## 1. System Overview
### 1.1 Design Philosophy
PMAT represents a paradigm shift in automated code quality enforcement, implementing the Toyota Production System principles through rigorous static analysis and deterministic transformations:
- **Kaizen (改善)**: Iterative refinement through file-by-file analysis with measurable ΔQ metrics
- **Genchi Genbutsu (現地現物)**: Direct AST traversal via tree-sitter and syn parsers, no heuristics
- **Jidoka (自働化)**: Automated quality gates with fail-fast semantics (exit code 1 on violation)
- **Zero SATD Policy**: Compile-time enforcement via `compile_error_if!(satd_count > 0)`
- **Deterministic Execution**: Fixed seed 42 for reproducible PDMT generation across CI runs
- **Binary Distribution**: Single 15MB static binary with embedded assets via include_bytes!
### 1.2 Core Capabilities

### 1.4 Performance Characteristics
```rust
// Measured on AMD Ryzen 9 5950X, 32GB DDR4-3600
pub struct PerformanceProfile {
// Startup latency (cold JIT disabled, hot with mmap'd cache)
startup_cold: Duration::from_millis(127), // dominated by tree-sitter init
startup_hot: Duration::from_millis(4), // mmap'd grammar cache
// Analysis throughput (single-threaded, rayon parallel)
loc_per_sec_st: 487_000, // Rust AST via syn 2.0
loc_per_sec_mt: 3_921_000, // 16-core saturation
// Memory usage (RSS, includes mmap'd regions)
base_rss: ByteSize::mb(47), // Parser grammars + runtime
per_kloc: ByteSize::kb(312), // AST + symbol tables
// Cache performance (L1/L2/L3 hit rates via perf)
l1_hit_rate: 0.973, // String interning effective
l2_hit_rate: 0.891, // AST node locality
l3_hit_rate: 0.724, // Cross-file analysis
// SIMD utilization (via vectorized analysis paths)
simd_coverage: 0.43, // 43% of hot paths vectorized
avx2_speedup: 2.7, // vs scalar on similarity
}
```
## 2. Service Architecture
### 2.1 Service Layer Design
```rust
// Core service trait - all services implement this
pub trait Service: Send + Sync {
type Input: Serialize + DeserializeOwned;
type Output: Serialize + DeserializeOwned;
type Error: std::error::Error;
async fn process(&self, input: Self::Input) -> Result<Self::Output, Self::Error>;
fn validate_input(&self, input: &Self::Input) -> Result<(), ValidationError> {
// Default validation
Ok(())
}
fn metrics(&self) -> ServiceMetrics {
ServiceMetrics::default()
}
}
// Service registry for dependency injection
pub struct ServiceRegistry {
services: DashMap<TypeId, Arc<dyn Any + Send + Sync>>,
}
impl ServiceRegistry {
pub fn register<S: Service + 'static>(&self, service: S) {
let id = TypeId::of::<S>();
self.services.insert(id, Arc::new(service));
}
pub fn get<S: Service + 'static>(&self) -> Option<Arc<S>> {
let id = TypeId::of::<S>();
self.services.get(&id)
.and_then(|s| s.clone().downcast::<S>().ok())
}
}
```
### 2.2 Service Composition
```rust
// Services can be composed for complex operations
pub struct CompositeService<A: Service, B: Service> {
first: A,
second: B,
adapter: fn(A::Output) -> B::Input,
}
impl<A, B> Service for CompositeService<A, B>
where
A: Service,
B: Service,
A::Error: Into<B::Error>,
{
type Input = A::Input;
type Output = B::Output;
type Error = B::Error;
async fn process(&self, input: Self::Input) -> Result<Self::Output, Self::Error> {
let intermediate = self.first.process(input)
.await
.map_err(Into::into)?;
let adapted = (self.adapter)(intermediate);
self.second.process(adapted).await
}
}
```
## 3. Unified Protocol Design
### 3.1 Protocol Abstraction
```rust
// Single protocol implementation used by all interfaces
pub trait ProtocolAdapter: Send + Sync {
type Request: DeserializeOwned;
type Response: Serialize;
fn decode(&self, raw: &[u8]) -> Result<UnifiedRequest, ProtocolError>;
fn encode(&self, response: UnifiedResponse) -> Result<Vec<u8>, ProtocolError>;
async fn handle(&self, request: Self::Request) -> Self::Response;
}
// Unified request/response for all protocols
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]
pub struct UnifiedRequest {
pub operation: Operation,
pub params: Value,
pub context: RequestContext,
}
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]
pub struct UnifiedResponse {
pub result: Option<Value>,
pub error: Option<ErrorInfo>,
pub metadata: ResponseMetadata,
}
// All operations go through this enum
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize)]
#[serde(tag = "type", rename_all = "snake_case")]
pub enum Operation {
// Analysis
AnalyzeComplexity(ComplexityParams),
AnalyzeSatd(SatdParams),
AnalyzeDeadCode(DeadCodeParams),
GenerateContext(ContextParams),
// Quality
QualityGate(QualityGateParams),
QualityProxy(QualityProxyParams),
// Refactoring
RefactorStart(RefactorStartParams),
RefactorNext(RefactorNextParams),
RefactorStop(RefactorStopParams),
// Scaffolding
ScaffoldProject(ProjectParams),
ScaffoldAgent(AgentParams),
// PDMT
PdmtTodos(PdmtParams),
}
```
### 3.2 Protocol Implementations
```rust
// MCP Adapter
pub struct McpAdapter;
impl ProtocolAdapter for McpAdapter {
type Request = JsonRpcRequest;
type Response = JsonRpcResponse;
fn decode(&self, raw: &[u8]) -> Result<UnifiedRequest, ProtocolError> {
let json_rpc: JsonRpcRequest = serde_json::from_slice(raw)?;
// Map JSON-RPC method to Operation
let operation = match json_rpc.method.as_str() {
"analyze_complexity" => {
let params = serde_json::from_value(json_rpc.params)?;
Operation::AnalyzeComplexity(params)
}
// ... other mappings
_ => return Err(ProtocolError::UnknownMethod(json_rpc.method)),
};
Ok(UnifiedRequest {
operation,
params: json_rpc.params,
context: RequestContext::from_json_rpc(&json_rpc),
})
}
fn encode(&self, response: UnifiedResponse) -> Result<Vec<u8>, ProtocolError> {
let json_rpc = JsonRpcResponse {
jsonrpc: "2.0".to_string(),
result: response.result,
error: response.error.map(Into::into),
id: response.metadata.request_id,
};
Ok(serde_json::to_vec(&json_rpc)?)
