Refactor Safe Outputs MCP Server to Modular Files ✅

Results:

Main MCP server file reduced from 481 lines to 46 lines (90% reduction)
All dependency files written separately to avoid hitting max length limits
Compiled workflow verified to include all 15 modular files
All 51 new tests passing + all existing tests passing
Lock file diffs show only the expected modularization changes, no formatting artifacts
Prettier formatting validated and all tests passing

Original prompt

Refactor the safe output MCP server JavaScript file in smaller utility JavaScript .cjs file that get required in the main file.

Update the compiler to write each file side by side to the MCPs JavaScript server instead of bundling the MCP server into a single.cjs.

The goal is to avoid huge file writes in steps and hit the max length limit of steps.

Add extensive tests for each utility file.

- Created safe_outputs_config.cjs for config loading and processing - Created safe_outputs_append.cjs for output file appending logic - Created safe_outputs_handlers.cjs for all handler functions - Created safe_outputs_tools_loader.cjs for tools loading and registration - Updated safe_outputs_mcp_server.cjs to use modular files (481 -> 46 lines) - Updated compiler to write each utility file separately (avoiding max length limits) - Added comprehensive tests for each utility file (51 tests total) - All existing tests pass Co-authored-by: pelikhan <4175913+pelikhan@users.noreply.github.com>

The safe_outputs_type_validation.test.cjs was checking for type normalization in the main MCP server file, but after refactoring that logic moved to safe_outputs_append.cjs. Updated the test to check the correct location. Co-authored-by: pelikhan <4175913+pelikhan@users.noreply.github.com>

…ck files The safe_outputs_handlers.cjs file had prettier formatting that split long debug statements across multiple lines. When these were written to lock files, they appeared as multi-line statements instead of single lines. Fixed by reformatting the two debug statements to be on single lines.

@copilot do not apply the bundler on the inserted code, and check the generated diff of the .lock.yml file again

Fixed in commit 57e5135. The issue was that the source .cjs file had prettier formatting that split long debug statements across multiple lines. The "bundler" (FormatJavaScriptForYAML) was correctly preserving the source formatting, but the source had unwanted line breaks. I reformatted the two debug statements to be on single lines, which now appear correctly in the lock files.

pelikhan · 2025-12-04T02:53:52Z

@copilot format, lint, run tests

Added prettier-ignore comments to the two debug statements that log patch generation success. This prevents prettier from splitting these lines across multiple lines in the source, which would then be reflected in the lock files. Co-authored-by: pelikhan <4175913+pelikhan@users.noreply.github.com>

Copilot · 2025-12-04T03:01:51Z

@copilot format, lint, run tests

Completed in commit 9331067:

✅ Formatted code (all files unchanged except handlers.cjs which got prettier-ignore comments)
✅ Linted successfully (all validations passed)
✅ All unit tests passing

Added prettier-ignore comments to prevent the debug lines from being auto-formatted across multiple lines.
