## Features

<!-- DOMAIN-START -->
- **Logo retrieval** (`get_logo`) — fetch a company logo as an image plus URL by domain, ticker, ISIN, crypto symbol, or brand name; supports size, format, theme, greyscale, retina, and fallback options. Requires a publishable key (`pk_…`).
- **Brand search** (`search_brands`) — resolve a brand or company name to candidate domains and logo URLs via typeahead or exact-match. Requires a secret key (`sk_…`).
- **Company description** (`describe_company`) — return structured company data (name, description, brand colours, social links) for a domain. Requires a secret key (`sk_…`).
- **Full brand profile** (`get_brand`) — return the complete brand profile (logo, brandmark, banners, colours, description) for a domain — a richer superset of `describe_company`. Requires a secret key (`sk_…`).
- **Graceful degradation** — tools are registered only when the corresponding API key is present; missing-key tools are hidden from the MCP client rather than registered and failing at call time.
<!-- DOMAIN-END -->

## What you can do with it

<!-- DOMAIN-START -->
With this server mounted in an MCP client (Claude, etc.), you can:

- **Fetch a logo** — "Get the logo for stripe.com." Uses `get_logo` (publishable key required).
- **Identify a brand's domain** — "What domain is behind the brand 'Stripe'?" Uses `search_brands` (secret key required).
- **Look up company info** — "What colours does Stripe use in their branding?" Uses `describe_company` (secret key required).
- **Get the full brand kit** — "Show me the complete brand profile for shopify.com." Uses `get_brand` (secret key required).
- **Logo by ticker** — "Fetch the logo for AAPL." Uses `get_logo` with `identifier_type=ticker` (publishable key required).

## Installation

### From PyPI

```bash
pip install logodev-mcp
```

If you add optional extras via the `PROJECT-EXTRAS-START` / `PROJECT-EXTRAS-END` sentinels in `pyproject.toml`, document them below:

<!-- DOMAIN-START -->
<!-- List optional extras and their purpose here (e.g. `pip install logodev-mcp[embeddings]`). Kept across copier update. -->
<!-- DOMAIN-END -->

### From source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/pvliesdonk/logodev-mcp.git
cd logodev-mcp
uv sync --all-extras --all-groups
```

### Docker

```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/pvliesdonk/logodev-mcp:latest
```

A `compose.yml` ships at the repo root as a starting point — copy `.env.example` to `.env`, edit, and `docker compose up -d`.

To attach a remote Python debugger (development only — the protocol is unauthenticated), see [Remote debugging](docs/deployment/docker.md#remote-debugging).

### Linux packages (.deb / .rpm)

Download `.deb` or `.rpm` packages from the [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/pvliesdonk/logodev-mcp/releases) page. Both install a hardened systemd unit; env configuration is sourced from `/etc/logodev-mcp/env` (copy from the shipped `/etc/logodev-mcp/env.example`).

### Claude Desktop (.mcpb bundle)

Download the `.mcpb` bundle from the [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/pvliesdonk/logodev-mcp/releases) page and double-click to install, or run:

```bash
mcpb install logodev-mcp-<version>.mcpb
```

Claude Desktop prompts for required env vars via a GUI wizard — no manual JSON editing needed.

For manual Claude Desktop configuration and setup options, see [Claude Desktop deployment](docs/deployment/claude-desktop.md).

## Quick start

```bash
logodev-mcp serve                                # stdio transport
logodev-mcp serve --transport http --port 8000   # streamable HTTP
```

For library usage (embedding the domain logic without the MCP transport), import from the `logodev_mcp` package directly — see the project's domain modules under `src/logodev_mcp/` for entry points.

### Server info

The server registers a built-in `get_server_info` tool (via `fastmcp_pvl_core.register_server_info_tool`) so operators can confirm the deployed version with a single MCP call. The default response carries `server_name`, `server_version`, and `core_version`. Servers that talk to a remote upstream wire upstream version reporting inside the `DOMAIN-UPSTREAM-START` / `DOMAIN-UPSTREAM-END` sentinel in `src/logodev_mcp/server.py` — see [`CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md#server-info-tool-get_server_info) for the wiring pattern.

## Configuration

Core environment variables shared across all `fastmcp-pvl-core`-based services:

| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `FASTMCP_LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | Log level for FastMCP internals and app loggers (`DEBUG` / `INFO` / `WARNING` / `ERROR`). The `-v` CLI flag overrides to `DEBUG`. |
| `FASTMCP_ENABLE_RICH_LOGGING` | `true` | Set to `false` for plain / structured JSON log output. |
| `LOGODEV_MCP_KV_STORE_URL` | `file:///data/state` | Persistent-state backend URL for pvl-core subsystems — `file:///path` (survives restarts), `memory://` (dev/ephemeral). |

Domain-specific variables go below under [Domain configuration](#domain-configuration).

## Authentication

Callers authenticate via a bearer token or OIDC (mutually exclusive). See the [Authentication guide](docs/guides/authentication.md) for setup, mapped multi-subject tokens, OIDC, and troubleshooting.

## Post-scaffold checklist

After `copier copy` and `gh repo create --push`:

1. **Fill in the DOMAIN blocks** in this README (Features, What you can do with it, Domain configuration, Key design decisions) and in `CLAUDE.md`.
2. Configure GitHub secrets — see below.
3. Install dev + docs tooling: `uv sync --all-extras --all-groups`.
4. Install pre-commit hooks: `uv run pre-commit install`.
5. Run the gate locally: `uv run pytest -x -q && uv run ruff check --fix . && uv run ruff format . && uv run mypy src/ tests/`.
6. Push the first commit — CI should be green.

## GitHub secrets

CI workflows reference three repository secrets. Configure them via **Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions** or with `gh secret set`:

| Secret | Used by | How to generate |
|---|---|---|
| `RELEASE_TOKEN` | `release.yml`, `copier-update.yml` | Fine-grained PAT at <https://github.com/settings/personal-access-tokens/new> with `contents: write` and `pull_requests: write` (the `copier-update` cron opens PRs). Scoped to this repo. |
| `CODECOV_TOKEN` | `ci.yml` | <https://codecov.io> — sign in with GitHub, add the repo, copy the upload token from the repo settings page. |
| `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` | `claude.yml`, `claude-code-review.yml` | Run `claude setup-token` locally and paste the result. |

