## Description
Find and book verified local home service professionals through AI agents.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "hirenimbus-mcp-server": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","hirenimbus-mcp-server"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# HireNimbus home services MCP

Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) to the HireNimbus home-services marketplace. Enables provider search, review aggregation, homeowner profile retrieval, and job booking — all through natural conversation.

## Architecture

- **Runtime**: Python 3.10, FastAPI, FastMCP (`mcp` 1.26.0)
- **Transport**: Streamable HTTP at `/mcp` (rewritten from `/` for root-level MCP clients)
- **Deploy**: AWS Lambda (arm64) via SAM + Docker container image; Mangum ASGI adapter
- **Auth**: Optional OAuth2 with JWT Bearer tokens; rate limiting per IP

## Quick Start

```bash
# 1. Local secrets (gitignored — never commit)
cp local.config.example.json local.config.json
# Edit local.config.json with your values (or use .env — see .env.example)

# 2. SAM deploy overrides (ECR image URI — gitignored)
cp samconfig.local.toml.example samconfig.local.toml
# Edit samconfig.local.toml with your AWS ECR repository

# Build & deploy to AWS (local)
sam build && sam deploy --config-file samconfig.toml --config-file samconfig.local.toml

# Local development
pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn src.main:app --reload
```

GitHub Actions auto-deploy on `main` uses repository secrets (see internal deploy docs).

## Configuration

Sensitive values live in **`local.config.json`** (gitignored) or **environment variables**. Copy `local.config.example.json` → `local.config.json` and fill in your values. Env vars always take precedence.

Public defaults remain in code for shared HireNimbus API endpoints (`service.hirenimbus.com`). URLs, tokens, and credentials must be set explicitly.

| `REVIEWS_API` | Provider profile & reviews base URL |
| `BOOKING_API` | Job creation endpoint |

| `MCP_MONITOR_SLACK_CHANNEL` | Slack channel for MCP monitor events (default: `mcp-monitor`) |
| `MCP_MONITOR_SLACK_API` | Slack webhook for monitor events (defaults to `SEND_JOB_TO_SLACK_API`) |
| `OAUTH_CLIENT_ID` / `OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET` | Enable OAuth2 (both must be set) |
| `OAUTH_TOKEN_TTL` | Access token lifetime in seconds (default: 3600) |
| `RATE_LIMIT_RPM` | Requests per minute per IP (default: 60, 0 = off) |
| `PUBLIC_BASE_URL` | Canonical public URL for OAuth issuer/audience |

## MCP Tools

### Implemented

#### `search_providers`
Search for home service professionals near a location.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `query` | `string` | Yes | Service keyword — "plumber", "HVAC repair", "house cleaning" |
| `location` | `object` | Yes | One of: `{"text": "Alexandria, VA"}`, `{"zip": "22314"}`, or `{"lat": 38.8, "lng": -77.0}` |

| `limit` | `int` | No | Results count (default: 6) |

**Returns**: `providers` list (name, slug, profile_url, rating, reviews_count, highlights) + `resolved_location`.

---

#### `get_provider_details`
Full profile for a single provider — bio, services, areas, hours, FAQ, photos.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `slug` | `string` | Yes | Provider slug from `search_providers` results |

**Returns**: name, about, profile_url, profile_image_url, primary_service, services_offered, operational_areas, rating, reviews_count, hours_of_operation, faq, media_count, booking_supported.

---

#### `get_provider_reviews`
Aggregated reviews from Google, Yelp, Thumbtack, HomeAdvisor, and Nimbus.

**Returns**: `reviews` list (reviewer_name, date, rating, comment, source), `stats` (avg_rating, total_reviews), `pagination`, `profile_url`.

---

#### `get_homeowner_profile`
Returns the OAuth-linked homeowner's saved name, phone, and address. No parameters — identity comes from the JWT session.

**Returns**: `connected`, `name`, `phone`, `address`, `source`, `tool_sourced_only`.

---

#### `create_booking`
Submit a job request to a provider. Triggers instant SMS + Slack notification.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `serviceProviderSlug` | `string` | Yes | Provider slug |
| `name` | `string` | Yes | Homeowner full name |
| `phone` | `string` | Yes | Homeowner phone |

---

### Planned Tools

#### `process_payment`
Process a payment for a completed or quoted job through the Nimbus platform.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `job_id` | `string` | Yes | Job identifier from `create_booking` |
| `amount` | `number` | Yes | Payment amount in USD |
| `payment_method` | `string` | Yes | One of: `card_on_file`, `new_card`, `bank_transfer` |
| `card_token` | `string` | No | Required when `payment_method` is `new_card` |

**Expected returns**: `status` (success/pending/failed), `transaction_id`, `receipt_url`, `message`.

**Typical flow**: After a provider sends an estimate through Nimbus, the homeowner confirms the amount and the assistant processes payment via this tool. Supports saved payment methods and one-time card tokens.

---

#### `approve_invoice`
Review and approve (or reject) an invoice submitted by a service provider.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `invoice_id` | `string` | Yes | Invoice identifier |

| `notes` | `string` | No | Homeowner comments or reason for rejection |

**Expected returns**: `status`, `invoice_id`, `updated_amount`, `provider_notified`, `message`.

**Typical flow**: The assistant retrieves pending invoices for the homeowner, presents line items and totals, and lets the homeowner approve, reject, or request changes — all conversationally.

---

#### `schedule_appointment`
Book a specific date and time slot with a provider for an existing or new job.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `serviceProviderSlug` | `string` | Yes | Provider slug |

| `notes` | `string` | No | Special instructions (access codes, pet info, etc.) |

**Expected returns**: `status` (confirmed/pending_provider), `appointment_id`, `confirmed_datetime`, `provider_notified`, `message`.

**Typical flow**: After booking a job, the homeowner asks "Can I get this done Friday morning?" — the assistant checks provider availability and locks in a time slot, notifying both parties.

  -> get_provider_details(slug="...")

User: "What do people say about them?"
  -> get_provider_reviews(slug="...")

User: "Book them for a leaking faucet"
  -> get_homeowner_profile()          # load saved name/phone/address
  -> [confirm with user]
  -> create_booking(...)              # submit job + notify provider

User: "Schedule it for Friday morning"
  -> schedule_appointment(...)        # (planned)

User: "They sent an invoice — looks good, approve it"
  -> approve_invoice(...)             # (planned)
