Stateless MCP Incident Lab — Raw TypeScript

Independent raw HTTP/JSON-RPC implementation of the Stateless MCP Incident Lab for Node.js 24. It implements MCP wire shapes directly and intentionally does not depend on the official MCP SDK.

Capabilities

• Stateless per-request protocol-version and capability negotiation

• Streamable HTTP JSON responses and SSE diagnostic progress

• Tool, resource, resource-template, and prompt catalogs

• Synthetic incident lifecycle and signed multi-round remediation approval

• Public/private response caching with stale-on-refresh-error behavior

• CLI workflows, structured telemetry, health readiness, and security bounds

All remediation effects are simulated.

Quick start

npm ci
npm run build
npm start

The server binds to 127.0.0.1:3101 by default and exposes POST /raw/mcp plus GET /raw/healthz. Override the bind with HOST and PORT. Production replicas must share an MCP_REQUEST_STATE_SECRET of at least 32 bytes and set DYNAMODB_TABLE (plus optional DYNAMODB_ENDPOINT for DynamoDB Local); development uses process-local ephemeral key and effect storage. In another shell:

node dist/src/main.js --version
node dist/src/main.js discover http://127.0.0.1:3101/raw/mcp

CLI

The incident-mcp binary supports these command families:

incident-mcp discover <url>
incident-mcp tools list|inspect|call <url> [...]
incident-mcp resources list|templates|read <url> [...]
incident-mcp prompts list|get <url> [...]
incident-mcp demo <url> --approve|--decline|--cancel

Tool and prompt arguments are supplied as one JSON object, either positionally or after a --json marker. Global diagnostic options include --wire with sensitive-value redaction and --no-cache. tools inspect exits 3 when the named tool is absent from the catalog.

Docker

Build and run the minimal runtime image:

docker build --target runtime -t incident-mcp-raw .
docker run --rm -p 127.0.0.1:3101:3101 \
  -e HOST=0.0.0.0 \
  -e MCP_REQUEST_STATE_SECRET="$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
  -e EFFECT_STORE=memory \
  incident-mcp-raw
# Or inspect the image version without starting the service:
docker run --rm incident-mcp-raw --version

The test stage requires the external behavioral repository as a named build context:

docker build --target test \
  --build-context conformance=../stateless-mcp-incident-lab-conformance \
  -t incident-mcp-raw-test .

Runtime behavior

The public HTTP/CLI path uses the same application modules exercised by conformance. Incident lifecycle records and conditional remediation claims share the configured DynamoDB table in production; development uses in-memory stores. The CLI applies MCP cache hints in-process, supports explicit bypass, and serves stale entries only after refresh failure with a warning. Diagnostic SSE work is paced and request-scoped, stops on disconnect or deadline, and returns the actual diagnostic result. Live JSON requests enforce a five-second deadline and emit structured, trace-correlated telemetry with bearer-bearing resource names redacted.

Development and verification

npm run format
npm run lint
npm run typecheck
npm run test:coverage
npm run test:mutation
npm run build
npm run test:conformance
npm audit --audit-level=high

The behavioral suite is resolved from CONFORMANCE_PATH, defaulting to the sibling ../stateless-mcp-incident-lab-conformance/conformance directory.

Coverage is enforced at 95% lines, 90% statements, 80% branches, and 95% functions. The remaining lines are defensive malformed-internal-input paths and the direct-process bootstrap. Mutation testing covers incident lifecycle, MRTR, cache, property laws, header/request-state security, and schema validation, with an enforced score of at least 80%.
