### Description (declared)

# mcp-agent-kit

`mcp-agent-kit` is an enterprise-grade scaffolding kit and runtime foundation that enables developers to build, validate, and ship a fully compliant, production-ready Model Context Protocol (MCP) server with Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol support and portable Agent Skill (`SKILL.md`) packaging in under 30 minutes. Built entirely with the Python standard library for zero runtime dependencies in the protocol core, it enforces strict stateless MCP specification compliance (version 2026-07-28), deterministic resource listing, schema design validation, dual-era negotiation, and automated tool-to-skill card mapping.

## Quick Start (5 Lines)

```bash
pip install mcp-agent-kit
create-mcp-agent my_agent
cd my_agent
python validate.py
python server.py
```

## End-to-End Demo Walkthrough (with Real Outputs)

Follow these step-by-step instructions to scaffold, validate, test, and run an MCP agent end-to-end.

### Step 1: Scaffold a New Agent
Run the generator CLI to create a new agent (e.g. `demo_agent`):

```bash
python -m mcp_agent_kit demo_agent --desc "Use when computing numerical metrics and data summaries. Do not use for unstructured text parsing."
```

**Terminal Output:**
```text
Scaffolding MCP agent 'demo_agent' into 'demo_agent'...
✓ Agent 'demo_agent' successfully created in 'demo_agent'.
Next steps:
  cd demo_agent
  python validate.py
```

---

### Step 2: Run Compliance Validation
Navigate into the agent directory and execute `validate.py`:

```bash
cd demo_agent
python validate.py
```

**Terminal Output:**
```text
✓ MCP server/discover responds correctly
✓ tools/list is deterministically ordered
✓ all tool schemas pass design rules
✓ A2A agent.json is valid
✓ SKILL.md portable core is valid
✓ dual-era client probe works against local server
```

---

### Step 3: Run the Dual-Era Probe Client Test
Verify client negotiation and tool execution via `client_test.py`:

```bash
python client_test.py
```

**Terminal Output:**
```text
