+# MCP Testing Checklist - Proper Development Process
+
+## ❌ WRONG WAY (What We Did)
+- [x] Test with manual JSON-RPC: `echo '{}' | python3 server.py`
+- [x] Test interactive mode: `python3 server.py --interactive`  
+- [x] Test direct tool calls: `python3 debug.py tool_name`
+- [x] Assume stdio transport works with Q CLI
+- [x] Add features before basic connection works
+
+## ✅ RIGHT WAY (What We Should Do)
+
+### Phase 1: Basic Q CLI Integration
+- [ ] Enable Q CLI debug logging: `export Q_LOG_LEVEL=trace`
+- [ ] Study existing working MCP servers in Q CLI
+- [ ] Create minimal server that only handles `initialize`
+- [ ] Test ONLY in Q CLI context: `q mcp add --name test --command "server.py"`
+- [ ] Verify server loads without "Transport closed" error
+
+### Phase 2: Protocol Compliance  
+- [ ] Study Q CLI MCP transport mechanism (not stdio)
+- [ ] Implement proper transport layer
+- [ ] Add server-side logging for all Q CLI interactions
+- [ ] Test `initialize` → `tools/list` → `tools/call` sequence
+- [ ] Verify JSON-RPC responses match Q CLI expectations
+
+### Phase 3: Functionality Testing
+- [ ] Add one tool at a time
+- [ ] Test each tool in Q CLI after adding
+- [ ] Verify tool responses display correctly in Q CLI
+- [ ] Test error handling in Q CLI context
+- [ ] Verify server stability during Q CLI sessions
+
+### Phase 4: Production Readiness
+- [ ] Load testing with multiple Q CLI sessions
+- [ ] Error recovery testing
+- [ ] Performance benchmarking in Q CLI
+- [ ] Documentation for Q CLI MCP development
+- [ ] Automated Q CLI integration tests
+
+## 🔍 Debug Commands
+
+```bash
+# Enable Q CLI debugging
+export Q_LOG_LEVEL=trace
+
+# Check Q CLI logs
+find /tmp -name "*qlog*" -o -name "*qchat*" 2>/dev/null
+tail -f /tmp/qlog/qchat.log
+
+# List working MCP servers
+q mcp list
+
+# Test MCP server loading
+q mcp add --name test-server --command "/path/to/server.py"
+
+# Remove failed server
+q mcp remove --name test-server
+```
+
+## 🚨 Red Flags (Stop Development)
+- "Transport closed" errors
+- Server loads but tools don't work in Q CLI
+- Manual testing works but Q CLI fails
+- No visibility into Q CLI interactions
+- Adding features before basic connection works
+
+## ✅ Green Flags (Continue Development)  
+- Server loads in Q CLI without errors
+- Tools list appears in Q CLI
+- Tool calls work and display results
+- Server remains stable during Q CLI use
+- Comprehensive logging shows all interactions
