- Uses CLI execution via `executeTaskMasterCommand` as a fallback.

- `processMCPResponseData`: Filters/cleans data for MCP responses (e.g., removing `details`, `testStrategy`). This is the default processor used by `executeMCPToolAction`.
- `executeMCPToolAction`: The primary wrapper function for tool execution logic.
- `executeTaskMasterCommand`: Fallback for executing CLI commands.
- **Caching**: To improve performance for frequently called read operations (like `listTasks`), a caching layer using `lru-cache` is implemented.
- Caching logic should be added *inside* the direct function wrappers in [`task-master-core.js`](mdc:mcp-server/src/core/task-master-core.js) using the `getCachedOrExecute` utility from [`tools/utils.js`](mdc:mcp-server/src/tools/utils.js).
- Generate unique cache keys based on function arguments that define a distinct call.
- Responses will include a `fromCache` flag.
- Cache statistics can be monitored using the `cacheStats` MCP tool (implemented via `getCacheStatsDirect`).
## Implementing MCP Support for a Command
Follow these steps to add MCP support for an existing Task Master command (see [`new_features.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/new_features.mdc) for more detail):
1. **Ensure Core Logic Exists**: Verify the core functionality is implemented and exported from the relevant module in `scripts/modules/`.
2. **Create Direct Wrapper**: In [`task-master-core.js`](mdc:mcp-server/src/core/task-master-core.js):
- Import the core function.
- Create an `async function yourCommandDirect(args, log)` wrapper.
- Inside the wrapper:
- Use `findTasksJsonPath(args, log)` if the command needs the tasks file path.
- Extract and validate arguments from `args`.
- Call the imported core logic function.
- Handle errors using `try/catch`.
- Return a standardized object: `{ success: true, data: result }` or `{ success: false, error: { code: '...', message: '...' } }`.
- Export the wrapper function and add it to the `directFunctions` map.
2. **Create Direct Wrapper**: In [`task-master-core.js`](mdc:mcp-server/src/core/task-master-core.js):
- Import the core function.
- Import `getCachedOrExecute` from `../tools/utils.js`.
- Create an `async function yourCommandDirect(args, log)` wrapper.
- Inside the wrapper:
- Determine arguments needed for both the core logic and the cache key (e.g., `tasksPath`, filters). Use `findTasksJsonPath(args, log)` if needed.
- **Generate a unique `cacheKey`** based on the arguments that define a distinct operation (e.g., `\`yourCommand:${tasksPath}:${filter}\``).
- **Define the `coreActionFn`**: An `async` function that contains the actual call to the imported core logic function, handling its specific errors and returning `{ success: true/false, data/error }`.
- **Call `getCachedOrExecute`**:
```javascript
const result = await getCachedOrExecute({
cacheKey,
actionFn: coreActionFn, // The function wrapping the core logic call
log
});
return result; // Returns { success, data/error, fromCache }
```
- Export the wrapper function and add it to the `directFunctions` map.
3. **Create MCP Tool**: In `mcp-server/src/tools/`:
- Create a new file (e.g., `yourCommand.js`).
- Import `z` for parameter schema definition.

- MCP tools should return data formatted by `createContentResponse` (which stringifies objects) or `createErrorResponse`.
- The `processMCPResponseData` utility automatically removes potentially large fields like `details` and `testStrategy` from task objects before they are returned. This is the default behavior when using `executeMCPToolAction`. If specific fields need to be preserved or different fields removed, a custom `processResult` function can be passed to `executeMCPToolAction`.
- The `handleApiResult` utility (used by `executeMCPToolAction`) now expects the result object from the direct function wrapper to include a `fromCache` boolean flag. This flag is included in the final JSON response sent to the MCP client, nested alongside the actual data (e.g., `{ "fromCache": true, "data": { ... } }`).

- ✅ **DO**: Use this (usually via `handleApiResult` or `executeMCPToolAction`) to format error responses for MCP.

- **`getCachedOrExecute({ cacheKey, actionFn, log })`**:
- ✅ **DO**: Use this utility *inside direct function wrappers* (like `listTasksDirect` in `task-master-core.js`) to implement caching for MCP operations.
- Checks the `ContextManager` cache using `cacheKey`.
- If a hit occurs, returns the cached result directly.
- If a miss occurs, it executes the provided `actionFn` (which should be an async function returning `{ success, data/error }`).
- If `actionFn` succeeds, its result is stored in the cache under `cacheKey`.
- Returns the result (either cached or fresh) wrapped in the standard structure `{ success, data/error, fromCache: boolean }`.
- **`executeMCPToolAction({ actionFn, args, log, actionName, processResult })`**:
- Update: While this function *can* technically coordinate caching if provided a `cacheKeyGenerator`, the current preferred pattern involves implementing caching *within* the `actionFn` (the direct wrapper) using `getCachedOrExecute`. `executeMCPToolAction` primarily orchestrates the call to `actionFn` and handles processing its result (including the `fromCache` flag) via `handleApiResult`.
- **`handleApiResult(result, log, errorPrefix, processFunction)`**:
- Update: Now expects the `result` object to potentially contain a `fromCache` boolean flag. If present, this flag is included in the final response payload generated by `createContentResponse` (e.g., `{ fromCache: true, data: ... }`).
