What it does

Runs the free ARC MCP Conformance Scanner as a workflow gate. Point it at a Model Context Protocol server and get a conformance report: what passes, what breaks, and what to fix first. Flagship ARC Labs tool.

Pipeline

  1. Point — server URL or local process.
  2. Scan — handshake, capability negotiation, schema checks.
  3. Grade — operator-ready findings, not a linter dump.
  4. Share — report link on the PR.
  5. Gate — fail CI on handshake or schema breaks.

Prompt skeleton

# Point the scanner at the server under test.
# Fail the job if handshake or tool schemas break.
# Attach the report URL to the PR.

Guardrails

A passing handshake is not production-ready by itself. Read the findings. Sister tool: github.com/aking-beep/mcp-conformance-scanner.

Structural dry-run

No model call. Validates required fields only.
