MCP Smoke – test MCP servers using plain English commands (github.com)

When building MCP-based platforms, testing usually means manually crafting JSON-RPC requests or writing custom clients.

I built MCP Smoke as a lightweight test harness where you can:

Send real MCP requests using plain English Simulate real user/agent interactions Test tools, prompts, and resources end-to-end Plug in API keys and hit actual MCP servers

It’s useful if you're building MCP platforms and want:

Faster iteration during development Realistic testing instead of mocked flows Observability/analytics on how your MCP server behaves

Would love feedback on what kind of test scenarios or validations should be added.

Nice job! Do you plan to implement some Evals automation to this too?
I am not sure about this , should i?
