Gortex (Project Management) - **Command:** C:\Users\270015376\Documents\gortex.exe mcp - **Use:** "List all tasks in the current project" ### 2. MySQL (Database) - **Connection:** mysql://shopdb:shopdb-dev-password@127.0.0.1:3306/shopdb_flask - **Use:** "Show me the endpoints table schema" ### 3. Browser (Web Automation) - **Package:** @agent-infra/mcp-server-browser v1.2.29 - **Use:** "Take a screenshot of https://localhost:5001" ### 4. VM - SupportUser (Admin) - **Connection:** SSH to 192.168.100.10 as SupportUser - **Use:** "Install agent on VM" ### 5. VM - shopfloor (Standard User) - **Connection:** SSH to 192.168.100.10 as shopfloor - **Use:** "Test tray as shopfloor user" --- ## VM Configuration (SFTest) ### Network - **IP:** 192.168.100.10 - **Subnet:** 192.168.100.x (internal only) - **Host IP:** 192.168.100.1 ### User Accounts **SupportUser (Administrator)** - Password: vos313 - Purpose: Installation and configuration - MCP: `vm` **shopfloor (Standard User)** - Password: vos313 - Auto-login: Yes (logs in automatically on boot) - Purpose: Realistic endpoint testing - MCP: `vm-shopfloor` ### Why Two Users? **Matches production deployment:** 1. IT installs agent as admin (SupportUser) 2. Users run tray as standard user (shopfloor) 3. Tests realistic permissions and behavior --- ## Hyper-V Permissions Clarified ### You Are NOT in "Hyper-V Administrators" Group **What still works:** - [X] VM MCP (uses SSH, not Hyper-V API) - [X] Hyper-V Manager GUI (all features) - [X] Start/stop VMs via GUI - [X] Create/restore snapshots via GUI - [X] Connect to VM console **What doesn't work:** - [ ] PowerShell Hyper-V cmdlets (Get-VM, Checkpoint-VM, etc.) - [ ] Scripted snapshot automation - [ ] Automated VM status checks **Impact:** None for daily development. Only affects PowerShell automation. **To get group access:** Ask IT admin to run: ```powershell Add-LocalGroupMember -Group "Hyper-V Administrators" -Member "270015376" ``` --- ## How to Use ### Start Development Session ```powershell # 1. Navigate to repository cd C:\Users\270015376\Documents\github\flask-shopdb # 2. Verify setup (optional) .\\.claude\test-mcp-servers.ps1 # 3. Start Claude Code claude ``` **MCP servers load automatically** when you start Claude Code from flask-shopdb directory. ### Test MCP Servers ``` "List all tasks in the current project" -> Tests Gortex "Show me the first 5 endpoints in the database" -> Tests MySQL "What tables exist in the database?" -> Tests MySQL schema "Take a screenshot of https://localhost:5001" -> Tests Browser (requires ShopDB running) "What is the hostname of the VM?" -> Tests VM SSH (requires VM running) ``` --- ## Example Workflows ### 1. Database Development ``` You: "Add last_boot_time field to endpoints table" Claude: 1. [MySQL: Check current schema] 2. [Edit: Create migration] 3. [Bash: Run migration] 4. [MySQL: Verify field added] 5. [MySQL: Test with sample data] ``` ### 2. UI Testing ``` You: "Test the notifications plugin" Claude: 1. [Bash: Build frontend] 2. [Bash: Restart Docker] 3. [Browser: Navigate to /notifications] 4. [MySQL: Insert test alert] 5. [Browser: Refresh and screenshot] 6. [MySQL: Clean up test data] ``` ### 3. Agent Deployment (VM Required) ``` You: "Deploy agent to VM and test" Claude: 1. [Bash: Build agent] 2. [vm (SupportUser): Copy to VM] 3. [vm (SupportUser): Install service] 4. [vm (SupportUser): Start service] 5. [MySQL: Create test alert] 6. [vm-shopfloor: Check tray notification] 7. [MySQL: Verify alert delivered] ``` --- ## Documentation Navigation **Start here:** - `INDEX-MCP-DOCS.md` - Master index with reading order **Daily use:** - `STATUS.md` - Current status checks - `README-MCP-SETUP.md` - Quick reference - `test-mcp-servers.ps1` - Test suite **Deep dives:** - `MCP-INTEGRATION-GUIDE.md` - Complete workflows - `VM-SNAPSHOT-GUIDE.md` - Snapshot management - `VM-USERS.md` - User accounts explained - `HYPER-V-PERMISSIONS.md` - Permission details **Setup:** - `quick-start-mcp.ps1` - Automated setup - `enable-vm-ssh.ps1` - VM SSH setup --- ## Memory Updated MCP setup saved to persistent memory: ``` ~/.claude/projects/C--Users-270015376-Documents-github/memory/infrastructure_mcp_servers.md ``` **Includes:** - All MCP server configurations - Documentation locations - VM setup details - Quick reference commands --- ## Next Steps ### Immediate (Ready Now) 1. **Start using MCP servers:** ```bash cd flask-shopdb claude ``` 2. **Try example commands:** - "List all tasks" - "Show me the database tables" - "What endpoints are in the database?" 3. **Read integration guide:** ```bash cat .claude/MCP-INTEGRATION-GUIDE.md ``` ### When Ready for VM Testing 1. **Start VM:** - Open Hyper-V Manager - Right-click SFTest VM -> Start - Wait for boot (shopfloor auto-logs in) 2. **Verify SSH:** ```bash ssh SupportUser@192.168.100.10 "hostname" ssh shopfloor@192.168.100.10 "whoami" ``` 3. **Create baseline snapshots:** - Right-click VM -> Checkpoint - Create "Clean-Install", "Agent-Installed", etc. - See `VM-SNAPSHOT-GUIDE.md` 4. **Re-run tests:** ```powershell .\\.claude\test-mcp-servers.ps1 ``` ### Learning Phase 1.
