📋 Decision Context

Question:

What is the relationship between mcp-gograb-ai (editor2) and ai-gateway MCP bridge (gograb-modules)?

Task: Port and MCP integration analysis between editor2 and gograb-modules monorepos

🎯 Decision Made

Chosen:

Complementary roles - mcp-gograb-ai is MCP SERVER (provides 40+ tools), ai-gateway is MCP CLIENT (consumes tools)

Options Considered:

Competing implementations - deprecate one
Complementary roles - server vs client
Merge into single implementation
Keep completely separate

💭 Reasoning

Analysis revealed they serve different architectural purposes: mcp-gograb-ai PROVIDES tools (decision tracking, learning, code review, etc.) while ai-gateway MCP bridge CONSUMES tools from external MCP servers via STDIO transport. They are designed to work together - ai-gateway can connect to mcp-gograb-ai as one of its server connections. This enables module generation workflow to benefit from learning, session tracking, and pattern mining.
