ironav-cli 0.1.4

Command-line front end for IronAV: every command prints one JSON envelope on stdout and exits non-zero on error.
//! Minimal Model Context Protocol server over stdio (newline-delimited JSON-RPC 2.0).
//! Tools come from the shared registry; the ontology and tool schemas are also exposed as
//! resources so clients can load them into context without a tool call.
//!
//! The process stays resident, so an agent pays process-start and registry-build costs once
//! instead of on every conversion. Each tool call runs on its own thread, so a long `run` or
//! `analyze` does not hold up other requests; it reports progress when the request carries a
//! `progressToken` and stops when the client sends `notifications/cancelled`.

Limits set by the operator: files are read and written only under the server's working directory (or the directories in IRONAV_ROOTS); a path outside them is refused with a permission-denied error that names IRONAV_ROOTS. \
