ADAPTIVE MCP ORCHESTRATOR / CURRENT PROOF
Private reference implementation

A cognitive dispatcher, presented with honest boundaries.

This project is a complete teaching and reference implementation of capability-based routing, provider fallback, learning signals and observability. It is not presented as an active production service or as the estate's current universal MCP router.

Reference architecture

Route, observe, learn

task + required capabilities
-> capability registry
-> candidate tools and providers
-> weighted selection and fallback
-> execution result
-> structured logs and metrics
-> optional learning feedback

Supporting surfaces:
- FastAPI dashboard and SSE
- Prometheus, Grafana and Loki
- LanceDB vector similarity
- Neo4j task/tool relationships
- MCP stdio server with bounded tool surface
RoutingCapability tags decouple a task from one hard-coded tool name.
FallbackCandidates can be retried or replaced when health, capability or execution conditions change.
ObservabilityStructured logs, metrics, SSE and dashboard endpoints make decisions inspectable.
Synthetic explanation

Compare routing candidates

This browser-only model demonstrates the decision shape. It does not call a provider, MCP server, learning store or private source system.

Generic candidate names are intentional. Provider model names and prices change faster than this architecture, so the current proof does not make volatile model-ranking claims.

Evidence and limitations

Current reconciliation

ClaimEvidenceBoundary
Six core and ten extended modulesCurrent private source tree and READMEReference implementation, not an active production estate service
951 passing testsSource README claimNot re-run in this static refresh; a separate inspection counted roughly 1,038 test functions, which is not the same as a passing-run receipt
SPINE integrationSPINE contains an MCPOrchestratorExecutor and fallback pathThe backend remains optional; the integration does not make this project SPINE's adopted universal router
Provider and MCP routingImplemented source modules and historical demosCurrent proof avoids time-sensitive model rankings
Production readinessNot claimedNo multi-tenant authentication or active service deployment was verified

Lifecycle framing: this remains valuable as a didactic blueprint and runnable reference. Later estate work has absorbed or superseded parts of its original forward purpose, including SPINE-side integration and separate router products.

Open security follow-up: private issue #21 tracks rotation and removal of provider credentials that prior inspection found committed in configuration history. This documentation refresh does not close that issue and does not expose any credential value.
