Adds metadata to skills 2. Adds relationships between skills 3. Adds examples to skills 4. Available in both CLI and MCP tool formats **Current Implementation Check**: ```bash $ ./mcp-skillset-dev --help | grep -i enrich # No results found $ grep -r "enrich" src/mcp_skills/ # No implementation found ``` **Recommendation**: This feature requires implementation. Suggested implementation plan: #### CLI Command Design: ```bash mcp-skillset enrich <skill_id> [OPTIONS] Options: --add-metadata KEY=VALUE Add metadata field --add-relationship SKILL_ID Add related skill --add-example TEXT Add example usage --interactive Interactive enrichment mode ``` #### MCP Tool Design: ```python @mcp.tool() async def enrich_skill( skill_id: str, metadata: dict[str, str] | None = None, relationships: list[str] | None = None, examples: list[str] | None = None, ) -> dict[str, Any]: """Enrich skill with additional metadata, relationships, and examples.""" pass ``` #### Implementation Requirements: 1. **Metadata Enhancement**: - Author information - License details - Usage statistics - Last updated timestamp - Quality score 2. **Relationship Management**: - Similar skills - Prerequisite skills - Alternative skills - Complementary skills 3. **Example Addition**: - Code examples - Use cases - Best practices - Common pitfalls 4. **Storage**: - Update skill file frontmatter - Update knowledge graph relationships - Update vector embeddings if description changes - Persist to SQLite metadata store **Phase 5 Status**: ⚠️ BLOCKED - Requires implementation --- ## Performance Metrics ### Indexing Performance - **Initial Index**: 49 skills in ~3-5 seconds - **Vector Store Size**: 98 KB (2.2 MB total with SQLite) - **Graph Build Time**: <1 second (952 edges) - **Search Latency**: <100ms per query ### Test Execution Performance ``` MCP Tool Tests: - search_skills_basic: 3.05s ✅ - get_skill_existing: ~2s ✅ - recommend_skills_project: ~3s ✅ - list_categories_basic: ~2s ✅ Total Test Suite: ~10s for core MCP tools ``` ### Memory Usage - **ChromaDB**: ~2.2 MB on disk - **Knowledge Graph**: In-memory (NetworkX) - **Embedding Model**: ~420 MB (sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2) --- ## Issues and Warnings ### Skill Parsing Errors **Severity**: Low **Count**: 20 skills from bobmatnyc/claude-mpm-skills **Details**: ``` Failed Validations: - 13 skills: Empty name field (string_too_short) - 6 skills: No frontmatter found - 1 skill: Template with insufficient instructions ``` **Impact**: These skills are excluded from indexing but don't affect core functionality. **Recommendation**: Fix skill file formatting in source repositories. ### Knowledge Graph Warnings **Severity**: Low **Count**: 2 warnings **Details**: ``` WARNING: Skill not found in graph: anthropics/skills/webapp-testing WARNING: Skill not found in graph: anthropics/skills/document-skills/pptx ``` **Impact**: Some skills not properly linked in knowledge graph. **Recommendation**: Investigate graph building logic for edge cases. ### Pydantic Deprecation Warnings **Severity**: Low **Count**: 2 files **Details**: ``` PydanticDeprecatedSince20: Support for class-based `config` is deprecated Files: - src/mcp_skills/models/config.py:80 - src/mcp_skills/models/skill.py:28 ``` **Impact**: No functional impact, but will break in Pydantic V3.0 **Recommendation**: Migrate to ConfigDict before Pydantic 3.0 release. --- ## Test Coverage Analysis ### Code Coverage Summary ``` Total Coverage: 31.35% ✅ Tested: 655 lines ❌ Untested: 1,434 lines Key Components Coverage: -
