# State Hub

State Hub is the live coordination service for the Custodian ecosystem:
PostgreSQL persistence, FastAPI API, FastMCP server, Observable dashboard,
consistency tooling, and repo/workplan synchronization.

This repository is the standalone home for the service. It was extracted from
the former embedded implementation at:

```text
/home/worsch/the-custodian/state-hub
```

## Extraction State

The extraction workplan `CUST-WP-0043 - State Hub Repo Extraction` is complete.

Current state:

- The implementation has been imported here with subtree history.
- `CUST-WP-0042` has been re-homed into this repository.
- The old embedded tree in `the-custodian` remains only as a pointer.
- This repository is authoritative for State Hub code, docs, tests, dashboard,
  migrations, scripts, policies, and State Hub-local workplans.

## Workplans

New State Hub-local workplans should use the prefix:

```text
STATE-WP-0001
```

Legacy Custodian-hosted State Hub plans, such as `CUST-WP-0042`, may retain
their existing IDs when that preserves State Hub workstream/task continuity.
Do not create duplicate workstreams manually; write the workplan file first,
then run consistency sync.

## Stack

| Layer | Technology | Port |
|-------|-----------|------|
| Database | PostgreSQL 16-alpine (Docker) | `127.0.0.1:5432` |
| API | FastAPI + SQLAlchemy 2.0 async + asyncpg | `127.0.0.1:8000` |
| MCP server | FastMCP SSE | `127.0.0.1:8001` |
| Dashboard | Observable Framework | `127.0.0.1:3000` |
| CLI | `custodian` (Python, uv entry point) | — |

All services bind to `127.0.0.1` only — nothing exposed to the network.

**Production:** the primary State Hub API runs on coulombcore-k3s. Workstation
port `8000` reaches it through the ops-bridge `state-hub-primary` tunnel. See
[`docs/cluster-operating-model.md`](docs/cluster-operating-model.md) for access,
rollback, backups, and pragmatic limitations.

## Setup

### Prerequisites

- Docker Engine
- Python 3.12+ with `uv` (`pip install uv`)
- Node.js 18+ (dashboard only)

### First-time

```bash
cd /home/worsch/state-hub

cp .env.example .env          # edit POSTGRES_PASSWORD
make install                  # uv sync
make db                       # docker compose up postgres
make migrate                  # alembic upgrade head
make seed                     # insert 6 canonical topics
make api                      # db + migrate + uvicorn :8000 (restarts if running)
```

### Dashboard

```bash
make dashboard    # installs dashboard deps if needed, then Observable dev server on :3000
make dashboard-check  # installs deps if needed, then runs Observable build
```

### Start Everything

To start all the infrastructure on separate consoles do:

```bash
make db           # docker compose up postgres
make mcp-http     # start state-hub mcp service
make dashboard    # Observable dev server on :3000
make bridges      # Set up ssh bridges for cross machines access
```


### CLI

```bash
make install-cli              # symlink .venv/bin/custodian → ~/.local/bin
custodian status              # API health + summary totals
custodian register-project    # register cwd as a Custodian project
```

## Database Schema

Repo-anchored coordination spine (STATE-WP-0065):

```
domains (14 market domains: infotech, financials, communication, …)
managed_repos (classification: category, domain, capability_tags, business_stake, …)
└── workplans (repo_id required; topic_id optional legacy tag)
    └── tasks
        └── progress_events
topics (optional cross-repo tag; domain_id → market domain)
decisions (FK: topic_id and/or workplan_id)
```

Each registered repo carries a committed `.repo-classification.yaml` (canon
standard v1.0). Registration and reclassification use
`make register-from-classification`.

### Key enums / vocabularies

| Field | Values |
|------|--------|
| `workplan_status` | `proposed` · `ready` · `active` · `blocked` · `backlog` · `finished` · `archived` |
| `task_status` | `wait` · `todo` · `progress` · `done` · `cancel` |
| `repo category` | `experimental` · `research` · `project` · `tooling` · `product` · `business` |
| `market domain` | 14 fixed slugs — see `the-custodian/canon/standards/repo-classification.allowed.yaml` |

### Governance constraints encoded in schema

- No hard DELETE endpoints — only soft: `archived`, `cancel`, `superseded`
- `progress_events` has no `updated_at` and no DELETE endpoint (append-only per constitution §5)
- `decisions` with financial/legal keywords + `pending` type → auto-set `escalation_note` (§4)

## API

Interactive docs at http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs once the API is running.

### Key endpoint: `/state/summary`

Returns a full snapshot in one call — used by both the MCP server and dashboard:

```json
{
  "generated_at": "...",
  "totals": {
    "topics":      { "active": 6, "paused": 0, "archived": 0, "total": 6 },
    "workstreams": { "ready": 1, "active": 1, "blocked": 0, "finished": 1, "total": 3 },
    "tasks":       { "wait": 0, "todo": 9, "progress": 0, "done": 11, "cancel": 0, "total": 20 },
    "decisions":   { "open": 1, "resolved": 0, "escalated": 0, "total": 1 }
  },
  "topics": [...],             // topics with nested workstream stubs
  "blocking_decisions": [...], // pending decisions only
  "waiting_tasks": [...],
  "recent_progress": [...],    // last 20 events
  "open_workplans": [...],
  "open_workstreams": [...]   // legacy alias of open_workplans until STATE-WP-0069 T06 retires it
}
```

**Caching:** responses are revision-gated — the API compares cheap per-table
`MAX(updated_at)` / `MAX(created_at)` watermarks before rebuilding. Unchanged
data returns the cached snapshot (`X-StateHub-Cache: hit-revision`). When core
data changes, the last good snapshot may be served immediately while a
background refresh runs (`X-StateHub-Cache: stale`). Force a synchronous rebuild
with `?refresh=true` or `Cache-Control: no-cache`. Infrastructure probes should
use `/state/health`, not `/state/summary`.

