State Graph (state-graph-mcp)

This project tracks workflow state, tasks, design decisions, and blockers using state-graph-mcp.

1. Priority Order

Before doing any coding or investigation:

1. get_project_summary — Always run this first to understand current project state, active branches, and overall progress.
2. find_blockers — Identify any active blockers preventing progress.
3. list_nodes — Find pending tasks, past decisions, or milestones.
4. trace_dependencies — Trace what depends on or blocks a task.

2. When to Write to the Graph

You MUST update the graph as you work:

• Starting a new task: Create a node with add_node(type: "task", title: "...").
• Making a design or implementation decision: Document it with add_node(type: "decision", title: "...", metadata: { "rationale": "..." }).
• Encountering a blocker: Record the blocker with add_node(type: "blocker", ...) and connect it to the blocked task using add_edge(type: "blocks", source_id: blocker_id, target_id: task_id).
• Completing a task: Update the status to done using update_node(id: task_id, status: "done").
• Creating/generating a new file: Create an artifact node with add_node(type: "artifact", ...) and connect it using add_edge(type: "produces").

3. Workflow Pattern

1. Start of session: Run get_project_summary and find_blockers to align on current status.
2. Task decomposition: Decompose user requests into tasks and add them to the graph.
3. Execution: Mark tasks as "in_progress", document design decisions as they occur, and log blockers if you hit any obstacles.
4. Resolution: Mark tasks as "done", document completed artifacts, and resolve blockers.

4. Codebase Seeding on Initialization

If the project was just initialized or is missing high-level structure (Plans, Milestones, Decisions):

1. Inspect the Codebase: Read the README and core files to understand the roadmap and architecture.
2. Scaffold the Roadmap: Create a plan node (e.g., "Project Roadmap") and add milestone nodes representing key target phases, connecting them using part_of edges.
3. Scaffold Architecture: Create decision nodes representing core technical choices (e.g., choice of databases, frameworks) and link them to the milestones/tasks using decided_in edges.
