- Created TestGitHubMCPMockBackend for testing without credentials - Created TestGitHubMCPRealBackend for testing with real GitHub MCP server - Tests include: initialization, tools/list, and individual tool calls - Proper SSE response parsing for streamable HTTP transport - Tests follow existing patterns from tavily_test.go and playwright_test.go - Handle authentication with GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN - Test discovers all tools and validates each one Co-authored-by: lpcox <15877973+lpcox@users.noreply.github.com>
- Added helper function to get keys from maps for debugging - Added better error logging to understand response structure - Identified existing issue with HTTP backend session management - Issue affects tools/list after initialize (same as tavily test) - Test structure complete, ready for real GitHub backend testing Co-authored-by: lpcox <15877973+lpcox@users.noreply.github.com>
- Mock GitHub MCP test passes successfully - Real GitHub MCP test properly skips without token - All formatting, linting, and test checks pass - make agent-finished completes successfully Co-authored-by: lpcox <15877973+lpcox@users.noreply.github.com>
