mcp-cli
MCP CLI Testing Playbook
Validate MCP servers with direct terminal commands and a strict pass/fail workflow.
Core rules
- Execute commands directly and sequentially.
- Do not write helper scripts unless explicitly requested.
- Treat server work as incomplete until verification checks pass.
- Prefer single-server commands while debugging.
- After rebuilding a server, retest with
MCP_NO_DAEMON=1.
What to load first
Use this progressive order to keep context tight:
- This file (
SKILL.md) for command strategy and execution rules. - Skill references for concrete command blocks:
