+# OpenAPI JSON-RPC JSDoc Generator
+
+**ALWAYS follow these instructions first. Only fall back to search or additional context gathering if the information here is incomplete or found to be in error.**
+
+OpenAPI JSON-RPC JSDoc is a Node.js library that generates OpenAPI 3.0 specifications from JSDoc comments in JavaScript files containing JSON-RPC API methods. It parses JSDoc annotations and creates complete OpenAPI schemas with request/response structures for JSON-RPC 2.0 APIs.
+
+## Working Effectively
+
+### Quick Start & Dependencies
+- **Node.js requirement**: Node.js >= 16 (confirmed working with v20.19.4)
+- **Install dependencies**: `npm install` 
+  - Takes approximately 30 seconds to complete
+  - Will show 9 security vulnerabilities (known issue, doesn't affect functionality)
+  - **NEVER CANCEL**: Set timeout to 60+ seconds for reliability
+
+### Core Testing & Validation
+- **Run unit tests**: `npm test -- --timeout=5s --match='t*'`
+  - Takes approximately 1-2 seconds
+  - Runs the two main unit tests (t1, t2) that validate OpenAPI generation
+  - **Skip integration test**: The full `npm test` includes an HTTP integration test that times out after 10 seconds - this is a known issue and doesn't affect core functionality
+  
+- **Manual functionality validation** (ALWAYS run after changes):
+```bash
+# Create test file in repository root
+cat > test-validation.js << 'EOF'
+const openapiJSONRpcJSDoc = require('./index.js');
+async function test() {
+  const result = await openapiJSONRpcJSDoc({
+    api: '/api/',
+    servers: [{ url: 'http://localhost:8080' }],
+    packageUrl: './package.json',
+    files: './test/api/*.js',
+  });
+  console.log('✅ Generated paths:', Object.keys(result.paths));
+  console.log('✅ API:', result.info.title, 'v' + result.info.version);
+}
+test().catch(console.error);
+EOF
+
+# Run validation test
+node test-validation.js
+```
+- **Expected output**: Should show generated paths `[ '/api/v1', '/api/v2' ]` and `✅ API: openapi-jsonrpc-jsdoc v1.1.2`
+- **Takes**: Less than 1 second (typically 0.3 seconds)
+- **CRITICAL**: Always run this validation after making changes to `index.js`
+
+## Validation Scenarios
+
+### Core Functionality Testing
+After making any changes to the library code (`index.js`), **ALWAYS** run these validation scenarios:
+
+1. **JSDoc Parsing Test**:
+   - The library should parse JSDoc comments from `test/api/v1.js` and `test/api/v2.js`
+   - Generated OpenAPI spec should include both `/api/v1` and `/api/v2` endpoints
+   - v1 endpoint should include parameter definitions from JSDoc @param tags
+   - v2 endpoint should be marked as deprecated
+
+2. **OpenAPI Schema Validation**:
+   - Generated JSON should be valid OpenAPI 3.0 format
+   - Each endpoint should have POST method with JSON-RPC request body schema
+   - Request schema should include required fields: `method`, `id`, `jsonrpc`, and `params` (when applicable)
+
+3. **Parameter Processing Test**:
+   - Changes to parameter parsing logic require testing with complex JSDoc structures
+   - Test with nested object parameters and various type annotations
+
+## Repository Structure
+
+### Key Files and Directories
+```
+/
+├── index.js              # Main library file (174 lines) - core OpenAPI generation logic
+├── package.json          # NPM package configuration - dependencies and scripts
+├── test/
+│   ├── index.test.js     # AVA test suite - unit and integration tests
+│   └── api/              # Sample API files for testing
+│       ├── v1.js         # Example API with parameters and JSDoc
+│       └── v2.js         # Example deprecated API
+├── .github/
+│   └── workflows/        # CI/CD configuration
+│       ├── nodejs.yml    # Main CI pipeline
+│       └── npmpublish.yml # NPM publishing workflow
+└── README.md             # Usage documentation and examples
+```
+
+### Important Code Sections
