# Configuration Management - MCP Tool Specification

This document outlines the specification for tools within the Configuration Management module that are intended to be integrated with the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

## Current Status: No MCP Tools Defined

The Configuration Management module provides configuration management, validation, and deployment capabilities for internal use by other Codomyrmex modules, including loading and merging configuration from multiple sources, schema-based validation, secure secret management and rotation, configuration deployment to target environments, change monitoring and drift detection, configuration documentation generation, backup and restore, and compliance auditing. These functions are primarily for programmatic integration within the application lifecycle and are not suited for exposure as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools.

MCP tools are typically designed for discrete, invocable actions or queries that an external agent (like an LLM) would trigger. The internal configuration management mechanisms do not fit this paradigm.

If future enhancements to this module introduce features that are appropriate for MCP (e.g., validating a configuration file against its schema, or querying the current configuration state for a specific key), this document will be updated accordingly.

For details on how to use the config_management functionalities within your Python code, please refer to the module's `README.md` and `API_SPECIFICATION.md`.
