Repository Ability Registry

The Repository Ability Registry maps repositories from usefulness to implementation:

Ability -> Capability -> Feature -> Evidence -> Code location

The first implementation slice is a Python registry core plus FastAPI HTTP API for manual repository profiles. It deliberately separates the manual/canonical registry path from the later analyzer pipeline.

Local Development

Create an environment and install dependencies:

python3 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"

Run tests:

pytest

Run the API:

uvicorn repo_registry.web_api.app:app --reload

The API creates a local SQLite database at var/repo-registry.sqlite3 by default.

First API Loop

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/repos \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{"name":"MailRouter","url":"https://example.com/mail-router.git"}'

Then add abilities, capabilities, features, and evidence under that repository and inspect:

curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/repos/1/ability-map
curl 'http://127.0.0.1:8000/search?q=classify'
