@getbourdon/mcp-server

Bourdon L6 — the MCP server facade (BUSL-1.1). The TypeScript mirror of the Python core/l6_server.py on @modelcontextprotocol/sdk. It exposes @getbourdon/federation (the L6Store + trust boundary) natively to any MCP-aware agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor) and is wire-compatible with the Python server in BOTH directions, so mixed-language federation works.

Python (pip install bourdon) is the oracle. This package asserts its tool payloads against the @getbourdon/conformance mcp_snapshots fixtures, recovered through the exact same wire path a Python RemoteL6Client uses.

The wire contract (the single highest-risk detail)

Every tool handler returns JSON-in-TextContent:

{ content: [{ type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(payload) }] }

— not the SDK's default structured content. The Python RemoteL6Client (and @getbourdon/client) recover the payload with json.loads(item.text) / JSON.parse(text). Returning structured content instead makes a Python peer's json.loads(item.text) get None and silently breaks federation. The mcp_snapshots fixtures snapshot the post-round-trip payload, so the parity test drives a real MCP client over an in-memory transport, recovers content[0].text, JSON.parses it, normalizes, and compares to the Python .res.

Tools (15) + resources (3)

Thin delegates to @getbourdon/federation + @getbourdon/recognition. Tool names, arg names, and defaults are byte-identical to the Python server — including the access_level default split:

default public (read/query)	default team (recognition / turn)
query_agent_memory, list_recent_work, find_entity, get_cross_agent_summary	prepare_recognition_context, compile_codex_turn, get_deeper_context

list_agents, export_agents, commit_to_federation, list_notes, and list_workstreams round out the read/write set. Version history ships as list_memory_versions and explain_memory_change (reads) plus rollback_agent_memory — a trusted-only, audit-gated restore of an archived manifest, byte-for-byte; credential redaction applies at every read surface, so restored bytes are never emitted unredacted. compile_codex_turn returns the deferred P7 stub ({_status:"deferred", schema_version:"codex-turn-brief/v1", reason}) — the turn compiler is environment-bound and ships in Phase 7. Resources: agent-library://agents, agent-library://agents/{agent_id}/memory, agent-library://entities/{name}.

Transports + auth

import { createL6Server, runStdio, runHttpServer } from "@getbourdon/mcp-server";
import { L6Store, FederationRegistry } from "@getbourdon/federation";

const store = new L6Store("/path/to/agent-library");
const registry = new FederationRegistry();

// stdio (the MCP-host default; resolves to OPERATOR — v0.8.0 behavior):
await runStdio(createL6Server(store, { registry }));

// streamable-HTTP (Bearer auth, stateless):
runHttpServer(() => createL6Server(store, { registry }), {
  host: "127.0.0.1", // default; a NON-loopback bind without auth REFUSES to start
  port: 7500,
  registry,
});

Security invariants are enforced in code: an empty Bearer can never authenticate as OPERATOR (the legacy compare needs both a configured legacy token and a non-empty presented token); a non-loopback bind without auth (or with --allow-unauthenticated, which is loopback-only) throws BindRefusedError; identity propagates to the tool handlers via AsyncLocalStorage (runWithCaller) so a quarantined caller can never escalate.

The bourdon-l6-server bin mirrors python -m bourdon.core.l6_server: --library --transport {stdio,http} --port 7500 --host 127.0.0.1 --peer --peers-config --allow-unauthenticated.
