The MCP project_create tool has passed auto_close=False since 8f8abe410
(2026-06-13), but create_project_handler only forwarded {"name": name}
to the REST API — auto_close was silently dropped and the controller's
Project.__init__ default (True, unchanged since 2016) won. Every project
created via MCP since June has auto_close=true on disk and closes when
the last client disconnects.
- projects.py: forward auto_close when present in params
- test_handlers.py: assert the forwarded json_data (with and without
auto_close)
- test_tool_params.py: the tool/handler param consistency test never
actually checked anything — three blind spots now fixed:
1. dispatch is asyncio.to_thread(_run_handler_sync, ...) whose
node.func is an Attribute, not a Name — no call ever matched
2. tools that build 'params' as a variable before passing it were
skipped; now the initial dict literal is resolved (extra-passed
direction only)
3. tool functions are async defs (ast.AsyncFunctionDef) but the
enclosing-function lookup only matched ast.FunctionDef, so tool_name
was always None
Also: map the two marker handlers missing from HANDLER_FILES, skip
handlers that forward params.items() generically (wildcard), union
passed keys across multi-branch dispatches (node_create single/batch),
and drop two dead helpers.
Verified: full suite 1568 passed; reverting the handler fix turns both
test_tool_handler_param_consistency and test_create red.
MCP is an optional AI feature that already depends on
agent.gns3_copilot (Gns3Connector, nornir/netmiko tools) and whose
MCP_AVAILABLE feature flag lives in gns3server/agent. Moving it there
collocates all AI features under one tree and removes AI code from the
core REST routes.
- git mv gns3server/api/routes/mcp -> gns3server/agent/mcp (no content changes)
- api/server.py, core/tasks.py: update import paths
- tests: tests/api/routes/mcp -> tests/agent/mcp, rewrite patch BASE and
handler imports; fix MCP_DIR depth in test_tool_params.py
- agent/__init__.py: probe the SDK via importlib.import_module so the
top-level name "mcp" is not bound in the agent namespace (it would
shadow the new gns3server.agent.mcp subpackage and break
'from gns3server.agent import mcp')
- docs: update source file paths
Verified: full suite 1567 passed; 82 MCP tools registered, SSE mounted
at /v3/mcp/transport.
