Summary

  • Implements concrete StdioMCPTransport class for MCP JSON-RPC 2.0 stdio protocol
  • Auto-selected when transport="stdio" in MCPServerConfig
  • Thread-safe with RLock for concurrent calls
  • Performs MCP handshake (initialize + notifications/initialized)
  • Adds 14 BDD test scenarios covering connection lifecycle, tool discovery/invocation, and MCPToolAdapter integration

Changes

  • src/cleveragents/mcp/stdio_transport.py - New StdioMCPTransport class
  • src/cleveragents/mcp/adapter.py - Auto-select stdio transport
  • src/cleveragents/mcp/__init__.py - Export StdioMCPTransport
  • features/mocks/mcp_stub_server_stdio.py - MCP stub server for testing
  • features/tdd_stdio_transport.feature - 14 BDD test scenarios
  • features/steps/tdd_stdio_transport_steps.py - Step definitions

Testing

  • All lint checks passed
  • All type checks passed (pyright)
  • 93 BDD scenarios passed (including 14 new stdio transport scenarios)

Closes #4918

Implements concrete StdioMCPTransport class that:
- Spawns MCP server as subprocess and communicates via JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdio
- Performs MCP handshake (initialize + notifications/initialized)
- Supports tools/list and tools/call methods
- Uses RLock for thread-safe concurrent access
- Auto-selected when transport='stdio' in MCPServerConfig

Adds BDD tests for stdio transport covering:
- Connection lifecycle and error handling
- Tool discovery and invocation
- MCPToolAdapter integration

CI Checks Are Failing

This PR currently has failing CI checks. Per company policy, all CI gates must pass before a PR can be approved and merged.

The required CI gates are:

  • lint — code style and formatting checks
  • typecheck — static type analysis (Pyright)
  • security — security vulnerability scanning
  • unit_tests — BDD unit test suite (Behave)
  • coverage — test coverage threshold (≥ 97%)

Please investigate the CI failures, address any issues they report, and push a fix. A full code review will be conducted once all CI checks are green.

If CI is consistently failing on infrastructure (not code) issues, please flag this in a comment so it can be investigated separately.

 auto/driver-down
Merge driver heartbeat stale; pipeline halted. Closed automatically on next clean tick.
 auto/invariant-violation
Detected master commit violating the strict merge invariant. Tracked as an issue (not a PR label); kept here for label completeness.

 auto/last-attempt-tier-min
In-cycle escalation: most recent attempt ran at the Tier -1 slot (`tier-min`). Slot's model defined in .opencode/models/tiers.yaml. Suffix is ``-min`` (not ``--1``) so the Forgejo UI reads naturally.

Rebase conflict needs LLM conflict-resolver.
 auto/needs-implementer
Failing CI needs implementer attention.
 auto/postmortem
Documenting a driver incident or rollback.
 auto/ready-to-merge
Reviewer has APPROVED this PR and no later REQUEST_CHANGES is outstanding. The merge driver requires this label to even consider a PR for merging. Set by the reviewer worker on APPROVE; cleared on REQUEST_CHANGES.
 auto/restart-throttled
Train repeatedly lost master-tempo races. Driver excludes via merge_cycle until cooldown elapses; label persists as visible history.
 auto/revert
Revert PR backing out an invariant violation. Fast-tracked through the merge driver.
 auto/sentinel
Sentinel PR duplicated from upstream into a personal fork by tools/duplicate_prs_to_fork.py for pipeline testing. Lives only in the fork; the canonical pipeline never sees it.
 auto/stale-inactivity
No implementer activity for N days. Flagged for human review. Auto-cleared on next push to head branch.
 auto/unstable
Repeatedly fails on current master (>= 3 ci-fail-on-rebased-sha releases in 12 h). Excluded from driver until human triage.
