Summary

  • Removed unnecessary async declarations from all manager methods that don't contain any await statements
  • Fixed test fixture to not await the now-synchronous cleanup() method
  • Improved code clarity by accurately representing the synchronous nature of Meilisearch client operations

Problem

The codebase had all manager methods marked as async even though they were using the synchronous Meilisearch Python client and contained no actual asynchronous operations. This created confusion about the execution model and added unnecessary overhead.

Solution

  1. Removed async keyword from all manager methods in:

    • indexes.py (6 methods)
    • documents.py (7 methods)
    • settings.py (3 methods)
    • tasks.py (4 methods)
    • keys.py (5 methods)
    • monitoring.py (3 methods)
    • client.py (5 methods)
    • server.py (2 methods: update_connection and cleanup)
  2. Removed corresponding await keywords from all calls to these methods in server.py

  3. Fixed test fixture in test_mcp_client.py to not await the cleanup() method

Test Results

  • All tests that were passing before continue to pass
  • No new test failures introduced by these changes
  • Tests confirm that the synchronous operations work correctly

Impact

  • Improved code clarity: Methods now accurately represent their synchronous nature
  • Better performance: Removes unnecessary coroutine overhead
  • No breaking changes: The MCP protocol handlers remain async as required

This is a pure refactoring with no functional changes.

Walkthrough

All asynchronous (async def) methods across the Meilisearch MCP codebase have been converted to synchronous (def) methods. This affects client, document, index, key, monitoring, settings, task, and server management classes, as well as related test fixtures. The internal logic and control flow remain unchanged, but all async/await semantics have been removed.

Poem

A hop and a skip, async is gone,
Now synchronous bunnies can code on and on.
No more awaits in the carrot patch,
Just direct calls—what a catch!
With paws on the keys and code running fast,
This synchronous garden will surely last.

21-26: Consider improving exception chaining for better debugging.

While the async-to-sync conversion is correct, consider using exception chaining to preserve the original error context:

-            raise Exception(f"Failed to get key: {str(e)}")
+            raise Exception(f"Failed to get key: {str(e)}") from e

This pattern should be applied to all exception handlers in this class.

Also applies to: 28-33, 35-40, 42-47

src/meilisearch_mcp/indexes.py (1)

20-27: LGTM! All index management methods correctly converted to synchronous.

The conversion from async def to def is appropriate for all methods since they only call synchronous client methods without any await statements. The logic and error handling remain consistent.

Consider applying exception chaining for better debugging context (same pattern as suggested for KeyManager):

-            raise Exception(f"Failed to create index: {str(e)}")
+            raise Exception(f"Failed to create index: {str(e)}") from e

35-35: Correct removal of unnecessary async declaration.

The method only calls synchronous client methods and contains no await statements, making the async declaration redundant.


65-65: Appropriate conversion to synchronous method.

The method performs only synchronous operations with the Meilisearch client.


80-80: Correct synchronous conversion.

The method only makes synchronous calls to the Meilisearch client.
