+# MCP Fixture Smoke Harness
+
+Paperclip's MCP permission work uses deterministic fixture servers so policy
+logic can be tested without real customer credentials or live integrations.
+
+Run the local smoke:
+
+```sh
+pnpm smoke:mcp-fixtures
+```
+
+The runner starts one local stdio fixture and one remote-style HTTP fixture,
+checks the local Paperclip `/api/health` endpoint when available, then exercises:
+
+- allow and deny decisions
+- approval-gated writes
+- audit records
+- fixture runtime startup, health, slow response, crash response, and teardown
+- missing-secret and fake OAuth failure paths
+- schema-change quarantine
+- malicious metadata/result handling
+- approved-write idempotency
+
+Use a specific dev instance URL:
+
+```sh
+pnpm smoke:mcp-fixtures -- --paperclip-url http://127.0.0.1:3100
+```
+
+Require the dev instance health check:
+
+```sh
+pnpm smoke:mcp-fixtures -- --require-paperclip
+```
+
+JSON output for CI or release-smoke ingestion:
+
+```sh
+pnpm smoke:mcp-fixtures -- --json
+```
+
+## Fixture Catalog
+
+The catalog lives in `scripts/mcp-fixtures/catalog.mjs` and includes:
+
+- echo/calculator/time read tools
+- synthetic todo and KV tools
+- outbox email tools
+- mock social/blog publishing tools
+- malicious metadata and malicious result tools
+- slow and crashing stdio tools
+- fake OAuth and missing-secret tools
+
+The catalog also defines the first profile set:
+
+- `read-only`
+- `approval-gated-writes`
+- `security-hostile`
+- `runtime-lifecycle`
+
+The first-install demo definitions are:
+
+- `paperclip-self-read`
+- `child-issue-proposal`
+- `github-triage`
+- `update-sender`
+- `content-publishing`
+- `local-project-helper`
+- `ops-status`
+- `crm-sales-note-draft`
