feat: add multi-project support with scope enforcement

[LongSunnyDay]

Summary

This PR adds multi-project support to the MCP tools, allowing multiple codebases to coexist in the same Memgraph database without interference.

New MCP Tools

• list_projects - List all indexed projects (scoped to current project by default)
• delete_project - Remove a specific project while preserving others
• wipe_database - Complete database clear (disabled in scoped mode for safety)

Key Changes

• index_repository now only clears the current project's data, preserving other projects
• Project isolation via qualified_name prefix matching
• Scope enforcement (enabled by default) prevents accidental cross-project access

Scope Enforcement

Tool	With Scope (default)	Without Scope
list_projects	Only shows current project	Shows all projects
delete_project	Only allows current project	Allows any project
wipe_database	Blocked	Requires confirm=true

Files Changed

• constants.py - Added MCPToolName, MCPParamName, MCPSchemaType entries
• logs.py - Added log constants for new operations
• tool_descriptions.py - Added tool and param descriptions
• types_defs.py - Added ListProjectsResultDict, DeleteProjectResultDict
• graph_service.py - Added list_projects(), delete_project() methods
• mcp/tools.py - Added new tools with scope enforcement

Testing

All tests pass:

• ✓ Multi-project indexing preserves existing projects
• ✓ Project deletion only removes targeted project
• ✓ Scope enforcement blocks cross-project access
• ✓ wipe_database blocked in scoped mode

Related

Based on PR #178 by @PatD42, refactored to comply with project coding standards.

Test plan

• Run pre-commit hooks
• Test list_projects returns correct projects
• Test delete_project only deletes specified project
• Test index_repository preserves other projects
• Test scope enforcement blocks cross-project access
• Test wipe_database is blocked in scoped mode

Summary of Changes

Hello @LongSunnyDay, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances the MCP tools by integrating comprehensive multi-project support. It allows for the seamless management of multiple distinct codebases within a single Memgraph instance, ensuring data integrity and preventing conflicts. Key to this is the introduction of new project-management tools and a robust scope enforcement mechanism that isolates project data and restricts operations to the current project by default, thereby improving safety and usability.

Highlights

• Multi-Project Support: Introduces the ability for multiple codebases to coexist within the same Memgraph database without interference.
• New MCP Tools: Adds list_projects to view indexed projects, delete_project to remove a specific project, and wipe_database for a complete database clear (with safety measures).
• Scoped Indexing: The index_repository tool now intelligently clears only the data relevant to the current project, preserving other indexed projects.
• Project Isolation & Scope Enforcement: Implements isolation via qualified_name prefix matching and enforces scope by default, preventing accidental cross-project data access or modification.

Code Review

This pull request effectively introduces multi-project support with a strong emphasis on safety through scope enforcement. The new tools (list_projects, delete_project, wipe_database) are well-designed, incorporating crucial safety checks for destructive actions. The modification of index_repository to operate on a per-project basis is a significant enhancement. The changes are consistently applied across the codebase, including constants, logging, type definitions, and services. I have one suggestion to improve code clarity and remove a minor redundancy.

Thanks @LongSunnyDay ! I'm a bit overloaded at work and didn't had time to adapt to comments guidelines.

Greptile Summary

added multi-project support by introducing three new MCP tools (list_projects, delete_project, wipe_database) with scope enforcement enabled by default

Key Changes:

• index_repository now calls delete_project() instead of clean_database(), preserving other indexed projects
• scope enforcement (default true) restricts list_projects to current project only, blocks delete_project from accessing other projects, and disables wipe_database entirely
• new methods in MemgraphIngestor: list_projects() queries all Project nodes, delete_project() removes nodes by qualified_name prefix matching

Critical Issues:

• delete_project() query orphans nodes (codebase_rag/services/graph_service.py:174-184): File and Folder nodes lack qualified_name property and won't match the STARTS WITH filter, leaving them in the database after project deletion. requires graph traversal approach to delete all connected nodes
• test assertions outdated (test_mcp_query_and_index.py:360-363): still checks clean_database.call_count but should verify delete_project is called with correct project names

Architecture:

• follows project coding standards: constants in constants.py, logs in logs.py, TypedDicts in types_defs.py, descriptions in tool_descriptions.py
• enforce_scope parameter added to MCPToolsRegistry.__init__() with default True
• current_project derived from Path(project_root).resolve().name

Confidence Score: 2/5

• unsafe to merge - critical data loss bug in delete_project orphans structural nodes
• the delete_project() implementation has a critical logical flaw where it only deletes nodes with qualified_name property, missing File and Folder nodes that use path instead. this will leave orphaned nodes in the database, causing data pollution across projects. the test suite also needs updates to verify the new behavior. the scope enforcement and other additions are well-structured, but the core deletion logic must be fixed before merging
• codebase_rag/services/graph_service.py requires immediate fix to delete_project query (use graph traversal), codebase_rag/tests/test_mcp_query_and_index.py needs test assertion updates

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
codebase_rag/constants.py	added new MCP tool names, param names, and schema type (BOOLEAN) for multi-project support - clean additions
codebase_rag/types_defs.py	added ListProjectsResultDict and DeleteProjectResultDict TypedDicts with proper fields, updated MCPResultType union
codebase_rag/services/graph_service.py	added list_projects() and delete_project() methods - critical bug: delete_project orphans File/Folder nodes lacking qualified_name
codebase_rag/mcp/tools.py	added 3 new MCP tools with scope enforcement, changed index_repository to use delete_project instead of clean_database - preserves multi-project data

Additional Comments (3)

1. codebase_rag/services/graph_service.py, line 179 (link)

   logic: query misses nodes without qualified_name property

   nodes with missing qualified_name won't match the STARTS WITH filter and will be orphaned. File, Folder, and similar structural nodes may lack this property. use EXISTS(n.qualified_name) to check property existence

2. codebase_rag/tests/test_mcp_query_and_index.py, line 360-363 (link)

   logic: test assertions outdated

   index_repository now calls delete_project instead of clean_database. update assertions to verify delete_project is called with correct project names

3. codebase_rag/services/graph_service.py, line 174-184 (link)

   logic: incomplete project deletion - File and Folder nodes orphaned

   Folder and File nodes lack qualified_name property (only have path/name), so the STARTS WITH filter won't match them. only nodes with qualified_name and the Project node itself are deleted

   use graph traversal to delete all nodes reachable from the project:

Hi @LongSunnyDay,

Thanks for this PR! We've just merged PR #233 which implements the core multi-project support functionality:

What's now in main:

• list_projects - List all indexed projects
• delete_project - Remove a specific project (uses graph traversal to properly delete File/Folder nodes)
• wipe_database - Complete database clear with confirm=true safeguard
• index_repository - Now only clears current project's data
• Integration tests for multi-project isolation
• CYPHER_DEFAULT_LIMIT constant for query limits

Regarding scope enforcement (the unique part of this PR):

We're considering whether scope enforcement adds enough value to justify the complexity. Some concerns:

1. Limits legitimate use cases - Users can't manage multiple projects from one MCP session
2. Confusing UX - list_projects showing only 1 project when multiple exist is misleading
3. Redundant safeguards - delete_project already requires exact name match, wipe_database already requires confirm=true
4. Extra complexity - More code paths, parameters, and tests to maintain

Do you still see value in the scope enforcement feature given these concerns? If so, what use cases do you have in mind where the existing safeguards wouldn't be sufficient?

If not, we can close this PR as superseded by #233.
