Add a minimal runtime stdio MCP launcher that spawns configured server processes with piped stdin/stdout, applies transport env, and exposes async write/read/terminate/wait helpers for future JSON-RPC integration.
The wrapper stays intentionally small: it does not yet implement protocol framing or connection lifecycle management, but it is real process orchestration rather than placeholder scaffolding. Tests use a temporary executable script to prove env propagation and bidirectional stdio round-tripping.
Constraint: Keep the slice minimal and testable while using the real tokio process surface
Constraint: Runtime verification must pass cleanly under fmt, clippy, and tests
Rejected: Add full JSON-RPC framing and session orchestration in the same commit | too much scope for a clean launcher slice
Rejected: Fake the process wrapper behind mocks only | would not validate spawning, env injection, or stdio wiring
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Layer future MCP protocol framing on top of McpStdioProcess rather than bypassing it with ad hoc process management
Tested: cargo fmt --all; cargo clippy -p runtime --all-targets -- -D warnings; cargo test -p runtime
Not-tested: live third-party MCP servers; long-running process supervision; stderr capture policy
Add runtime OAuth primitives for PKCE generation, authorization URL building, token exchange request shaping, and refresh request shaping. Wire the API client to a real auth-source abstraction so future OAuth tokens can flow into Anthropic requests without bespoke header code.
This keeps the slice bounded to foundations: no browser flow, callback listener, or token persistence. The API client still behaves compatibly for current API-key users while gaining explicit bearer-token and combined auth modeling.
Constraint: Must keep the slice minimal and real while preserving current API client behavior
Constraint: Repo verification requires fmt, tests, and clippy to pass cleanly
Rejected: Implement full OAuth browser/listener flow now | too broad for the current parity-unblocking slice
Rejected: Keep auth handling as ad hoc env reads only | blocks reuse by future OAuth integration paths
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Extend OAuth behavior by composing these request/auth primitives before adding session or storage orchestration
Tested: cargo fmt --all; cargo clippy -p runtime -p api --all-targets -- -D warnings; cargo test -p runtime; cargo test -p api --tests
Not-tested: live OAuth token exchange; callback listener flow; workspace-wide tests outside runtime/api
Wire the CLI to the Anthropic client, runtime conversation loop, and MVP in-tree tool executor so prompt mode and the default REPL both execute real turns instead of scaffold-only commands.
Constraint: Proxy auth uses ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN as the primary x-api-key source and may stream extra usage fields
Constraint: Must preserve existing scaffold commands while enabling real prompt and REPL flows
Rejected: Keep prompt mode on the old scaffold path | does not satisfy end-to-end CLI requirement
Rejected: Depend solely on raw SSE message_stop from proxy | proxy/event differences required tolerant parsing plus fallback handling
Confidence: medium
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep prompt mode tool-free unless the one-shot path is explicitly expanded and reverified against the proxy
Tested: cargo test -p api; cargo test -p tools; cargo test -p runtime; cargo test -p rusty-claude-cli; cargo build; cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli -- prompt "say hello"; printf '/quit\n' | cargo run -p rusty-claude-cli --
Not-tested: Full interactive tool_use roundtrip against the proxy in REPL mode
