### Description (declared)

# symbolic_math_mcp

`symbolic_math_mcp` is a standalone FastMCP server that validates symbolic math proof files in YAML format.

It uses exactly one function from `symbolic-math-verify` for verification:

- `symbolic_math_verify.verify_yaml_file()`

## Features

- exposes one synchronous MCP tool: `check_symbolic_math`
- exposes one synchronous MCP tool for parallel directory validation: `check_symbolic_math_parallel`
- supports `stdio://`, `http://`, and `https://` configuration URLs
- queues requests above `max_requests`
- enforces a total per-request timeout
- automatically switches to a free port if the configured HTTP port is already in use

## Requirements

- Python 3.11+
- `fastmcp>=3.4.2`
- `symbolic-math-verify>=0.1.4`

## Install

```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/python -m pip install --upgrade pip
.venv/bin/python -m pip install -e .
```

## Configuration

Default configuration file: [config.json](/home/brosnan/symbolic_math_mcp/symbolic_math_mcp/config.json)

```json
{
  "mcp_server_name": "My Symbolic Math MCP Server",
  "mcp_server_url": "http://localhost:8753",
  "max_requests": 10,
  "total_timeout": 600
}
```

### Notes

- `stdio://...` runs the server over stdio.
- `http://...` runs the server over FastMCP's streamable HTTP transport.
- `https://...` is accepted by the config parser and uses the HTTP transport settings. In practice, TLS is typically terminated by a reverse proxy in front of the process.

## Run

From the project directory:

```bash
.venv/bin/python run_server.py --config config.json
```

Or after installation:

```bash
symbolic-math-mcp --config config.json
```

## Tool API

### `check_symbolic_math(filename)`

- input: absolute path to a `.yaml` symbolic math file
- behavior: blocks until `verify_yaml_file(filename)` completes or times out

Successful completion:

```json
{
  "status": "Tool call completed!",
  "filename": "proof.yaml",
  "result": "Math proofs are valid"
}
```

Timeout:

```json
{
  "status": "Tool call …
