tests adapt to what the server declares. If it says it supports tools, tool tests become required. No false failures for features the server doesn't claim.
--strict mode exits with code 1 on required test failures. Drop it into any pipeline.
Run the full 88-test suite against a URL or stdio command. Supports auth, custom headers, env vars, timeout, retries, and category/test filtering. Returns grade, score, and detailed results.
every test links to the exact section of the MCP specification it validates. No ambiguity about what's being tested or why.