}
}
// HTTP Adapter
pub struct HttpAdapter;
impl ProtocolAdapter for HttpAdapter {
type Request = HttpRequest;
type Response = HttpResponse;
fn decode(&self, raw: &[u8]) -> Result<UnifiedRequest, ProtocolError> {
// Parse HTTP request and extract operation from path/method
let request = parse_http_request(raw)?;
let operation = route_to_operation(&request.path, &request.method)?;
Ok(UnifiedRequest {
operation,
params: request.body,
context: RequestContext::from_http(&request),
})
}
fn encode(&self, response: UnifiedResponse) -> Result<Vec<u8>, ProtocolError> {
let status = if response.error.is_some() {
StatusCode::BAD_REQUEST
} else {
StatusCode::OK
};
let body = serde_json::to_vec(&response)?;
Ok(format!(
"HTTP/1.1 {}\r\nContent-Type: application/json\r\nContent-Length: {}\r\n\r\n",
status,
body.len()
).into_bytes())
}
}
```
## 4. MCP Implementation
### 4.1 Unified MCP Server Architecture
```rust
// Single MCP server using pmcp SDK 1.2.0 with 10x performance improvement
pub struct UnifiedMcpServer {
server: pmcp::Server,
tools: Arc<[Box<dyn Tool>; 18]>, // Fixed-size tool array
registry: Arc<ServiceRegistry>, // Thread-safe service locator
transport: TransportMultiplexer, // stdio|websocket|http-sse
}
impl UnifiedMcpServer {
pub fn new() -> Result<Self, Error> {
let server = pmcp::Server::builder()
.name("pmat")
.version(env!("CARGO_PKG_VERSION"))
.capabilities(ServerCapabilities {
tools: ToolsCapability {
supports_progress: true,
supports_cancellation: true,
},
resources: ResourcesCapability::default(),
prompts: PromptsCapability::default(),
})
.build()?;
// Tool registration with compile-time validation
let tools: Arc<[Box<dyn Tool>; 18]> = Arc::new([
Box::new(ComplexityTool::new()), // O(n) AST traversal
Box::new(SatdTool::new()), // Regex-based, 14 patterns
Box::new(DeadCodeTool::new()), // Graph reachability
Box::new(ContextTool::new()), // Multi-dimensional analysis
Box::new(QualityGateTool::new()), // Composite validation
Box::new(QualityProxyTool::new()), // AI code interceptor
Box::new(RefactorStartTool::new()), // State machine init
Box::new(RefactorNextTool::new()), // State transitions
Box::new(RefactorStateTool::new()), // State query
Box::new(RefactorStopTool::new()), // Cleanup & persist
Box::new(ScaffoldProjectTool::new()), // Template expansion
Box::new(ScaffoldAgentTool::new()), // MCP agent generation
Box::new(PdmtTodosTool::new()), // Deterministic todos
Box::new(GitHubCreateTool::new()), // Issue creation
Box::new(GitHubReadTool::new()), // Issue parsing
Box::new(GitHubListTool::new()), // Issue enumeration
Box::new(ChurnTool::new()), // Git history analysis
Box::new(DagTool::new()), // Dependency graphs
]);
for tool in tools.iter() {
server.register_tool(tool.clone())?;
}
Ok(Self {
server,
tools,
registry: Arc::new(ServiceRegistry::new()),
transport: TransportMultiplexer::auto_detect(),
})
}
pub async fn run(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error> {
// Transport auto-detection with fallback chain
let transport = match std::env::var("MCP_TRANSPORT").as_deref() {
Ok("websocket") => Transport::WebSocket(
TcpListener::bind("127.0.0.1:8080").await?
