# cpp-quick-start-mcp - Doramagic AI Context Pack

> Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated.

## Project

- canonical_name: `m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp`
- capability: A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that equips any AI agent with the ability to expertly scaffold cross-platform C++ projects
- expected_user_outcome: A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that equips any AI agent with the ability to expertly scaffold cross-platform C++ projects

## Operating Boundaries

- Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it.
- Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references.
- When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact.
- publish_status: `publishable`
- blocking_gaps: none

## Doramagic Context Augmentation

The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints.

## Human Manual Outline

Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph.

Host AI hard rules:
- Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence.
- When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal.
- Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph.

- **Project Overview & MCP Architecture**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: README.md, package.json, src/index.ts, AGENTS.md
- **Installation & Client Configuration**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: README.md, package.json, tsconfig.json, eslint.config.js
- **Scaffolding Skills Knowledge Base**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: data/scaffold-base-configs/SKILL.md, data/scaffold-cmake/SKILL.md, data/scaffold-cmake-presets/SKILL.md, data/scaffold-bazel/SKILL.md, data/scaffold-meson/SKILL.md
- **Interview Workflow & Usage Patterns**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: data/meta-quickstart/SKILL.md, src/index.ts, README.md, AGENTS.md

## Repo Inspection Evidence

- repo_clone_verified: true
- repo_inspection_verified: true
- repo_commit: `3ff81eea68f01a99d54bf4f646117ddd6982b46b`
- inspected_files: `README.md`, `package.json`, `src/index.ts`

Host AI hard rules:
- Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read.
- Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts.
- Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully.

## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints

These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes.

### Constraint 1: Configuration risk requires verification

- Trigger: Project evidence flags a configuration risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: capability.host_targets | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 2: Capability evidence risk requires verification

- Trigger: README/documentation is current enough for a first validation pass.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: capability.assumptions | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 3: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: Project evidence flags a maintenance risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow.
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: evidence.maintainer_signals | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 4: Security or permission risk requires verification

- Trigger: no_demo
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: downstream_validation.risk_items | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 5: Security or permission risk requires verification

- Trigger: no_demo
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: risks.scoring_risks | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 6: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: issue_or_pr_quality=unknown。
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: evidence.maintainer_signals | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.

### Constraint 7: Maintenance risk requires verification

- Trigger: release_recency=unknown。
- Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment.
- Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user.
- Evidence: evidence.maintainer_signals | https://github.com/m-velikov/cpp-quick-start-mcp
- Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it.
