Introducing Syrin: Debugging and Testing MCP Servers
Read Full Article: Introducing Syrin: Debugging and Testing MCP Servers
Building MCP servers often presents challenges such as lack of visibility into LLM decisions, tool call issues, and the absence of deterministic testing methods. Syrin, a local-first CLI debugger and test runner, addresses these challenges by offering full MCP protocol support, multi-LLM compatibility, and safe execution features. It includes CLI commands for initialization, testing, and development, and supports YAML configuration with HTTP and stdio transport. Future developments aim to enhance deterministic unit tests, workflow testing, and runtime event assertions. This matters because it provides developers with essential tools to efficiently debug and test MCP servers, improving reliability and performance.
