* chore: additional server conformance tests for SEP-2575
* fix(sep-2575): use the spec's notifications filter object in subscriptions/listen
The scenario sent params.subscriptions: [{type: 'tools/list-changed'}], a
shape that does not exist in the SEP. SubscriptionsListenRequestParams
requires params.notifications: {toolsListChanged?, promptsListChanged?, ...}
(see schema.ts SubscriptionFilter and the canonical
SubscriptionsListenRequest example). A compliant server would either reject
the old request as invalid params or treat it as subscribing to nothing,
failing the ack/list-changed checks.
Also makes the everything-server's acknowledgment echo the agreed
notifications filter, as the SubscriptionsAcknowledgedNotification schema
requires.
* fix(sep-2575): match the spec's notifications/*/list_changed method names
The list-changed checks and the everything-server used
notifications/tools/list-changed (hyphen); the spec's method is
notifications/tools/list_changed (underscore) per ToolListChangedNotification
/ PromptListChangedNotification in schema.ts. With the hyphen form the
notification-filter check cannot catch a real leak, and the list-changed
checks fail a server that emits the correct name.
Also drops the f.params.toolsListChanged === true fallback match: that field
is the subscriptions/listen request filter, not a notification parameter, so
it never appears on a compliant server's notification.
* fix(sep-2575): keep collected frames when the listen stream read times out
listenToStream aborts the fetch after timeoutMs. If the abort fired while
blocked in reader.read(), the rejection propagated to the outer catch and the
helper returned [] — discarding every frame already received. A compliant
server holds a subscriptions/listen stream open indefinitely, so the timeout
is the *normal* way these reads end; previously every subscription check
would report a false 'no frames received' FAILURE against such a server.
The current everything-server only avoided this by res.end()ing immediately
after the ack.
* fix(sep-2575): open the listen stream before triggering list mutations
The notification-filter and list-changed checks fired the mutation trigger
*before* opening the subscriptions/listen stream. A compliant server only
delivers list-changed notifications to streams that are open at the time of
the change, so the SHOULD checks would fail any server that does not replay
past changes to new subscribers, and the filter check could never observe a
real leak.
listenToStream now takes an onFirstFrame hook; the three trigger-based
checks open the stream, wait for the acknowledgment, then fire the mutation
on a separate connection and keep reading.
The everything-server now keeps subscriptions/listen streams open, registers
them with their filters, and fans the list_changed notification out to open
streams when a trigger tool runs - instead of unconditionally emitting a
list-changed frame on every stream open (which itself violated the
notification-filter requirement in spirit: it announced a change when
nothing had changed).
* fix(sep-2575): check the subscription id on every listen-stream notification
server-tags-subscription-id only inspected the acknowledgment frame, so a
server that tags the ack but omits io.modelcontextprotocol/subscriptionId
from subsequent notifications passed. The check now triggers a tool-list
change once the stream is acknowledged and asserts every notification frame
on the stream carries the id in params._meta.
Also drops the f.body.method / f.params.method fallbacks when resolving a
frame's method - those shapes don't exist in JSON-RPC and only masked
malformed frames.
* fix(sep-2575): report WARNING, not FAILURE, for the SHOULD-level list-changed checks
The spec text behind server-sends-{tools,prompts}-list-changed-on-subscription
is a SHOULD ('servers that declared the listChanged capability SHOULD send a
notification...'). Severity follows the spec keyword: MUST -> FAILURE,
SHOULD -> WARNING. runCheck now accepts a warning flag and the two
list-changed checks use it on their failure paths.
* fix(sep-2575): skip stream checks when the diagnostic tool is not exposed
http-server-no-independent-requests-on-stream and
server-no-log-without-loglevel reported SUCCESS when the server rejected the
tools/call outright (e.g. test_streaming_elicitation / test_logging_tool do
not exist): a single error frame contains no independent request and no log
notification, so the check passed without exercising anything. The sibling
list-changed checks already SKIP when their trigger tool is missing; these
now do the same.
* chore(sep-2575): exclude the four unobservable server requirements from traceability
Marks the section-C rows of #296 as excluded rather than untested:
no-prior-context, no-connection-reuse-required, disconnect-is-cancel and
stops-on-cancel describe internal server state that a black-box harness
cannot observe on the wire. With these excluded and the part-B checks landed,
every testable server-side SEP-2575 requirement is covered; the remaining
untested rows are all client-side and blocked on a SEP-2575-aware reference
client.

