Enhanced Error Handling and Recovery #19
Description
Priority: P1 - High Priority
Description:
Implement comprehensive error handling, recovery mechanisms, and graceful degradation across the MCP server to improve production reliability.
Requirements:
Error Classification:
- Categorize errors by severity and recoverability
- Define error codes and standardized error responses
- Implement error context and tracing
- Add structured logging for debugging
Recovery Mechanisms:
- Graceful degradation when parsers fail
- Partial results for large repository timeouts
- Retry logic for transient failures
- Circuit breaker patterns for external resources
MCP Protocol Compliance:
- Proper JSON-RPC 2.0 error responses
- Error propagation through tool chains
- Request cancellation handling improvements
- Client-friendly error messages
Monitoring and Observability:
- Metrics collection for error rates
- Health check endpoints
- Performance monitoring
- Resource usage tracking
Acceptance Criteria:
- No unhandled panics in production scenarios
- All error paths properly tested
- Client receives actionable error messages
- System remains stable under error conditions
Estimated Timeline: 1-2 weeks