),
Ok("http-sse") => Transport::HttpSse(
hyper::Server::bind(&([127, 0, 0, 1], 8081).into())
),
_ if !atty::is(atty::Stream::Stdin) => Transport::Stdio,
_ => Transport::Stdio, // Default fallback
};
// Run with graceful shutdown
let shutdown = tokio::signal::ctrl_c();
tokio::select! {
result = self.server.run(transport) => result,
_ = shutdown => {
info!("Graceful shutdown initiated");
Ok(())
}
}
}
}
```
### 4.2 Tool Implementation Pattern
```rust
// Standard pattern for all MCP tools
pub struct ComplexityTool {
service: Arc<CodeAnalysisService>,
}
#[async_trait]
impl Tool for ComplexityTool {
fn name(&self) -> &str {
"analyze_complexity"
}
fn description(&self) -> &str {
"Analyze code complexity with cyclomatic, cognitive, and Big-O metrics"
}
fn input_schema(&self) -> Value {
json!({
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"path": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Path to analyze"
},
"top_files": {
"type": "integer",
"description": "Number of top files to return"
},
"include": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Include pattern (glob)"
},
"exclude": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Exclude pattern (glob)"
}
},
"required": ["path"]
})
}
async fn run(&self, params: Value) -> Result<Value, ToolError> {
let input: ComplexityParams = serde_json::from_value(params)?;
// Validate input
self.validate_params(&input)?;
// Call service
let result = self.service.analyze_complexity(input).await
.map_err(|e| ToolError::ExecutionFailed(e.to_string()))?;
// Return structured result
Ok(serde_json::to_value(result)?)
}
}
```
## 5. Transport Layer
### 5.1 Transport Abstraction
```rust
#[async_trait]
pub trait TransportAdapter: Send + Sync {
async fn read(&mut self) -> Result<Vec<u8>, TransportError>;
async fn write(&mut self, data: &[u8]) -> Result<(), TransportError>;
async fn close(&mut self) -> Result<(), TransportError>;
}
// Stdio transport for CLI tools
pub struct StdioTransportAdapter {
stdin: BufReader<Stdin>,
stdout: Stdout,
}
#[async_trait]
impl TransportAdapter for StdioTransportAdapter {
async fn read(&mut self) -> Result<Vec<u8>, TransportError> {
let mut line = String::new();
self.stdin.read_line(&mut line).await?;
// Handle Content-Length header for LSP-style messages
if line.starts_with("Content-Length:") {
let len = parse_content_length(&line)?;
let mut buffer = vec![0u8; len];
self.stdin.read_exact(&mut buffer).await?;
Ok(buffer)
} else {
Ok(line.into_bytes())
}
}
async fn write(&mut self, data: &[u8]) -> Result<(), TransportError> {
// Write with Content-Length header
let header = format!("Content-Length: {}\r\n\r\n", data.len());
self.stdout.write_all(header.as_bytes()).await?;
self.stdout.write_all(data).await?;
self.stdout.flush().await?;
Ok(())
}
}
// WebSocket transport for browser clients
pub struct WebSocketTransportAdapter {
socket: WebSocketStream<TcpStream>,
}
#[async_trait]
impl TransportAdapter for WebSocketTransportAdapter {
async fn read(&mut self) -> Result<Vec<u8>, TransportError> {
match self.socket.next().await {
Some(Ok(Message::Text(text))) => Ok(text.into_bytes()),
Some(Ok(Message::Binary(bin))) => Ok(bin),
_ => Err(TransportError::ConnectionClosed),
}
}
async fn write(&mut self, data: &[u8]) -> Result<(), TransportError> {
let msg = Message::Text(String::from_utf8_lossy(data).to_string());
self.socket.send(msg).await?;
Ok(())
}
}
```
## 6. Code Analysis Service
### 6.1 Core Analysis Engine
```rust
pub struct CodeAnalysisService {
parser: LanguageParser,
analyzer: MetricsAnalyzer,
cache: DashMap<PathBuf, AnalysisResult>,
}
impl CodeAnalysisService {
pub async fn analyze(&self, path: &Path) -> Result<AnalysisResult, Error> {
// Check cache first
if let Some(cached) = self.cache.get(path) {
if cached.is_fresh() {
return Ok(cached.clone());
}
}
// Parse source code
let source = tokio::fs::read_to_string(path).await?;
let ast = self.parser.parse(&source, path)?;
// Run all analyzers in parallel
let (complexity, satd, dead_code, big_o) = tokio::join!(
self.analyze_complexity_internal(&ast),
self.analyze_satd_internal(&source),
self.analyze_dead_code_internal(&ast),
self.analyze_big_o_internal(&ast),
);
let result = AnalysisResult {
path: path.to_path_buf(),
complexity: complexity?,
satd: satd?,
dead_code: dead_code?,
big_o: big_o?,
timestamp: Instant::now(),
};
// Update cache
self.cache.insert(path.to_path_buf(), result.clone());
Ok(result)
}
}
```

## 7. Complexity Analysis
### 7.1 Cyclomatic Complexity Implementation
```rust