* feat: add server conformance tests for SEP-2575
* refactor and add new checks
* Fix stateless scenario source field and report SKIPPED for inapplicable capability checks
- Add the required `source` field (DRAFT) so the scenario typechecks and is
selectable via --spec-version. Without it the class did not satisfy the
ClientScenario interface and s.source was dereferenced by the spec-version
filter at list time.
- Teach runCheck about a SKIPPED status and use it for the two client-capability
checks when the server does not return -32003, instead of reporting a green
PASS for a requirement that was never exercised.
* Remove unimplemented placeholder checks from stateless server scenario
The subscriptions/listen, statelessness-invariant, list-changed and
disconnect-is-cancel checks emitted SUCCESS without probing the server,
which inflated coverage in the traceability report. Drop them until they
have real assertions; the corresponding rows remain declared in
src/seps/sep-2575.yaml so traceability shows them as not-yet-covered.
Also fix the checkErrorId helper to push under the
sep-2575-http-server-error-jsonrpc-id slug so its failure path actually
short-circuits the aggregate SUCCESS check at the end of the scenario.

The sep-2243 scenario check IDs drifted from the requirement-traceability
yaml in #259 — the code emitted one ID per test case while the yaml
declares one per normative requirement, so the IDs no longer matched.
Rename the emitted IDs so a check ID maps to a single MUST/SHOULD and is
emitted once per case (the per-case detail moves to name/description),
matching the repo's existing 'same id, vary status/message' convention:
- mcp-method-header-* / mcp-name-header-* -> client-includes-standard-headers
- reject-invalid-tool-* / keep-valid-tool -> client-reject-invalid-tool
- server-accepts-{lower,upper}case-name -> header-name-case-insensitive
- server reject status checks (mismatch/missing/case x method/name)
-> server-reject-invalid-headers
- their error-code variants -> server-reject-error-code
Merge the yaml's server-reject-mismatch + server-reject-status into one
server-reject-invalid-headers MUST (HTTP 400 on a header-validation
failure); keep server-reject-error-code as the SHOULD. Base64/custom-header
rejection checks keep their own param-validation IDs (out of scope here).
Gates and the whitespace-acceptance check keep their scenario-matching
names. No behavior change — only check IDs, descriptions, and the yaml.
* Add prepare script for git dependency installs
* Add conformance tests for SEP-2243 HTTP Standardization
* Add traceability file for SEP-2243
* Fix prettier formatting in http-standard-headers.ts
* Improve SEP-2243 conformance test coverage
Close gaps in HTTP header conformance scenarios:
Client standard headers (http-standard-headers.ts):
- Enforce all expected methods in checks, failing any that were not observed
- Track Mcp-Name header per-method separately from Mcp-Method
- Advertise resources and prompts capabilities so clients exercise those endpoints
- Add a prompt entry for prompts/get testing
Client custom headers (http-custom-headers.ts):
- Add Base64 encoding checks for non-ASCII, whitespace, and control-char values
- Add null/omitted parameter test (second tool call with null value)
- Add client-keeps-valid-tool check verifying clients still call valid tools
after filtering out invalid ones
Server header validation (server/http-standard-headers.ts):
- Replace fetch-based sendRawRequest with http.request to preserve exact
header casing on the wire (fetch/Headers lowercases names)
- Compute defaultArgs and defaultHeaders from tool schema so test requests
satisfy all required parameters while varying only the param under test
Traceability (sep-2243.yaml):
- Add 7 new spec-to-check mappings (nonascii, whitespace, controlchar,
keeps-valid-tool, literal-missing-base64-prefix/suffix, no-mirror-unannotated)
- Fix 2 incorrect existing mappings
* Fill SEP-2243 conformance test coverage gaps
Add missing test cases identified by comparing the branch against the
SEP-2243 spec's Conformance Test Cases section:
- Mcp-Method on notifications: add notifications/initialized to
expectedMethods so clients are checked for header on notifications
- Boolean true: add debug=true param to complement verbose=false
- Leading-space-only and trailing-space-only: separate checks for
Base64 encoding when only one edge has whitespace
- Internal spaces only: verify plain ASCII (no Base64) for values
like 'us west 1' that have spaces only in the middle
- CRLF string: add line1\r\nline2 test (complements existing \n test)
- Leading tab: add \tindented test for tab-triggered Base64 encoding
- Server rejects invalid Mcp-Param chars: mark as excluded in YAML
since HTTP itself prevents these characters in headers
Register all new checks in sep-2243.yaml.
* Remove case-insensitive =?base64? prefix test
The spec states header values are case-sensitive (RFC 9110). The
=?base64? prefix is part of the header value, not the header name,
so it should be matched case-sensitively. This was identified as a
bug in the conformance tests per feedback on SEP-2243.
Changes:
- Remove server-accepts-case-insensitive-base64 check from server
validation scenario