+- **JSDoc parsing**: Lines 4-15 in `index.js` - uses jsdoc-x library
+- **Parameter processing**: Lines 126-168 in `index.js` - converts JSDoc @param to OpenAPI schema
+- **Schema generation**: Lines 64-125 in `index.js` - creates OpenAPI endpoint definitions
+
+## Build and CI Information
+
+### No Build Process Required
+- This is a library package - no compilation or build step needed
+- Main entry point is `index.js` which exports a single async function
+- **Do not** look for build scripts like `npm run build` - they don't exist
+
+### CI/CD Pipeline (.github/workflows/nodejs.yml)
+- Runs on every push
+- Uses Node.js 14.x (outdated but functional)
+- Steps: `npm i` → `npm test`
+- **Known issue**: CI may fail due to test timeout, but core functionality remains valid
+
+### Dependencies
+- **Production**: `jsdoc-x ~4.1.0` (JSDoc parsing)
+- **Development**: `ava ~3.15.0` (testing), `express ~5.1.0` + `express-openapi-validator ~5.5.3` (integration testing)
+- **Security warnings**: 9 known vulnerabilities in dev dependencies - does not affect production usage
+
+## Common Development Tasks
+
+### Adding New JSDoc Tags Support
+1. Modify parameter parsing logic in `index.js` lines 126-168
+2. Add test case in `test/api/` directory with new JSDoc pattern
+3. Update unit tests in `test/index.test.js`
+4. **ALWAYS validate** with manual functionality test
+
+### Debugging Generation Issues
+1. **Check JSDoc syntax**: Ensure proper `@param` and `@description` tags in API files
+2. **Verify file patterns**: The `files` parameter must match existing .js files
+3. **Test with minimal example**:
+```javascript
+// Create simple test API file
+/**
+ * @description Test API
+ * @param {object} params - parameters
+ * @param {string} params.id - user id
+ */
+module.exports = (params) => params.id;
+```
+
+### Testing Changes
+- **Unit tests**: Run `npm test -- --match='t*' --timeout=5s` (avoids integration test timeout)
+- **Manual validation**: Always run the functionality validation script above
+- **Integration testing**: The HTTP integration test times out - this is expected and doesn't indicate problems
+
+## Known Issues and Workarounds
+
+### Test Suite Timeout
+- **Issue**: Full `npm test` times out on HTTP integration test after 10 seconds
+- **Workaround**: Run unit tests only with `npm test -- --match='t*' --timeout=5s`
+- **Impact**: Core functionality is unaffected, unit tests validate library correctness
+
+### Security Vulnerabilities
+- **Issue**: 9 vulnerabilities in development dependencies (ava, jsdoc toolchain)
+- **Status**: Known issue, doesn't affect production library usage
+- **Action**: Do not run `npm audit fix --force` as it introduces breaking changes
+
+### Node.js Version Compatibility
+- **Requirement**: Node.js >= 16 (package.json engines field)
+- **CI uses**: Node.js 14.x (should be updated to 16+ but currently functional)
+- **Testing confirmed**: Works with Node.js 20.19.4
+
+## Quick Reference Commands
+
+```bash
+# Fresh setup
+npm install                                    # ~7-30 seconds
+
+# Validate functionality  
+npm test -- --match='t*' --timeout=5s        # ~1-2 seconds, unit tests only
+
+# Manual library test (create test-validation.js first, see above)
+node test-validation.js                       # <1 second
+
+# Check package info
+npm list --depth=0                           # Show direct dependencies
+node --version                               # Verify Node.js version >= 16
+```
+
+## Timing Expectations
+- **npm install**: 7-30 seconds (varies by network/cache, NEVER CANCEL - set 60+ second timeout)
+- **Unit tests**: 1-2 seconds  
+- **Manual validation**: <1 second (typically 0.3 seconds)
+- **Full test suite**: 11+ seconds (times out, use unit tests instead)
+
+**REMEMBER**: This library has no build process. Focus on testing JSDoc parsing and OpenAPI generation accuracy.
