# wet-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: `n24q02m/wet-mcp`
- capability: Open-source MCP server for AI agents: web search, content extraction, and library docs -- 5-strategy scraping, runs without API keys.
- expected_user_outcome: Open-source MCP server for AI agents: web search, content extraction, and library docs -- 5-strategy scraping, runs without API keys.

## 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.

- **Overview & System Architecture**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: README.md, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, src/wet_mcp/server.py, src/wet_mcp/__main__.py, src/wet_mcp/relay_setup.py
- **Core Tools & Feature Surface**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: src/wet_mcp/server.py, src/wet_mcp/sources/docs.py, src/wet_mcp/sources/crawler.py, src/wet_mcp/sources/searxng.py, src/wet_mcp/sources/search_backends.py
- **Configuration, Model Chains & Deployment**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: src/wet_mcp/config.py, src/wet_mcp/llm.py, src/wet_mcp/embedder.py, src/wet_mcp/reranker.py, src/wet_mcp/searxng_runner.py
- **Data Layer, Sync & Security**: importance `high`
  - source_paths: src/wet_mcp/db.py, src/wet_mcp/db_cf.py, src/wet_mcp/backends/d1.py, src/wet_mcp/backends/vectorize.py, src/wet_mcp/cache.py

## Repo Inspection Evidence

- repo_clone_verified: true
- repo_inspection_verified: true
- repo_commit: `a68e8573a831f64e288d3b0146908882c31e959b`
- inspected_files: `Dockerfile`, `README.md`, `docker-compose.yml`, `package.json`, `pyproject.toml`, `uv.lock`, `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md`, `docs/BENCHMARKS.md`, `docs/benchmarks/v1_phase2_baseline.json`, `docs/cf-template.md`, `docs/docs-search.md`, `docs/interact.md`, `docs/migration.md`, `docs/passport.md`, `src/wet_mcp/__init__.py`, `src/wet_mcp/__main__.py`, `src/wet_mcp/alembic/env.py`, `src/wet_mcp/alembic/versions/docs_001_baseline.py`, `src/wet_mcp/alembic/versions/docs_002_libraries.py`, `src/wet_mcp/alembic/versions/docs_003_project_context.py`

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.