- Change base64 prefix regex from case-insensitive (/i) to
case-sensitive in client header validation
- Remove corresponding entry from sep-2243.yaml
* Remove nested x-mcp-header rejection test
The spec constrains x-mcp-header to primitive types but does not
restrict it to top-level properties only. A nested string property
with x-mcp-header is valid per the spec. This was confirmed by
mikekistler in SEP-2243 PR discussion.
Removes invalid_nested_header from the invalid tool definitions
list and its corresponding sep-2243.yaml entry.
* Use numeric comparison for number header values
Compare number header values numerically instead of as strings to
accommodate cross-SDK floating point representation differences
(e.g., '42' vs '42.0'). For integers, exact numeric match is
required. For decimals, a tolerance of 1e-9 is allowed.
See SEP-2243 discussion on number precision.
* client/http-standard-headers: SKIPPED (not FAILURE) for unexercised methods; make getChecks() idempotent
A client that never calls prompts/list isn't violating SEP-2243 — the spec
sentence is 'The client MUST include the standard MCP request headers on each
POST request', and a request that was never sent can't fail it. The Mcp-Method
requirement is already proven by initialize/tools/list etc., so there's nothing
unique to prompts/list. SKIPPED keeps the gap visible without a false red.
Separately: getChecks() was pushing into this.checks on every call. The runner
may call it more than once (e.g. progress + final report); that produced
duplicate rows. Build a fresh array per call instead.
* client/http-standard-headers: de-dup guard in checkMcpNameHeader
checkMcpMethodHeader already has 'if (this.methodHeaderChecks.has(method)) return'.
checkMcpNameHeader was missing the equivalent. The test server advertises two
tools and two resources; a client that calls both produces two
'client-mcp-name-header-tools-call' / '...-resources-read' rows.
* client/http-standard-headers: replace -> /\//g for slug generation
String.replace with a string arg only replaces the first occurrence.
'notifications/initialized' is fine (one slash) but a method like
'notifications/resources/updated' would yield 'notifications-resources/updated'
in the check id. (replaceAll isn't in this project's TS lib target.)
* client/http-custom-headers: base64 regex (.+) -> (.*) so empty string round-trips
The spec doesn't forbid base64-encoding values that don't strictly need it.
A client that always wraps would send '=?base64??=' for empty_val: ''. The
'.+' wouldn't match, so the harness would compare '=?base64??=' === ''
literally and FAIL a compliant client. '(.*)' lets the empty payload decode
to '' and match.
* client/http-custom-headers: emit SUCCESS for no-mirror-unannotated
This check only pushed on FAILURE; a correct client produced no row at all,
so the pass was invisible in reports and couldn't be counted toward coverage.
Same-slug SUCCESS/FAILURE pair is the repo convention.
* client/http-custom-headers: drop redundant optional-present check
checkParamHeader('Verbose', ...) already pushes a FAILURE when the header is
missing. The explicit 'optional-present' block re-tests the same condition
under a second check id, doubling the row.
* server/http-standard-headers: defaultArgs must use real number/boolean, not strings
defaultArgs feeds the JSON-RPC body. With Record<string, string> + '0'/'false',
a server that validates inputSchema rejects on type mismatch — which is also a
400. Every header-rejection check then false-PASSes (server rejected for the
wrong reason), and server-accepts-valid-base64 false-FAILs a compliant server
because it never gets past schema validation.
Also handle 'integer' (JSON Schema distinguishes it from 'number').
* server/http-standard-headers: createAcceptanceCheck must also assert no JSON-RPC error in body
A server can return HTTP 200 with {error: {code: -32001, ...}} in the body.
Status-only acceptance lets that through as a pass.
* use DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION constant instead of 'DRAFT-2026-v1' literal
The literal will rot when the draft cycle rolls over. types.ts already exports
DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION for this.
* sep-2243.yaml: spec-first rewrite + move to src/seps/
Regenerated from the SEP-2243 spec diff (transports.mdx + tools.mdx) rather
than from the scenario implementations: 21 check rows + 4 excluded vs the
previous 46 + 2. Differences:
- one check id per spec sentence (test variants go in 'details', not new ids)
- 'text:' quotes the spec sentence verbatim instead of paraphrasing
- '-reject-status' (MUST 400) split from '-reject-error-code' (SHOULD -32001
for standard headers, MUST for custom)
- rows with no spec backing dropped (whitespace, base64-padding/chars, prefix/
suffix-literal, control-char-name)
- two more SHOULD excludes (log-warning, no-sensitive-params)
- check ids use sep-2243-<slug> convention
- check: key first, excludes grouped at bottom (matches sep-2164)
Moved to src/seps/ to match #272 layout (this branch predates it; will
reconcile cleanly on rebase).
* add negative test for HttpStandardHeadersScenario
Self-contained vitest that POSTs initialize with and without Mcp-Method,
asserts FAILURE/SUCCESS on the pinned check id, and proves getChecks() is
idempotent. No example client/server file needed for this one because the
scenario *is* the server — the test crafts the bad request directly.
This is the negative-test half of AGENTS.md §Testing your scenario; the
everything-client passing-example half is still TODO.
* server/http-standard-headers: severity fixes for whitespace + malformed-base64 tests
These five tests assert behavior the SEP-2243 text doesn't pin down. Kept
because they're useful consistency signals across SDKs, but adjusted so they
don't FAIL spec-compliant servers:
- server-accepts-whitespace-header-value: this IS a MUST, but per RFC 9110
§5.5 (field parsing MUST exclude OWS), not SEP-2243. Kept as FAILURE,
specReference now cites RFC 9110.
- server-rejects-invalid-base64-padding / -chars: downgraded to INFO.
SEP-2243 says only 'MUST decode them accordingly' without picking RFC 4648
strict vs lenient. Node's Buffer.from() accepts unpadded/dirty input and
decodes to a matching value (server accepts); .NET's Convert.FromBase64String
throws (server rejects). Either is currently compliant. WARNING would force
Tier-1 SDKs into non-default strict decoding (#245); INFO records the
behavior without prescribing it, so cross-SDK divergence is visible
without tier impact.
- server-literal-missing-base64-prefix / -suffix: unchanged. The wrapper
syntax is '=?base64?{x}?=' complete; treating partial wrappers as literal
is the natural reading.
Plumbing: createRejectionCheck gains an optional failSeverity param;
testBase64Case gains a 'reject-info' mode. (This is also the hook for the
larger 400-MUST / -32001-SHOULD split that still needs doing.)
* server/http-standard-headers: split rejection check into status (MUST) + error-code (SHOULD/MUST)
SEP-2243 §Server Validation: 'servers MUST return HTTP status 400 ... and
SHOULD include a JSON-RPC error response using ... -32001'. So a server that
returns 400 with -32600 (or no error body) is compliant for standard headers.
The single conflated check FAILed it.
For custom headers (§Server Behavior for Custom Headers) -32001 IS a MUST,
so both halves stay FAILURE there.
createRejectionCheck → createRejectionChecks returning two rows: '<id>' for
the 400 status and '<id>-error-code' for -32001. testCase (standard) sets
errorCodeSeverity=WARNING; testBase64Case/testMissingCustomHeader (custom)
keep FAILURE; the two malformed-base64 INFO probes set both halves to INFO.
* rename check ids to sep-2243-* prefix; kebab-case throughout
Aligns with the sep-2243.yaml traceability ids and the repo convention
(sep-2164-*, sep-2207-*). Variant suffixes are kept (per-method, per-tool)
so per-case visibility isn't lost; the YAML's row id is a prefix of the
emitted ids, which is fine — extra ids not in the YAML are allowed.
Also fixes the mixed hyphen/underscore in reject-invalid-tool ids
(toolName has underscores; replace to hyphens).
* client: extract BaseHttpScenario to client/http-base.ts; both client scenarios extend it
http-standard-headers.ts had its own copy of the start/stop/handleRequest
boilerplate (~100 lines) that http-custom-headers.ts already abstracted as
BaseHttpScenario. Moved the abstract class to a shared file; both scenario
files now import it. HttpStandardHeadersScenario implements handlePost()
instead of handleRequest(); its handleInitialize() uses the base
sendInitialize() with the resources/prompts capability flags it needs.
Net: 465 → 361 lines for http-standard-headers.ts; the third inline copy of
the same HTTP-server scaffold is gone.
* use req.setEncoding('utf8') instead of per-chunk Buffer.toString()
Per-chunk .toString() corrupts a multi-byte UTF-8 char that straddles a TCP
chunk boundary (e.g. 0xC3 | 0xBC decodes to two replacement chars instead of
'ü'). The custom-headers scenario sends '日本語'/'naïve' in the body, so this
is reachable in principle. setEncoding('utf8') makes 'data' emit strings with
boundary handling done by Node's StringDecoder.
Fixed in both places: BaseHttpScenario.handleRequest (request body) and
sendRawRequest (response body).
* fix: migrate SEP-2243 scenarios from specVersions to source (introducedIn/removedIn)
The introducedIn/removedIn refactor (#265) replaced the specVersions array
with a source property on all scenario interfaces. The SEP-2243 scenarios
still used the old specVersions field, causing matchesSpecVersion() to
receive undefined and crash in spec-version.test.ts.
Replace specVersions with source = { introducedIn: DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION }
in BaseHttpScenario and the two server ClientScenario classes. Remove the
now-unused SpecVersion imports.
* server/http-standard-headers: malformed-base64 padding/chars back to FAILURE
Per discussion on #259: the SEP-2243 conformance-test-case table is the
approved source of truth and lists these as reject cases, so they're
FAILURE-level even though the spec body itself only says 'MUST decode them
accordingly'. SDKs whose stdlib base64 is lenient (Node, browsers) will need
to validate before decoding; if that's burdensome we'll revisit.
Removes the now-unused 'reject-info' mode and statusSeverity/INFO plumbing
introduced for these two probes.

* refactor: replace specVersions list with introducedIn/removedIn range tagging
Replaces per-scenario `specVersions: SpecVersion[]` arrays with `introducedIn`
and optional `removedIn` range fields on all three scenario interfaces. Extension
scenarios get an orthogonal `extension?: boolean` flag instead of the former
`'extension'` tag in the versions list.
matchesSpecVersion() is rewritten as a range comparison
(introducedIn <= target && (!removedIn || target < removedIn)), with draft
sorting after all dated versions. getScenarioSpecVersions() reconstructs the
effective version list from the range for backward-compat with tier-check.
Closes#256.
* refactor: nest spec-version range under `source: ScenarioSource` union
The flat `introducedIn`/`removedIn`/`extension?` shape forced extension
scenarios to set a placeholder `introducedIn` that was never read. Nesting
the version-range fields inside a `source` property typed as a union lets
the compiler enforce introducedIn XOR extensionId — no runtime invariant
test needed.
type ScenarioSource =
| { introducedIn: SpecVersion; removedIn?: SpecVersion }
| { extensionId: ExtensionId };
A class can't `implements` a union type directly, so the union lives inside
a property and `Scenario` stays a plain interface — `class implements
Scenario` keeps working everywhere. `EXTENSION_IDS` is a const array
mirroring the `DATED_SPEC_VERSIONS` pattern.
Also renames the cross-app-access scenario to enterprise-managed-auth to
match the extension's canonical name: file, class, slug, context schema
literal, and the everything-client runner.
* refactor: use canonical SEP-2133 extension identifiers
EXTENSION_IDS now holds the wire identifiers from the spec's extension docs
(client-matrix.mdx, docs/extensions/auth/*.mdx) so extensionId values can be
cross-referenced against capabilities.extensions keys directly:
io.modelcontextprotocol/oauth-client-credentials
io.modelcontextprotocol/enterprise-managed-authorization
The previous commit used a shortened 'enterprise-managed-auth' which doesn't
match the canonical '-authorization'. Re-renames the scenario file/class/slug
and downstream references to align.