### Router summary

| Prefix | Operations |
|--------|-----------|
| `/topics` | CRUD (soft-delete: `archived`) |
| `/workplans` | Preferred CRUD surface for repo-backed workplans (soft-delete: `archived`) |
| `/workstreams` | Legacy compatibility CRUD surface; usage is recorded by legacy-meter |
| `/tasks` | CRUD (soft-delete: `cancel`); `PATCH` updates status |
| `/decisions` | CRUD (soft-delete: `superseded`); auto-escalation |
| `/progress` | `GET` list + `POST` append — no DELETE |
| `/legacy-meter` | Register, meter, and review legacy interface usage |
| `/state/summary` | Full snapshot |
| `/state/health` | DB connectivity check |

See `docs/workplan-terminology-transition.md` for the workstream-to-workplan
compatibility policy and retirement criteria.

## MCP Server

Runs as a persistent SSE service on `:8001`, independent of the Claude Code session.
Restart it anytime without restarting Claude Code.

```bash
make mcp-http   # start (or restart) the MCP SSE server on :8001
```

Registered at user scope in `~/.claude.json`:
```json
{ "type": "sse", "url": "http://127.0.0.1:8001/sse" }
```

To re-register from scratch:
```bash
claude mcp remove state-hub -s user 2>/dev/null || true
claude mcp add-json -s user state-hub '{"type":"sse","url":"http://127.0.0.1:8001/sse"}'
```

See `mcp_server/TOOLS.md` for the full tool reference card (30 lines, faster than reading `server.py`).

### Tools at a glance

**Query** (read-only): `get_state_summary` · `get_topic` · `list_blocked_tasks` · `list_pending_decisions` · `get_recent_progress`

**Mutate** (each auto-emits a progress event): `create_task` · `update_task_status` · `record_decision` · `resolve_decision` · `add_progress_event` · `create_workplan` · `update_workplan_status` · `register_repo_from_classification`

**Resources**: `state://summary` · `state://topics` · `state://workplans/{topic_slug}` · `state://decisions/blocking` · `state://tasks/blocked`

Legacy `workstream_*` tool names remain as aliases — see `mcp_server/TOOLS.md`.

---

## `custodian` CLI

Installed into `.venv/bin/custodian` by `uv sync`; symlinked to `~/.local/bin` by `make install-cli`.

```
custodian register-project [--domain DOMAIN] [--path PATH]
```

- `--path` defaults to current working directory
- `--domain` is auto-detected from `project_charter_v*.md` frontmatter if omitted

```
custodian status
```

Prints API health, totals, and any blocking decisions.

### What `register-project` does

1. Verifies the API is reachable (fails fast with `make api` hint)
2. Looks up the topic ID for the domain via `/topics/?status=active`
3. Checks that `state-hub` is in `~/.claude.json`
4. Writes `$PROJECT_PATH/CLAUDE.md` from `scripts/project_claude_md.template`
5. Posts a `milestone` progress event recording the registration

---

## Project Registration Scripts

| Script | Purpose |
|--------|---------|
| `scripts/register_project.sh` | Shell version of `custodian register-project` |
| `scripts/patch_mcp_cwd.py` | Legacy: patched `cwd` for the old stdio registration (no longer needed) |
| `scripts/project_claude_md.template` | CLAUDE.md template with `{PROJECT_NAME}`, `{DOMAIN}`, `{TOPIC_ID}` |
| `scripts/seed.py` | Insert the 6 canonical topics into a fresh database |
| `scripts/pull_image.py` | WSL2 workaround: pull Docker images via Python urllib with Range-request chunking |

---

## Dashboard

Four pages at http://127.0.0.1:3000 (dev) or built with `npm run build`:

| Page | Content |
|------|---------|
| **Overview** | Status cards, task-by-status chart, recent activity feed, decisions due within 7 days |
| **Workstreams** | Filterable table by domain/status/owner; selected workstream task list; progress timeline |
| **Decisions** | Pending tab (with escalation highlights) and Made tab; resolution velocity chart |
| **Progress** | Append-only event feed with author badges; 30-day event volume chart |

Data loaders (`src/data/*.json.py`) are Python scripts that call the local API. They run at dev-server start and on `npm run build`. Clear the cache if data appears stale:

```bash
rm -rf dashboard/src/.observablehq/cache/
```

---

## Known Issues / WSL2 Notes

- **TLS bad record MAC on large downloads**: WSL2 corrupts packets on big TCP transfers. Use `scripts/pull_image.py` instead of `docker pull` for future image pulls.
- **MCP server is now SSE, not stdio**: Re-registration is `claude mcp add-json -s user state-hub '{"type":"sse","url":"http://127.0.0.1:8001/sse"}'`. The `patch_mcp_cwd.py` script and `.mcp.json` config are legacy artifacts from the old stdio setup.
- **AsyncSession concurrency**: SQLAlchemy 2.0 async sessions don't support concurrent operations. All queries in `/state/summary` run sequentially on a single session.
