm:
- Preserves syntactic validity when possible
- Balances braces and brackets
- Truncates at line boundaries
- Adds ellipsis comments to indicate truncation
Example:
```dart
Container(
width: 200,
height: 200,
child: Column(
children: [
Text('Line 1'),
// ...
],
),
)
```
### 6. Progressive Truncation
The algorithm applies truncation progressively:
1. Calculate total token count
2. If under limit, return unchanged
3. Remove MINIMAL priority content
4. Remove LOW priority content
5. Reduce MEDIUM priority content
6. Trim HIGH priority content (descriptions only)
7. CRITICAL content is never removed
## Usage Examples
### Basic Usage
```python
from flutter_mcp.truncation import truncate_flutter_docs
# Truncate to 4000 tokens with balanced strategy
truncated_doc = truncate_flutter_docs(
content=original_documentation,
class_name="Container",
max_tokens=4000,
strategy="balanced"
)
```
### Advanced Usage with Metadata
```python
from flutter_mcp.truncation import AdaptiveTruncator
truncator = AdaptiveTruncator(max_tokens=2000)
truncated_doc, metadata = truncator.truncate_with_strategy(
doc_content=original_documentation,
class_name="ListView",
library="widgets",
strategy="signatures"
)
print(f"Compression ratio: {metadata['compression_ratio']:.1%}")
print(f"Was truncated: {metadata['was_truncated']}")
```
### Integration with MCP Server
```python
# In the MCP tool
@mcp.tool()
async def get_flutter_docs(
class_name: str,
library: str = "widgets",
max_tokens: int = None # Optional truncation
) -> Dict[str, Any]:
# Fetch documentation...
# Apply smart truncation if requested
if max_tokens:
content = truncate_flutter_docs(
content,
class_name,
max_tokens=max_tokens,
strategy="balanced"
)
```
## Token Limits and Recommendations
| Use Case | Recommended Token Limit | Strategy |
|----------|------------------------|----------|
| Quick reference | 500-1000 | minimal |
| API overview | 2000-4000 | signatures |
| Learning/Tutorial | 4000-8000 | examples |
| Full documentation | 8000+ | balanced |
## Implementation Details
### Token Estimation
The algorithm uses a simple but effective token estimation:
- English text: ~4 characters per token
- Code: ~3 characters per token
This provides a good approximation for planning truncation without requiring actual tokenization.
### Section Preservation
When a section must be truncated:
1. Code sections are truncated at line boundaries
2. Text sections are truncated at sentence boundaries
3. Lists are truncated at item boundaries
4. A truncation notice is always added
### Example Output
Original documentation: 15,000 characters (~3,750 tokens)
Truncated to 1,000 tokens:
```markdown
# Container (Truncated Documentation)
## Description
A convenience widget that combines common painting, positioning, and sizing widgets.
## Constructors
### Container({Key? key, AlignmentGeometry? alignment, ...})
```dart
Container({
Key? key,
this.alignment,
this.padding,
this.color,
this.decoration,
double? width,
double? height,
this.child,
})
```
## Properties
- **child**: The child contained by the container
- **padding**: Empty space to inscribe inside the decoration
- **color**: The color to paint behind the child
- **width**: Container width constraint
- **height**: Container height constraint
## Methods
### build(BuildContext context)
```dart
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
// ... (truncated)
}
```
---
*Note: This documentation has been intelligently truncated to fit within token limits. Some sections may have been removed or shortened.*
```
## Performance Considerations
The truncation algorithm is designed to be efficient:
- O(n) parsing of documentation
- O(n log n) sorting of sections by priority
- O(n) reconstruction of truncated documentation
Typical truncation takes <50ms for large documents.
## Future Enhancements
Potential improvements to the algorithm:
1. **ML-based importance scoring**: Use machine learning to determine section importance based on usage patterns
2. **Context-aware truncation**: Adjust priorities based on the user's query context
3. **Cross-reference preservation**: Maintain links between related classes when truncating
4. **Incremental loading**: Support progressive disclosure of truncated content
5. **Custom priority profiles**: Allow users to define their own priority preferences
## Conclusion
The smart truncation algorithm ensures that Flutter/Dart documentation remains useful even under severe token constraints. By understanding the structure and importance of different documentation sections, it preserves the most critical information while gracefully degrading less essential content.