* feat: add new-sep scaffolding command
Related #243.
This commit adds the new-sep <NNNN> subcommand, which writes the file src/scenarios/<target>/sep-<NNNN>.yaml. This file contains the "sep", "spec_url", and "requirements" rows in the same style as sep-2164.yaml, with single quotes and two spaces. The spec source resolves in order: --spec-url → --spec-path → GitHub API against modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol (explicit --pr or title search for "SEP-NNNN").
The target directory is inferred from the spec path (`server/`, `client/`, or `basic/authorization*`); the --target flag overrides this. It refuses to overwrite without the --force flag.
Token resolution reuses the "gh auth token" fallback pattern from tier-check.
It also ships the .claude/skills/new-sep directory, which drives the CLI. It fetches the spec diff via "gh api" and extracts RFC 2119 sentences. There is a warning against regex-only matching. Bullets inherit keywords from their lead-in sentence. It rewrites the placeholder rows per the severity rules in AGENTS.md. MUST/SHALL/REQUIRED are checked for FAILURE. SHOULD is checked for WARNING. MAY/OPTIONAL are excluded.

* feat: support "draft" as a first-class spec version target
- Add LATEST_SPEC_VERSION and DATED_SPEC_VERSIONS constants so the next
spec release is a one-line change in types.ts.
- Accept "draft" as a valid protocolVersion in the initialize check and
mock-server response.
- --spec-version draft now selects latest-dated scenarios plus draft-tagged
ones, so SEP authors can run the full suite against an SDK tracking the
in-progress spec without retagging core scenarios.
- Forward --spec-version to the client process via
MCP_CONFORMANCE_SPEC_VERSION so SDK examples can pick the matching
protocolVersion.
Closes#253
* review: collapse SpecVersion to wire strings; dedup NEGOTIABLE_PROTOCOL_VERSIONS; split out 'extension'
Addresses review feedback from @felixweinberger and @mikekistler:
- SpecVersion is now always a wire protocolVersion string
(DatedSpecVersion | typeof DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION). The separate
'draft' tag literal is gone from the type system; 'draft' survives
only as a CLI input alias in resolveSpecVersion. Removes the
tag-vs-wire confusion and the specVersionToProtocolVersion mapping.
- NEGOTIABLE_PROTOCOL_VERSIONS in types.ts is the single source for
what the mock server accepts on initialize (was duplicated in
checks/client.ts and scenarios/client/initialize.ts).
- 'extension' moved out of SpecVersion into a separate ScenarioSpecTag
type. --spec-version extension is no longer valid; extension scenarios
remain reachable via --suite extensions.
- Draft-tagged scenarios now use the DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION constant
so a draft revision bump is a one-line change in types.ts.
Adds src/scenarios/server/negative.test.ts with spawn helpers. Wires
two cases: the previously-orphaned no-dns-rebinding-protection.ts and
a new sep-2164-empty-contents.ts. Strengthens the AGENTS.md guidance
to point at the harness.
* feat: add conformance scenario for SEP-2164 resource-not-found error code
Adds a draft-scoped scenario verifying servers return -32602 (Invalid
Params) for non-existent resources instead of the legacy -32002 or an
empty contents array. Includes a sep-2164.yaml traceability file mapping
each MUST/MUST NOT/SHOULD to its check per the proposed SEP-2484 process.
* fix: align SEP-2164 check severities with spec text (#246)
Splits sep-2164-error-code into:
- sep-2164-no-empty-contents (MUST NOT -> FAILURE)
- sep-2164-error-code (SHOULD -> WARNING)
Updates sep-2164.yaml to quote the spec text verbatim and adds an
excluded row for the client-side -32002 backcompat SHOULD.

* feat: add specVersions classification to conformance scenarios
Each scenario declares which spec versions it applies to as a list.
Scenarios that carry forward (e.g. initialize) list all applicable versions
['2025-06-18', '2025-11-25']. Scenarios removed from newer specs (e.g.
backcompat auth) only list their original version ['2025-03-26'].
- specVersions list on Scenario and ClientScenario interfaces
- --spec-version CLI filter uses simple .includes()
- Tier-check conformance matrix (Server / Client: Core / Client: Auth)
with per-version columns and unique All* count
- 7 unit tests for specVersions helpers
- Updated tier-audit skill docs with matrix format
* fix: fix console output template for tier audit skill
The template had an orphan table header (Check | Value | T2 | T1)
with no rows above the conformance matrix, causing an empty table
to render. The scorecard rows below the matrix also lacked their
own header.
Fix: two self-contained tables with clear labels — 'Conformance:'
for the per-version matrix, 'Scorecard:' for the check rows.
* fix: align skill console template with tier-check script output
Add asterisk footnote ('unique scenarios — a scenario may apply to
multiple spec versions') and rename 'Scorecard' to 'Repository Health'
to match the labels used by the tier-check CLI output.
* fix: add specVersions to CrossAppAccessCompleteFlowScenario
Added in 83c446d on main after this branch diverged.
* feat: add DNS rebinding protection conformance tests
Add a new server conformance scenario to verify that localhost MCP servers
properly validate Host headers to prevent DNS rebinding attacks.
Checks:
- localhost-host-rebinding-rejected: Verifies server returns 403 for
non-localhost Host headers (e.g., evil.example.com)
- localhost-host-valid-accepted: Verifies server accepts requests with
valid localhost Host headers
Also updates the everything-server example to use createMcpExpressApp()
which includes DNS rebinding protection by default.

