+# PRD: P12-T2 — Add Tool Parameter Frequency Analysis
+
+**Status:** In Progress
+**Branch:** feature/P12-T2-tool-parameter-frequency-analysis
+**Date:** 2026-02-16
+
+---
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+Add optional capture and aggregation of tool call parameter **key names** (not values) to support pattern analysis. This enables operators to see which parameter combinations are most commonly used per tool without exposing sensitive argument values.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Deliverables
+
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `src/mcpbridge_wrapper/webui/config.py` | Add `capture_params: bool` flag (default `False`) under the `"metrics"` key |
+| `src/mcpbridge_wrapper/webui/metrics.py` | Add `record_param_keys(tool_name, param_keys)` method and `get_param_patterns(tool_name)` aggregation |
+| `src/mcpbridge_wrapper/webui/shared_metrics.py` | Add `param_patterns` table; `record_param_keys()` and `get_param_patterns()` methods |
+| `src/mcpbridge_wrapper/webui/server.py` | Add `GET /api/analytics/param-patterns?tool=<name>` endpoint |
+| `src/mcpbridge_wrapper/__main__.py` | Extract `params.arguments` key names when `capture_params=True` and call `metrics.record_param_keys()` |
+| `src/mcpbridge_wrapper/webui/static/dashboard.js` | Add expandable param pattern row in tool latency table |
+| `tests/unit/webui/test_metrics.py` | New test class covering param pattern recording and retrieval |
+| `tests/unit/webui/test_shared_metrics.py` | New tests for SQLite param pattern storage and `get_param_patterns` |
+
+---
+
+## 3. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] `capture_params: true` in config enables parameter key capture
+- [ ] Only argument key names are stored (not values) by default
+- [ ] `GET /api/analytics/param-patterns?tool=XcodeGrep` returns ranked param combos
+- [ ] Dashboard shows expandable param pattern info per tool in the latency table
+- [ ] Default behavior (`capture_params: false`) is unchanged — no extra capture overhead
+- [ ] Tests cover param extraction, aggregation, and API response format
+
+---
+
+## 4. Design Details
+
+### 4.1 Config Change
+
+Add `"capture_params": False` under the `"metrics"` section in `_DEFAULTS`. Add `capture_params` property to `WebUIConfig`.
+
+### 4.2 Param Key Extraction
+
+In `__main__.py` `on_request` callback: after extracting `tool_name`, if `config.capture_params` is enabled, extract `sorted(req.params.arguments.keys())` from the `MCPRequest`. The sorted tuple of key names forms a "param signature" (e.g. `("path", "pattern", "tabIdentifier")`).
+
+### 4.3 In-Memory Metrics (MetricsCollector)
+
+Add:
+- `_param_patterns: Dict[str, Dict[Tuple[str, ...], int]]` — maps `tool_name → {signature → count}`
+- `record_param_keys(tool_name: str, param_keys: List[str]) -> None` — increments counter for sorted key tuple
+- `get_param_patterns(tool_name: str, top_n: int = 10) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]` — returns sorted list of `{keys: [...], count: N}` dicts
+
+`reset()` must also clear `_param_patterns`.
+
+### 4.4 SQLite Storage (SharedMetricsStore)
+
+New table `param_patterns`:
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS param_patterns (
+    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
+    tool_name TEXT NOT NULL,
+    param_signature TEXT NOT NULL,  -- JSON array of sorted key names
+    count INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 1,
+    UNIQUE(tool_name, param_signature)
+);
+```
+
+- `record_param_keys(tool_name, param_keys)`: upsert (INSERT OR REPLACE) incrementing `count`.
+- `get_param_patterns(tool_name, top_n=10)`: SELECT ordered by `count DESC LIMIT top_n`.
+
+### 4.5 API Endpoint
+
+```
+GET /api/analytics/param-patterns?tool=<name>&top_n=10
+```
+
+Response:
+```json
+{
+  "tool": "XcodeGrep",
+  "patterns": [
+    {"keys": ["path", "pattern"], "count": 42},
+    {"keys": ["path", "pattern", "tabIdentifier"], "count": 17}
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### 4.6 Dashboard JS
+
+In the tool latency table, add an expandable chevron button per row. On click, fetch `/api/analytics/param-patterns?tool=<toolName>` and render a sub-row listing the top param combos (formatted as `pattern, path × 42`).