# Token Counting Analysis for Flutter MCP
## Executive Summary
For the Flutter MCP documentation server, implementing accurate and performant token counting is crucial to ensure responses fit within LLM context windows. This analysis recommends using model-specific tokenizers with intelligent caching for optimal accuracy and performance.
## Recommended Approach
### Primary Strategy: Model-Specific Tokenizers with Caching
Use official tokenizers for each supported model family:
- **OpenAI Models**: `tiktoken` library
- **Claude Models**: `anthropic` library's `count_tokens()` API
- **Gemini Models**: `google-genai` library's `count_tokens()` method
### Implementation Architecture
```python
# utils/token_counter.py
import tiktoken
import anthropic
from google import genai
from google.genai.types import HttpOptions
from typing import Union, Dict, Any
import structlog
logger = structlog.get_logger()
class TokenCounter:
"""Unified token counter with model-specific tokenizer support."""
def __init__(self):
self._tokenizer_cache: Dict[str, Any] = {}
self._anthropic_client = None
self._genai_client = None
def _get_openai_tokenizer(self, model: str):
"""Get or create OpenAI tokenizer."""
if model not in self._tokenizer_cache:
try:
# Try model-specific encoding
self._tokenizer_cache[model] = tiktoken.encoding_for_model(model)
except KeyError:
# Fallback to cl100k_base for newer models
self._tokenizer_cache[model] = tiktoken.get_encoding("cl100k_base")
return self._tokenizer_cache[model]
def _get_anthropic_client(self):
"""Get or create Anthropic client."""
if self._anthropic_client is None:
self._anthropic_client = anthropic.Anthropic()
return self._anthropic_client
def _get_genai_client(self):
"""Get or create Google GenAI client."""
if self._genai_client is None:
self._genai_client = genai.Client(
http_options=HttpOptions(api_version="v1")
)
return self._genai_client
def count_tokens(self, text: str, model: str = "gpt-4") -> int:
"""
Count tokens for the given text and model.
Args:
text: The text to count tokens for
model: The model name (e.g., "gpt-4", "claude-3-opus", "gemini-1.5-pro")
Returns:
Number of tokens
"""
try:
# OpenAI models
if model.startswith(("gpt-", "text-embedding-")):
tokenizer = self._get_openai_tokenizer(model)
return len(tokenizer.encode(text))
# Claude models
elif model.startswith("claude-"):
client = self._get_anthropic_client()
response = client.beta.messages.count_tokens(
model=model,
messages=[{"role": "user", "content": text}]
)
return response.input_tokens
# Gemini models
elif model.startswith("gemini-"):
client = self._get_genai_client()
response = client.models.count_tokens(
model=model,
contents=text
)
return response.total_tokens
# Unknown model - use cl100k_base as fallback
else:
logger.warning(f"Unknown model {model}, using cl100k_base tokenizer")
tokenizer = self._get_openai_tokenizer("cl100k_base")
return len(tokenizer.encode(text))
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Error counting tokens for {model}: {e}")
# Fallback to character-based approximation with safety margin
return int(len(text) / 3.5) # Conservative estimate
# Global instance for reuse
token_counter = TokenCounter()
```
## Performance Optimization Strategies
### 1. Tokenizer Caching
- **Critical**: Cache tokenizer instances to avoid initialization overhead
- OpenAI's `tiktoken` has minimal overhead, but still benefits from caching
- Anthropic and Google clients should be singleton instances
### 2. Batch Processing
When processing multiple documents:
```python
# For tiktoken (OpenAI)
encoding = tiktoken.get_encoding("cl100k_base")
token_counts = [len(tokens) for tokens in encoding.encode_batch(texts)]
# For other providers, implement parallel processing
from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
def batch_count_tokens(texts: List[str], model: str) -> List[int]:
with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=5) as executor:
futures = [executor.submit(token_counter.count_tokens, text, model)
for text in texts]
return [future.result() for future in futures]
```
### 3. Redis Integration for Token Count Caching
```python
async def get_documentation_with_token_count(
self,
query: str,
model: str = "gpt-4"
) -> Tuple[str, int]:
"""Get documentation with pre-calculated token count."""
