# ElizaOS Integration Guide

**For:** Registry Review MCP File Upload Feature
**Date:** 2025-11-17
**Updated:** 2025-11-17 (Added Phase 1: Deduplication)
**Status:** Ready for Integration

---

## Quick Start

The Registry Review MCP now supports file uploads! Your Eliza agent can accept PDF files from users and process them directly without filesystem access.

**New in Phase 1:** Automatic duplicate file detection and removal prevents accidental re-uploads and saves storage.

---

## Integration Example

### 1. Basic File Upload Handler

```typescript
import { Buffer } from 'buffer';
import { getLocalServerUrl } from '@elizaos/core';

async function handleRegistryReviewRequest(runtime, message) {
    // Extract PDF attachments
    const pdfAttachments = message.content.attachments.filter(
        att => att.title?.endsWith('.pdf') || att.contentType === 'application/pdf'
    );

    if (pdfAttachments.length === 0) {
        return "I don't see any PDF files attached. Please upload your project documents (PDFs) and I'll review them for registry compliance.";
    }

    try {
        // Convert files to base64
        const files = [];
        for (const attachment of pdfAttachments) {
            const response = await fetch(getLocalServerUrl(attachment.url));
            const arrayBuffer = await response.arrayBuffer();
            const buffer = Buffer.from(arrayBuffer);

            files.push({
                filename: attachment.title,
                content_base64: buffer.toString('base64'),
                mime_type: attachment.contentType || 'application/pdf'
            });
        }

        // Call MCP tool for complete review
        const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
            'registry-review',
            'start_review_from_uploads',
            {
                project_name: extractProjectName(message) || `Review ${new Date().toISOString()}`,
                files: files,
                methodology: 'soil-carbon-v1.2.2',
                auto_extract: true
            }
        );

        return result;

    } catch (error) {
        return `Error processing documents: ${error.message}`;
    }
}

function extractProjectName(message) {
    // Extract project name from user message
    // Example: "Review documents for Botany Farm 2022"
    const match = message.content.text?.match(/for\s+([^.]+)/i);
    return match ? match[1].trim() : null;
}
```

---

## Available MCP Tools

### 1. `start_review_from_uploads` ⭐ **Recommended**

**Best for:** Complete workflow in one step

```typescript
const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'start_review_from_uploads',
    {
        project_name: "Botany Farm 2022",
        files: [
            {
                filename: "ProjectPlan.pdf",
                content_base64: base64EncodedContent,
                mime_type: "application/pdf"
            },
            // ... more files
        ],
        auto_extract: true  // Get evidence coverage immediately
    }
);

// Result includes:
// - Session creation details
// - Document classification summary
// - Evidence extraction results (if auto_extract=true)
// - Coverage statistics (23 requirements)
```

### 2. `create_session_from_uploads`

**Best for:** When you want to control evidence extraction timing

```typescript
const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'create_session_from_uploads',
    {
        project_name: "My Project",
        files: [...],
        methodology: "soil-carbon-v1.2.2",
        project_id: "C06-1234",  // Optional
        proponent: "Farm LLC",    // Optional
        crediting_period: "2022-2032"  // Optional
    }
);

// Later, extract evidence manually:
await runtime.callMCPTool('registry-review', 'extract_evidence', {
    session_id: extractSessionId(result)
});
```

### 3. `upload_additional_files`

**Best for:** Adding files to an existing session

```typescript
// User uploads more files after initial review
const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'upload_additional_files',
    {
        session_id: "session-abc123",  // From previous create_session
        files: [
            {
                filename: "AdditionalReport.pdf",
                content_base64: newFileBase64
            }
        ]
    }
);
```

---

## Automatic Deduplication (Phase 1)

### What It Does

The upload tools now automatically detect and remove duplicate files:
- **Filename duplicates:** If the same filename appears multiple times, only the first is kept
- **Content duplicates:** If different filenames have identical content (SHA256), duplicates are removed
- **Transparent:** Happens automatically, no action required
- **Configurable:** Can be disabled with `deduplicate: false` if needed

### Default Behavior

Deduplication is **enabled by default** and works transparently:

```typescript
const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'start_review_from_uploads',
    {
        project_name: "My Project",
        files: [
            {filename: "plan.pdf", content_base64: pdfData},
            {filename: "plan.pdf", content_base64: pdfData},      // Duplicate - skipped
            {filename: "plan-copy.pdf", content_base64: pdfData}  // Same content - skipped
        ]
    }
);

// Result includes deduplication info:
// - files_uploaded: 3
// - files_saved: 1
// - total_duplicates_removed: 2
```

### Disabling Deduplication

For special cases (testing, version tracking), you can disable it:

```typescript
const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'create_session_from_uploads',
    {
        project_name: "Version Test",
        files: [
            {filename: "v1.pdf", content_base64: pdf},
            {filename: "v2.pdf", content_base64: pdf}  // Same content, both kept
        ],
        deduplicate: false  // Disable deduplication
    }
);
```