+
+---
+
+## 5. Dependencies
+
+- P12-T1 (MCP client identification) — ✅ completed
+- `MCPRequest.params.arguments` already available in `schemas.py`
+- Existing `on_request` callback in `__main__.py`
+
+---
+
+## 6. Non-Goals
+
+- Do not store argument values (only key names)
+- Do not add persistent storage for param patterns in the audit CSV
+- Do not add a config UI for the flag; JSON config file is sufficient
+
+---
+
+## 7. Test Plan
+
+### MetricsCollector
+- `test_record_param_keys_basic`: record two calls with same keys → count = 2
+- `test_record_param_keys_different_signatures`: two different key combos tracked separately
+- `test_get_param_patterns_sorted_by_count`: returns highest-count first
+- `test_get_param_patterns_top_n`: respects limit
+- `test_get_param_patterns_unknown_tool`: returns empty list
+- `test_reset_clears_param_patterns`
+
+### SharedMetricsStore
+- `test_record_param_keys_upserts_count`
+- `test_get_param_patterns_returns_ranked_list`
+- `test_get_param_patterns_unknown_tool_empty`
+
+### Server
+- `test_param_patterns_endpoint_returns_tool_patterns`
+- `test_param_patterns_endpoint_unknown_tool_empty`

+
+## Notes
+
+- `SharedMetricsStore.record_param_keys` uses SQLite UPSERT (`ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE`) for atomic count increment across processes.
+- `MetricsCollector.record_param_keys` uses a nested dict for in-memory single-process use.
+- The `updateLatencyTable` function now builds DOM elements directly instead of innerHTML string concatenation for the expand-row listener pattern.
+- When `capture_params` is disabled (default), the `on_request` path reaches the `if` check but immediately short-circuits — no argument key extraction occurs.

+## REVIEW REPORT — P12-T2: Tool Parameter Frequency Analysis
+
+**Scope:** origin/main..HEAD (4 commits)
+**Files:** 12 modified, 2 created (archive artifacts)
+**Date:** 2026-02-16
+
+---
+
+### Summary Verdict
+
+- [x] Approve
+
+---
+
+### Critical Issues
+
+None.
+
+---
+
+### Secondary Issues
+
+**[Low] `on_request` catch-all `except Exception: pass` swallows param capture errors silently**
+
+In `__main__.py`, the entire `on_request` body is wrapped in a bare `except Exception: pass`. This is pre-existing, not introduced by this task, and is intentional to prevent metrics logic from crashing the bridge. However the new `record_param_keys` call inherits this behavior — any bug in param key extraction would be silently suppressed. This is acceptable given the non-critical nature of the feature, but worth noting.
+
+**[Low] `SharedMetricsStore.record_param_keys` opens a new transaction per call**
+
+For high-frequency tool calls, each `record_param_keys` invocation commits a separate SQLite transaction. This is consistent with the existing `record_request`/`record_response` pattern and does not change behavior, but at very high call rates (>1000 req/s) SQLite write contention could increase. Acceptable for the use case.
+
+**[Nit] Dashboard event listener is re-registered on every `updateLatencyTable` call**
+
+The `tbody.addEventListener("click", ...)` call inside `updateLatencyTable` adds a new click listener each time metrics update (every 1 second). This means multiple handlers accumulate on the `tbody` element. Since the tbody is replaced via `innerHTML = ""` / `appendChild` on each refresh, old listeners are detached but the outer `tbody` element persists — so multiple listeners stack. Functionally harmless (duplicate fetches for the same tool would simply overwrite the container) but slightly wasteful.
+
+**Fix suggestion:** Move the event listener attachment to a one-time setup function or use event delegation on the parent table/section. Alternatively, track whether the listener is already attached via a `data-listener-attached` attribute.
+
+---
+
+### Architectural Notes
+
+- The design correctly separates in-memory (`MetricsCollector`) and process-safe (`SharedMetricsStore`) implementations, consistent with the existing pattern.
+- The `capture_params` flag is opt-in and defaults to `False` — safe for production use where argument values might be sensitive.
+- The API endpoint (`/api/analytics/param-patterns`) is read-only and requires the same auth as other endpoints. Good.
+- Param signatures are sorted before storage so `(pattern, path)` and `(path, pattern)` produce the same key — correct deduplication behavior.
+- The SQLite UPSERT (`ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE SET count = count + 1`) is atomic and correct for multi-process use.
+
+---
+
+### Tests
+
+- 8 new tests in `tests/unit/webui/test_metrics.py` (class `TestParamPatterns`)
+- 6 new tests in `tests/unit/webui/test_shared_metrics.py`
+- 4 new tests in `tests/unit/webui/test_server.py` (class `TestParamPatternsEndpoint`)
+- 2 new tests in `tests/unit/webui/test_config.py`
+- All 457 tests pass; coverage 95.95% (≥90%)
+- Note: No test covers the `on_request` param key extraction path in `__main__.py` (pre-existing limitation of `__main__` test coverage). This is acceptable.
+
+---
+
+### Next Steps
+
+- **FU-P12-T2-1 (Low):** Fix stacking event listeners in `updateLatencyTable` dashboard JS — move click handler attachment to a one-time setup.
+- No blockers. Feature is complete and ready to merge.