# Check Redis for cached result with token count
cache_key = f"flutter_doc:{query}:{model}"
cached = await self.redis.get(cache_key)
if cached:
data = json.loads(cached)
return data["content"], data["token_count"]
# Fetch and process documentation
content = await self.fetch_documentation(query)
# Count tokens on final formatted content
token_count = token_counter.count_tokens(content, model)
# Cache with token count
await self.redis.set(
cache_key,
json.dumps({
"content": content,
"token_count": token_count
}),
ex=86400 # 24 hour TTL
)
return content, token_count
```
## Markdown Formatting Considerations
### Count Tokens on Final Output
Always count tokens on the exact string sent to the LLM:
```python
def prepare_response(raw_content: str, max_tokens: int, model: str) -> str:
"""Prepare and truncate response to fit token limit."""
# Apply all formatting transformations
formatted_content = format_markdown(raw_content)
# Count tokens on formatted content
token_count = token_counter.count_tokens(formatted_content, model)
# Truncate if necessary
if token_count > max_tokens:
# Intelligent truncation - keep complete sections
formatted_content = truncate_intelligently(
formatted_content,
max_tokens,
model
)
return formatted_content
```
### Token Impact of Markdown Elements
- **Code blocks**: Very token-intensive (backticks + language + indentation)
- **Links**: Full markdown syntax counts `[text](url)`
- **Headers**: All `#` characters count as tokens
- **Lists**: Bullets and indentation consume tokens
## Approximation Methods (Fallback Only)
When model-specific tokenizers are unavailable:
```python
def approximate_tokens(text: str, model_family: str = "general") -> int:
"""
Approximate token count with model-specific adjustments.
Use only as fallback when proper tokenizers unavailable.
"""
# Base approximations
char_ratio = {
"gpt": 4.0, # GPT models: ~4 chars/token
"claude": 3.8, # Claude: slightly more tokens
"gemini": 4.2, # Gemini: slightly fewer tokens
"general": 3.5 # Conservative default
}
ratio = char_ratio.get(model_family, 3.5)
base_count = len(text) / ratio
# Adjust for code content (more tokens)
code_blocks = text.count("```")
if code_blocks > 0:
base_count *= 1.15
# Safety margin
return int(base_count * 1.2)
```
## Implementation Timeline
### Phase 1: Core Implementation (2 hours)
1. Implement `TokenCounter` class with OpenAI support
2. Add fallback approximation method
3. Integrate with existing response pipeline
### Phase 2: Multi-Model Support (2 hours)
1. Add Anthropic client support
2. Add Google GenAI client support
3. Implement model detection logic
### Phase 3: Optimization (1 hour)
1. Add Redis caching for token counts
2. Implement batch processing
3. Add performance monitoring
## Testing Strategy
```python
# tests/test_token_counter.py
import pytest
from utils.token_counter import token_counter
class TestTokenCounter:
@pytest.mark.parametrize("model,text,expected_range", [
("gpt-4", "Hello, world!", (3, 5)),
("claude-3-opus-20240229", "Hello, world!", (3, 5)),
("gemini-1.5-pro", "Hello, world!", (3, 5)),
])
def test_basic_counting(self, model, text, expected_range):
count = token_counter.count_tokens(text, model)
assert expected_range[0] <= count <= expected_range[1]
def test_markdown_formatting(self):
markdown = "# Header\n```python\nprint('hello')\n```"
count = token_counter.count_tokens(markdown, "gpt-4")
# Markdown should produce more tokens than plain text
plain_count = token_counter.count_tokens("Header print hello", "gpt-4")
assert count > plain_count
def test_fallback_approximation(self):
# Test with unknown model
count = token_counter.count_tokens("Test text", "unknown-model")
assert count > 0
```
## Recommendations
1. **Use Model-Specific Tokenizers**: Accuracy is worth the minimal performance cost
2. **Cache Everything**: Both tokenizer instances and token counts
3. **Count Final Output**: Always count tokens on the exact formatted string
4. **Plan for Growth**: Design the system to easily add new model support
5. **Monitor Performance**: Track token counting time in your metrics
## Conclusion
For the Flutter MCP project, implementing proper token counting with model-specific tokenizers will ensure accurate context window management while maintaining the fast response times required by the Context7-style architecture. The recommended approach balances accuracy, performance, and maintainability while providing graceful fallbacks for edge cases.