### Benefits

- **Prevents user frustration:** No more accidental duplicate uploads
- **Saves storage:** Duplicate content is not stored multiple times
- **Faster processing:** Fewer files to process through document discovery
- **Clear feedback:** Response shows what was deduplicated and why

## Conversation Flow Examples

### Example 1: Simple Review

**User:** "Please review these project documents for registry compliance."
*[Uploads 3 PDFs]*

**Agent:**
```typescript
const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'start_review_from_uploads',
    {
        project_name: "User Project Review",
        files: convertAttachmentsToBase64(message.content.attachments),
        auto_extract: true
    }
);
```

**Response:** *(formatted from result)*
```
✓ Review Started from Uploads

Session ID: session-abc123
Files Uploaded (3):
  - ProjectPlan.pdf
  - BaselineReport.pdf
  - MonitoringReport.pdf

Documents Found: 3
Evidence Extraction Complete:
  Total Requirements: 23
  ✅ Covered: 15 (65.2%)
  ⚠️  Partial: 6 (26.1%)
  ❌ Missing: 2 (8.7%)
  Overall Coverage: 78.3%

Next Steps:
  - Review partial requirements for additional evidence
  - Run cross-validation to verify date alignment
```

---

### Example 2: Iterative Upload

**User:** "I have the project plan ready. I'll send the baseline report later."
*[Uploads ProjectPlan.pdf]*

**Agent:**
```typescript
// First upload
const createResult = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'create_session_from_uploads',
    {
        project_name: "Iterative Review",
        files: [convertToBase64(projectPlan)],
        auto_extract: false  // Wait for all files
    }
);

storeSessionId(extractSessionId(createResult));  // Save for later
```

**Response:**
```
✓ Session Created

Session ID: session-xyz789
Files Uploaded (1):
  - ProjectPlan.pdf

I've started your review session. Upload the baseline report when ready, and I'll add it to the review.
```

**User:** *(later)* "Here's the baseline report."
*[Uploads BaselineReport.pdf]*

**Agent:**
```typescript
const addResult = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'upload_additional_files',
    {
        session_id: retrieveSessionId(),
        files: [convertToBase64(baselineReport)]
    }
);

// Now extract evidence with all files
const evidenceResult = await runtime.callMCPTool(
    'registry-review',
    'extract_evidence',
    {
        session_id: retrieveSessionId()
    }
);
```

**Response:**
```
✓ Files Added to Session

Added: BaselineReport.pdf
Total Documents: 2

Running evidence extraction with complete document set...
[Evidence results...]
```

## File Handling Best Practices

### 1. Validate File Types

```typescript
function validateAttachments(attachments) {
    const validTypes = [
        'application/pdf',
        'application/x-pdf',
    ];

    const pdfs = attachments.filter(att =>
        validTypes.includes(att.contentType) ||
        att.title?.toLowerCase().endsWith('.pdf')
    );

    if (pdfs.length === 0) {
        throw new Error("No PDF files found. Please upload PDF documents.");
    }

    return pdfs;
}
```

### 2. Handle Large Files

```typescript
async function convertToBase64WithSizeCheck(attachment, maxSizeMB = 50) {
    const response = await fetch(getLocalServerUrl(attachment.url));
    const arrayBuffer = await response.arrayBuffer();

    const sizeMB = arrayBuffer.byteLength / (1024 * 1024);
    if (sizeMB > maxSizeMB) {
        throw new Error(
            `File ${attachment.title} is too large (${sizeMB.toFixed(1)}MB). ` +
            `Maximum size is ${maxSizeMB}MB.`
        );
    }

    const buffer = Buffer.from(arrayBuffer);
    return buffer.toString('base64');
}
```

### 3. Provide Upload Feedback

```typescript
async function uploadWithProgress(runtime, files, projectName) {
    // Send initial message
    await sendMessage(`Uploading ${files.length} files...`);

    // Convert files
    const base64Files = [];
    for (let i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
        await sendMessage(`Processing ${i + 1}/${files.length}: ${files[i].title}`);
        const base64 = await convertToBase64(files[i]);
        base64Files.push({
            filename: files[i].title,
            content_base64: base64
        });
    }

    await sendMessage(`Starting registry review...`);

    // Call MCP tool
    const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
        'registry-review',
        'start_review_from_uploads',
        {
            project_name: projectName,
            files: base64Files,
            auto_extract: true
        }
    );

    return result;
}
```

---

## Error Handling

### Common Errors and Solutions

**1. Empty Files Array**
```
Error: At least one file is required
```
**Solution:** Validate attachments before calling tool
```typescript
if (pdfAttachments.length === 0) {
    return "Please attach at least one PDF document.";
}
```

**2. Invalid Base64**
```
Error: Failed to decode base64 content for 'file.pdf'
```
**Solution:** Ensure proper buffer conversion
```typescript
const buffer = Buffer.from(await response.arrayBuffer());
const base64 = buffer.toString('base64');  // Not .toString() alone
```

