Features

🧠 Intelligent Caching Layer

Semantic Cache - Industry-first embedding-based caching for MCP servers:

  • Semantic Similarity Detection: Understands that "check system temperature" and "verify thermal status" are equivalent queries
  • Cost Optimization: 50-70% reduction in tool execution costs
  • Automatic Expiration: TTL-based cache invalidation with periodic cleanup
  • Performance Metrics: Real-time hit/miss rates, token savings, similarity scores
// Queries like these hit the same cache:
"What's the current CPU temperature?"
"Check thermal status of the system"
"Show me processor heat levels"

🎯 Smart Rate Limiting

Production-grade request management with circuit breaker pattern:

  • Per-Provider Queuing: FIFO request queues with configurable limits
  • Circuit Breaker: Automatic failure detection and recovery
  • Exponential Backoff: Intelligent retry with jitter
  • Metrics Collection: Request latency percentiles (p50, p95, p99), error categorization, queue depths
  • Prometheus Export: HTTP metrics endpoint for observability

🗄️ Knowledge Management System

Persistent learning infrastructure with advanced search:

  • SQLite + FTS5: Full-text search with Porter stemming and Unicode support

Monitoring & Observability

Prometheus Metrics

Expose metrics on HTTP endpoint:

# Start metrics server
export METRICS_PORT=9090
node build/src/index.js

# Query metrics
curl http://localhost:9090/metrics

Available metrics:

  • mcp_rate_limiter_requests_total{provider="deepseek"}
  • mcp_rate_limiter_request_duration_seconds{provider="openai"}
  • mcp_circuit_breaker_state{provider="anthropic"}
  • mcp_semantic_cache_hits_total
  • mcp_semantic_cache_tokens_saved_total

Structured Logging

Pino-based JSON logging:

{
  "level": "info",
  "time": 1704196800000,
  "msg": "Semantic cache hit",
  "similarity": 0.92,
  "toolName": "thermal_check",
  "tokensSaved": 150
}

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. Semantic cache not working

# Verify llama.cpp server is running
curl http://localhost:8080/health

# Check cache database exists
ls -lh ~/.local/share/securellm/semantic_cache.db

# Enable debug logging
export LOG_LEVEL=debug

2. Rate limiter throttling requests

# Check current queue status
# (use rate_limiter_status tool via MCP)

# Adjust rate limits in config
# See src/config/rate-limits.ts

3. Knowledge DB corruption

# Backup and rebuild
cp ~/.local/share/securellm/knowledge.db{,.backup}
rm ~/.local/share/securellm/knowledge.db
# Restart server (will recreate schema)