- 421 Misdirected Request: RFC 7540 (semantically correct for DNS rebinding)
- Other 4xx: Implementation-specific error codes
* refactor: address PR review comments
- Simplify negative test server (remove event store, sessions)
- Update spec reference URL to security_best_practices
- Clarify scope: localhost servers without HTTPS/auth
- DRY up checks.push using spread operator
- Fix valid host check to require 2xx response
* fix: include error details in catch block
* refactor: simplify negative test server to stateless
* refactor: check both Host and Origin headers for DNS rebinding protection
- Send both Host and Origin headers in test requests so servers checking
either header will pass the conformance test
- Add second spec reference for Origin check (transports#security-warning)
- Update descriptions to mention both Host and Origin headers
- Fix protocol version to 2025-11-25
- Remove unnecessary 'as const' type assertions

spawn('npx', ...) fails on Windows because npx is actually npx.cmd.
Adding shell: true only on Windows fixes this while preserving
Unix signal handling behavior.

* add cimd test and negative test
* Improve auth-test-no-cimd.ts documentation for clarity
Address review feedback: expanded comments to better explain what CIMD is,
why this client is non-compliant, and what behavior it's testing.

* Remove .js extensions from relative imports
tsx doesn't require .js extensions for TypeScript imports.
Keeps .js for @modelcontextprotocol/sdk imports as those are external packages.
Also improves auth-test-no-cimd.ts documentation for clarity.

Add conformance test to validate that MCP servers correctly preserve
JSON Schema 2020-12 keywords ($schema, $defs, additionalProperties)
in tool definitions.
Changes:
- Add JsonSchema2020_12Scenario in src/scenarios/server/json-schema-2020-12.ts
- Add json_schema_2020_12_tool to everything-server with tools/list override
to return raw JSON Schema instead of Zod-converted schema
- Register scenario in pendingClientScenariosList (requires SDK PR #1135)
The test is added to pending because the client SDK currently strips
the JSON Schema 2020-12 keywords. Once PR #1135 is merged into the SDK,
this scenario can be moved to the active list.

* Add SEP-1330 conformance test for elicitation enum schemas
Adds server-side conformance test that validates servers properly request
elicitation with SEP-1330 enum schema improvements:
- Untitled single-select enum (type: string, enum: [...])
- Titled single-select enum (oneOf with const/title)
- Legacy titled enum (enumNames for backward compatibility)
- Untitled multi-select enum (type: array, items.enum)
- Titled multi-select enum (items.anyOf with const/title)
Test expects server to implement `test_elicitation_sep1330_enums` tool.
* Add reference server implementation for SEP-1330 conformance test
Adds test_elicitation_sep1330_enums tool to everything-server that
requests elicitation with all 5 enum schema variants. Also updates
SERVER_REQUIREMENTS.md with full specification.
* Fix prettier formatting
* only test active tests (#24)
* refactor maps to pull names from the test
* bring names back
* separate active from pending
* only test active

Add comprehensive conformance test for SEP-1034 which extends MCP
elicitation to support default values across all primitive types.
Changes:
- Add test_elicitation_sep1034_defaults tool to reference server
- Create ElicitationDefaultsScenario with 5 granular checks:
* String schema default value
* Integer schema default value
* Number schema default value
* Enum schema default value (validates it's a valid enum member)
* Boolean schema default value (regression test)
- Register scenario in index.ts
The test validates that servers properly include default values in
elicitation requestedSchema per SEP-1034 specification.
Test results: All 5 checks pass against TypeScript reference server
* spec for servers
* initial version of everything server and tests - tets are very simple
* some clean up
* lint etc.
* fix package lock agian