**3. Missing Project Name**
```
Error: project_name is required and cannot be empty
```
**Solution:** Provide default or prompt user
```typescript
const projectName = extractFromMessage(message) ||
                   `Review ${new Date().toISOString().split('T')[0]}`;
```

**4. Duplicate Filename**
```
Error: File already exists in session directory: ProjectPlan.pdf
```
**Solution:** Inform user about duplicate
```typescript
try {
    await runtime.callMCPTool('registry-review', 'upload_additional_files', {...});
} catch (error) {
    if (error.message.includes('already exists')) {
        return "That file is already in this session. Please use a different filename or upload a different file.";
    }
    throw error;
}
```

## Response Formatting

### Extract Key Information

```typescript
function formatReviewResults(mcpResult) {
    // Parse the result text
    const lines = mcpResult.split('\n');

    // Extract session ID
    const sessionLine = lines.find(l => l.includes('Session ID:'));
    const sessionId = sessionLine?.split(':')[1]?.trim();

    // Extract coverage stats
    const coveredLine = lines.find(l => l.includes('✅ Covered:'));
    const covered = coveredLine?.match(/\d+/)?.[0];

    const partialLine = lines.find(l => l.includes('⚠️  Partial:'));
    const partial = partialLine?.match(/\d+/)?.[0];

    const missingLine = lines.find(l => l.includes('❌ Missing:'));
    const missing = missingLine?.match(/\d+/)?.[0];

    return {
        sessionId,
        coverage: {
            covered: parseInt(covered || '0'),
            partial: parseInt(partial || '0'),
            missing: parseInt(missing || '0')
        }
    };
}
```

### Create User-Friendly Message

```typescript
function createUserMessage(reviewData) {
    const { coverage } = reviewData;
    const total = coverage.covered + coverage.partial + coverage.missing;
    const percentage = ((coverage.covered + coverage.partial * 0.5) / total * 100).toFixed(1);

    let message = `📊 Registry Review Complete!\n\n`;
    message += `Coverage: ${percentage}% of requirements addressed\n\n`;

    if (coverage.covered > 0) {
        message += `✅ ${coverage.covered} requirements fully covered\n`;
    }
    if (coverage.partial > 0) {
        message += `⚠️ ${coverage.partial} requirements partially covered (need more evidence)\n`;
    }
    if (coverage.missing > 0) {
        message += `❌ ${coverage.missing} requirements missing\n`;
    }

    message += `\n`;

    if (coverage.missing > 0) {
        message += `⚠️ Action needed: ${coverage.missing} requirements are missing evidence. You may need to provide additional documents.\n`;
    } else if (coverage.partial > 0) {
        message += `💡 Tip: ${coverage.partial} requirements have partial evidence. Review them to see what's needed.\n`;
    } else {
        message += `🎉 Excellent! All requirements are addressed.\n`;
    }

    return message;
}
```

## Testing Your Integration

### 1. Test with Sample PDFs

```typescript
// Create minimal test PDF
function createTestPDF() {
    const pdfContent = `%PDF-1.4
1 0 obj
<< /Type /Catalog /Pages 2 0 R >>
endobj
2 0 obj
<< /Type /Pages /Kids [3 0 R] /Count 1 >>
endobj
3 0 obj
<< /Type /Page /Parent 2 0 R /MediaBox [0 0 612 792] >>
endobj
xref
0 4
0000000000 65535 f
0000000009 00000 n
0000000074 00000 n
0000000120 00000 n
trailer
<< /Size 4 /Root 1 0 R >>
startxref

%%EOF`;

    return Buffer.from(pdfContent).toString('base64');
}

// Test the integration
async function testUpload() {
    const result = await runtime.callMCPTool(
        'registry-review',
        'start_review_from_uploads',
        {
            project_name: "Test Project",
            files: [
                {
                    filename: "test.pdf",
                    content_base64: createTestPDF()
                }
            ],
            auto_extract: false  // Skip evidence extraction for test
        }
    );

    console.log("✓ Upload test passed:", result);
}
```

### 2. Test Error Handling

```typescript
async function testErrorHandling() {
    // Test empty files
    try {
        await runtime.callMCPTool('registry-review', 'start_review_from_uploads', {
            project_name: "Test",
            files: []
        });
        console.error("❌ Should have thrown error for empty files");
    } catch (error) {
        console.log("✓ Empty files error handled correctly");
    }

    // Test invalid base64
    try {
        await runtime.callMCPTool('registry-review', 'start_review_from_uploads', {
            project_name: "Test",
            files: [{filename: "test.pdf", content_base64: "invalid!!!"}]
        });
        console.error("❌ Should have thrown error for invalid base64");
    } catch (error) {
        console.log("✓ Invalid base64 error handled correctly");
    }
}
```