```bash
gh secret set RELEASE_TOKEN
gh secret set CODECOV_TOKEN
gh secret set CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN
```

`GITHUB_TOKEN` is auto-provided — no action needed.

## Local development

The PR gate (matches CI):

```bash
uv run pytest -x -q                                  # tests
uv run ruff check --fix . && uv run ruff format .    # lint + format
uv run mypy src/ tests/                              # type-check
```

Pre-commit runs a subset of the gate on each commit; see `.pre-commit-config.yaml` for details, or [`CLAUDE.md`](CLAUDE.md) for the full Hard PR Acceptance Gates.

## Troubleshooting

### Moving a scaffolded project

`uv sync` creates `.venv/bin/*` scripts with absolute shebangs pointing at the venv Python. If you move the repo after scaffolding (`mv /old/path /new/path`), `uv run pytest` fails with `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'fastmcp'` because the stale shebang resolves to a different interpreter than the venv's site-packages.

**Fix:**

```bash
rm -rf .venv
uv sync --all-extras --all-groups
```

`uv run python -m pytest` also works as a one-shot workaround (bypasses the stale entry-script shim).

### `uv.lock` refresh after `copier update`

When `copier update` introduces new dependencies (e.g. a new extra added to `pyproject.toml.jinja`), CI runs `uv sync --frozen` which fails against a stale lockfile. Run `uv lock` locally and commit the refreshed `uv.lock` alongside accepting the copier-update PR.

## Domain configuration

<!-- DOMAIN-START -->
Domain environment variables use the `LOGODEV_MCP_` prefix:

| Variable | Default | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `LOGODEV_MCP_PUBLISHABLE_KEY` | — | Conditional | logo.dev publishable key (`pk_…`). Enables the `get_logo` tool. Omit to hide that tool. |
| `LOGODEV_MCP_SECRET_KEY` | — | Conditional | logo.dev secret key (`sk_…`). Enables `search_brands`, `describe_company`, and `get_brand`. Omit to hide those tools. |
| `LOGODEV_MCP_DETECT_PLAN` | `true` | No | Probe `describe`/`brand` entitlement on startup and hide the tools the plan does not allow. Set `false` to skip probing and register every secret-key tool. |
| `LOGODEV_MCP_STATE_DIR` | `/data/state` | No | Directory for the cached plan-detection verdict (`entitlements.json`). |

At least one key must be set for any API tool to be registered. Both keys may be set simultaneously to enable all four tools.

Which tool each logo.dev plan unlocks (`get_logo`/`search_brands` on free, `describe_company` on any paid plan, `get_brand` on Pro/Enterprise) is documented in the [plans and capabilities matrix](docs/configuration.md#plans-and-capabilities).
<!-- DOMAIN-END -->

## Key design decisions

<!-- DOMAIN-START -->
- **Two-key gating** — `LOGODEV_MCP_PUBLISHABLE_KEY` controls `get_logo`; `LOGODEV_MCP_SECRET_KEY` controls `search_brands`, `describe_company`, and `get_brand`. Tools for a missing key are never registered, not merely guarded at call time.
- **Plan detection hides unentitled tools** — `describe_company` needs a paid plan and `get_brand` needs Pro/Enterprise. logo.dev has no plan endpoint, so on startup the server probes each on `logo.dev` and disables the tool on a `401`/`403`. `search_brands` is never gated; any ambiguous probe result (timeout, `5xx`, `404`, `429`) fails open and keeps the tool enabled. The verdict is cached under `LOGODEV_MCP_STATE_DIR` for 7 days (re-probed on key rotation). Disable with `LOGODEV_MCP_DETECT_PLAN=false`.
- **Domain logic stays FastMCP-free** — `src/logodev_mcp/domain.py` contains the `Service` class and `LogoDevError` with no FastMCP imports; `src/logodev_mcp/tools.py` is the sole FastMCP layer.
- **Errors surface as strings** — `LogoDevError` raised in domain code is caught in each tool wrapper and returned as a plain text message so the MCP client sees a readable error, not a server exception.
- **Logo tool returns URL + image** — `get_logo` returns both the CDN URL (text) and the image bytes (image content block) unless `url_only=True`, in which case only the URL string is returned.
