znetsixe 6e6699c763 tools: add physics-sanity + Docker MCP scaffolding + tools/README
- tools/physics-sanity/ — JS library of cross-node balance helpers
  (mass / hydraulic / hydraulic-power / oxygen-transfer / energy) with
  7 unit tests + a CLI demo. Designed for `require()` from per-node
  integration tests where shape-based unit tests miss physically-
  impossible plant states.
- tools/docker-compose.yml + tools/mcp/{node-red-admin,influxdb,browser}
  scaffolding — placeholder Dockerfiles + a ROADMAP.md for the Node-RED
  admin MCP. Compose file is the target shape for the Q3-2026 migration
  to the central MCP server; the per-service Dockerfile stays in this
  repo as the canonical definition either way. Implementations are TODO.
- tools/README.md — top-level tooling index; documents the CI order for
  running every tool on a PR.
- .gitignore: ignore tools/.env (developer-specific MCP endpoints).

# EVOLV tooling (`tools/`)
Repo-local tools and MCP services for EVOLV development. All Node.js
native (no Python toolchain). Each tool encodes a rule that we've
previously discovered through a bug; skipping them re-opens those bugs.
See `CLAUDE.md` § "Tooling (Docker-first, local now, central later)"
for the operating doctrine.
## Tools (CLI)
| Tool | Path | What it does | Run |
|---|---|---|---|
| `contract-verify` | `tools/contract-verify/` | Diffs `nodes/<n>/CONTRACT.md` topic table vs `src/commands/index.js` | `node tools/contract-verify/bin/contract-verify.js` |
| `flow-lint` | `tools/flow-lint/` | Lints `examples/*.flow.json` against the flow-layout rule | `node tools/flow-lint/bin/flow-lint.js` |
| `wiki-gen` | `tools/wiki-gen/` | Regenerates AUTOGEN topic-contract blocks in per-node wikis | `node tools/wiki-gen/bin/wiki-gen.js` |
| `output-manifest-verify` | `tools/output-manifest-verify/` | Enforces the output-coverage manifest rule | `node tools/output-manifest-verify/bin/output-manifest-verify.js` |
| `physics-sanity` | `tools/physics-sanity/` | Library of cross-node balance helpers; import from tests | `require('../../tools/physics-sanity')` |
CI-friendly: every tool accepts `--json` (JSON output) and exits non-zero
on findings.
## MCP services (Docker)
See `tools/mcp/README.md`. Three services scaffolded:
| Service | Purpose | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `mcp-node-red-admin` | Wraps Node-RED admin HTTP API | TODO (scaffold) |
| `mcp-influxdb` | Telemetry query + assertion | TODO (scaffold) |
| `mcp-browser` | Headless Playwright against the dashboard | TODO (scaffold) |
Start (once impls land):
```bash
cd tools && docker compose --profile mcp up -d
```
## CI integration
Recommended order on every PR:
```bash
node tools/contract-verify/bin/contract-verify.js # 1. CONTRACT vs registry
node tools/flow-lint/bin/flow-lint.js # 2. Flow JSON shapes
node tools/wiki-gen/bin/wiki-gen.js --check # 3. Wiki AUTOGEN blocks
node tools/output-manifest-verify/bin/output-manifest-verify.js # 4. Manifest coverage
```
Each is fast (<1 s on the whole repo).
## Adding a new tool
1. `tools/<name>/package.json` with a `bin` entry.
2. `tools/<name>/bin/<name>.js` — must accept `--json` and exit 1 on drift.
3. `tools/<name>/README.md` — one-page docs.
4. Add a row to this README + a row to `CLAUDE.md` § Tooling.
5. Wire into the CI snippet above.
