mcp-hook-conformance
<!-- badges --> <!-- /badges -->Test-harness CLI that audits any MCP server for Claude Code v2.1.118 mcp_tool lifecycle-hook readiness.
The third foundation pillar:
- mcp-protocol-conformance says: does the server speak the protocol?
- mcp-server-attestation says: who signed this server?
- mcp-hook-conformance says: is it safe to call this tool from a Stop, PreCompact, or UserPromptSubmit hook?
A note from us
We have been building tools and systems for ourselves for the past two years. The fact that this repo is small and has few stars is not because it is new. It is because we only just decided to share what we have built. It is not a fresh experiment, it is a long story with a recent commit.
We love building things and sharing them. We do not love social media tactics, growth hacks, or chasing stars and followers. So this repo is small. The code is real, it gets used, issues get answered. Judge for yourself.
If it helps you, sharing, testing, and feedback help us. If it could be better, an issue is more useful. If you build something with it, tell us at hello@studiomeyer.io. That genuinely makes our day.
From a small studio in Palma de Mallorca.

Subcommands
This is a CLI, not an MCP server. Do NOT run mcp-hook-conformance via mcp-inspector — the package declares mcp.specVersion for the targets it audits, not because it speaks MCP itself. Inspector will EACCES on dist/index.js (which is the library export) by design.
Audit suites
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
