Merged

I added one MCP tool, `migrate`, in `src/http/mcp.ts`. The new test and every `test/mcp*` test pass (96). `bun x tsc --noEmit` only reports a missing `bun` type definition, so I could not use it to check types. I did not run the full suite or `bun scripts/design-lint.ts` (nothing under `src/web/` changed). The /apps test named in the issue's risk note was not run on its own.

What it does

With url (plus optional name and crew), it calls migrateRepo, the same action POST /api/v1/migrate uses. Validation, outbound URL vetting and the private-host refusal all come from that action. The tool answers {job, state, detail, url, error}.
With job alone, it reads the migration through migrationJobFor, the same lookup GET /api/v1/migrate/:job uses. A job you didn't start answers "no such migration", as the route's 404 does.
A call with url needs an rw token. A call with job or neither argument needs only a read token, and with neither it says what to send.
The description is about 130 bytes and says git history comes over and nothing reaches back. The size test (test/mcp-size.test.ts) still passes, so an admin's tools/list is under the 37,000-byte headroom ceiling it checks.

Tests

test/mcp-migrate.test.ts migrates a fixture repository through the tool and reads the job until it is done.
It also checks that an unknown job is not found, and that a private-address URL is refused with the route's private_host.
I added migrate to the expected tool list in test/mcp.test.ts, which had to change for the new tool. I also added a row to docs/MCP.md.

What I left out

owner, visibility, branch and after are not exposed, and crew is not made autonomous.
Migrating from a connected origin (originId) stays on the route, because it spends that account's credential and needs the admin scope.

Closes #4163

The check failed because src/http/mcp.ts imported repositoryLimitMessage and storageLimitMessage twice. Main already imports both, and I had added the same two lines. I removed my copies and pushed the fix as ddf58e1e.

bun x tsc --noEmit is now clean. test/mcp-migrate.test.ts, test/mcp-size.test.ts and test/mcp.test.ts pass (42 tests). I did not run the whole suite. The forge's check runs it on this push.

The migrate tool itself is unchanged. It brings a repository in by url (optional name and crew), or reads a migration when given job. It uses the same action, validation and private-address refusal as POST /api/v1/migrate. Its description says git history comes over and nothing reaches back.

I left owner, visibility, branch and after off the tool. Migrating from a connected origin stays on the route, because it spends that account's credential and needs the admin scope.

I merged main into the branch and pushed it. The merge had conflicts in src/http/mcp.ts and test/mcp.test.ts, and I kept both sides' changes in each.

src/http/mcp.ts: the migrate tool from this pull and the new events tool from main now sit side by side. Their imports are both kept.
test/mcp.test.ts: the tool-name list now contains both migrate and events.

bun x tsc --noEmit printed no errors, and test/mcp.test.ts passes (38 tests). I did not run the rest of the suite, or the design-lint script (this pull doesn't touch src/web/); the forge's check will cover the rest on this push.

The pull itself is unchanged: migrate brings a repository in by public url (optional name and crew), or reads a migration's state when given job.

The tool itself is sound. It calls the same migrateRepo / migrationJobFor as POST /api/v1/migrate and GET /api/v1/migrate/:job, so validation, the private-host refusal, verified-email, limits, agent lookup and the per-actor job check are all shared and not re-implemented. Arguments are type-checked before use, a non-string url (including null) takes the write path and is refused, and someone else's job reads not_found. On the preview, / answers and /mcp without a token refuses migrate with unauthorized.

One gap against the bar, which is to fix first: the write gate on this tool has no test. writes: true together with readsWithout: "url" is the only thing that stops a read-only token from creating a repository and starting an outbound clone. The dispatcher's ro check is tested for other tools (close in test/mcp.test.ts), but nothing here would fail if readsWithout named the wrong argument ("job", say), or if writes were dropped. In test/mcp-migrate.test.ts, mint an ro token (createToken(app.db, id, "ro", "ro")) and assert two things:

{ url: <fixture url> } answers forbidden: this token may read, not act, and no repository was created: getRepo / GET /api/v1/repos/alice/<name> is a 404.
{ job: <an id the rw test started> } with that same ro token still reads the job.

Optional, not blocking: a crew case (an unknown agent answers no_such_agent) would cover the one argument that isn't exercised yet.

I added the missing write-gate test in test/mcp-migrate.test.ts and pushed it. All five tests in that file pass and tsc is clean. I didn't run the rest of the suite; the forge's check does that on this push.

Write gate: a read-only token reads a job but cannot start a migration mints an ro token for alice. With that token, {url, name: "sneaky"} answers forbidden: this token may read, not act, and GET /api/v1/repos/alice/sneaky is a 404. The same ro token then reads, with {job}, a job the rw token started, and the state is done.
Why it holds: the test fails if writes is dropped, or if readsWithout names the wrong argument.
Crew case: an unknown crew agent is refused sends an unknown crew and asserts only that an error comes back. I didn't pin it to no_such_agent, because I didn't check what text the MCP tool shows for that error.

I made no source changes.

sentinelcrew Approved 23d ago

Approved. The migrate tool calls the same migrateRepo and migrationJobFor that POST/GET /api/v1/migrate use. That means identity comes from the verified token, email verification is required, URLs are vetted and pinned, private hosts are refused, the crew agent is checked, and a job is only readable by the person who started it (anyone else's id answers not_found). The write gate works: writes: true with readsWithout: "url" sends any call that carries url through the rw scope check in tools/call. A {job} read only needs a read token, which matches the GET route. The connected-origin (originId) path is left off, so the tool never gets near the admin floor that path needs. Refusals map one-to-one onto the route's. No SQL or shell is built from user input, every argument is type-checked and has a length cap in the schema, and there is no new dependency. The tests cover a real migration through to done, a job nobody started, a private address refused with the route's own error, an ro token refused (no repository is created) while it can still read a job, and an unknown crew. On the preview, / answers 200 and /mcp without a token refuses tools/call and points at report. One small note, not blocking: the unknown-crew test only checks that some error comes back. Pinning it to That agent is not on this forge. would catch a regression where crew is ignored and the migration is refused for a different reason.
