One-command setup replaces the 6-step manual flow — `mcpctl create
secretbackend bao --type openbao --wizard` takes the OpenBao admin token
once, provisions a narrow policy + token role, mints the first periodic
token, stores it on mcpd, verifies end-to-end, and prints the migration
command. The admin token is NEVER persisted.
The stored credential auto-rotates daily: mcpd mints a successor via the
token role (self-rotation capability is part of the policy it was issued
with), verifies the successor, writes it over the backing Secret, then
revokes the predecessor by accessor. TTL 720h means a week of rotation
failures still leaves 20+ days of runway.
Shared:
- New `@mcpctl/shared/vault` — pure HTTP wrappers (verifyHealth,
ensureKvV2, writePolicy, ensureTokenRole, mintRoleToken, revokeAccessor,
lookupSelf, testWriteReadDelete) and policy HCL builder.
mcpd:
- `tokenMeta Json @default("{}")` on SecretBackend. Self-healing schema
migration — empty default lets `prisma db push` add the column cleanly.
- SecretBackendRotator.rotateOne: mint → verify → persist → revoke-old →
update tokenMeta. Failures surface via `lastRotationError` on the row;
the old token keeps working.
- SecretBackendRotatorLoop: on startup rotates overdue backends, schedules
per-backend timers with ±10min jitter. Stops cleanly on shutdown.
- New `POST /api/v1/secretbackends/:id/rotate` (operation
`rotate-secretbackend` — added to bootstrap-admin's auto-migrated ops
alongside migrate-secrets, which was previously missing too).
CLI:
- `--wizard` on `create secretbackend` delegates to the interactive flow.
All prompts can be pre-answered via flags (--url, --admin-token,
--mount, --path-prefix, --policy-name, --token-role,
--no-promote-default) for CI.
- `mcpctl rotate secretbackend <name>` — convenience verb; hits the new
rotate endpoint.
- `describe secretbackend` renders a Token health section (healthy /
STALE / WARNING / ERROR) with generated/renewal/expiry timestamps and
last rotation error. Only shown when tokenMeta.rotatable is true — the
existing k8s-auth + static-token backends don't surface it.
Tests: 15 vault-client unit tests (shared), 8 rotator unit tests (mcpd),
3 wizard flow tests (cli, including a regression test that the admin
token never appears in stdout). Full suite 1885/1885 (+32). Completions
regenerated for the new flags.
Out of scope (explicit): kubernetes-auth wizard, Vault Enterprise
namespaces in the wizard path, rotation for non-wizard static-token
backends. See plan file for details.

Delivers the final piece of the mcptoken stack: a containerized,
network-accessible mcplocal that serves Streamable-HTTP MCP to off-host
clients (the vLLM use case), authenticated by project-scoped McpTokens.
New binary (same package, new entry):
- src/mcplocal/src/serve.ts — HTTP-only entry. Reads MCPLOCAL_MCPD_URL,
MCPLOCAL_MCPD_TOKEN, MCPLOCAL_HTTP_HOST/PORT, MCPLOCAL_CACHE_DIR from
env. No StdioProxyServer, no --upstream.
- src/mcplocal/src/http/token-auth.ts — Fastify preHandler that
validates mcpctl_pat_ bearers via mcpd's /api/v1/mcptokens/introspect.
30s positive / 5s negative TTL. Rejects wrong-project with 403.
Shared HTTP MCP client:
- src/shared/src/mcp-http/ — reusable McpHttpSession with initialize,
listTools, callTool, close. Handles http+https, SSE, id correlation,
distinct McpProtocolError / McpTransportError. Plus mcpHealthCheck
and deriveBaseUrl helpers.
New CLI verb `mcpctl test mcp <url>`:
- Flags: --token (also $MCPCTL_TOKEN), --tool, --args (JSON),
--expect-tools, --timeout, -o text|json, --no-health.
- Exit codes: 0 PASS, 1 TRANSPORT/AUTH FAIL, 2 CONTRACT FAIL.
Container + deploy:
- deploy/Dockerfile.mcplocal (Node 20 alpine, multi-stage, pnpm
workspace, CMD node src/mcplocal/dist/serve.js, VOLUME
/var/lib/mcplocal/cache, HEALTHCHECK on :3200/healthz).
- scripts/build-mcplocal.sh mirrors build-mcpd.sh.
- fulldeploy.sh is now a 4-step pipeline that also builds + rolls out
mcplocal (gated on `kubectl get deployment/mcplocal` so the script
stays green before the Pulumi stack lands).
Audit + cache:
- project-mcp-endpoint.ts passes MCPLOCAL_CACHE_DIR into FileCache at
both construction sites and, when request.mcpToken is present, calls
collector.setSessionMcpToken(id, ...) so audit events carry the
tokenName/tokenSha.
Tests:
- 9 unit cases on `mcpctl test mcp` (happy path, health miss,
expect-tools hit/miss, transport throw, tool isError, json report,
$MCPCTL_TOKEN env fallback, invalid --args).
- Smoke test src/mcplocal/tests/smoke/mcptoken.smoke.test.ts —
gated on healthz($MCPGW_URL), skipped cleanly when unreachable.
Covers happy path, wrong-project 403, --expect-tools contract
failure, and revocation 401 within the negative-cache window.
1773/1773 workspace tests pass. Pulumi resources (Deployment, Service,
Ingress, PVC, Secret, NetworkPolicy) still need to land in
../kubernetes-deployment before the smoke gate flips on.

Adds a new McpToken Prisma model (project-scoped, SHA-256 hashed at rest,
optional expiry, revocable) plus backing repository, service, and REST
routes. Tokens are a first-class RBAC subject: new 'McpToken' kind is
added to the subject enum and the service auto-creates an RbacDefinition
with subject McpToken:<sha> when bindings are provided.
Creator-permission ceiling: the service rejects any requested binding
the creator cannot already satisfy themselves (re-uses
rbacService.canAccess / canRunOperation). rbacMode=clone snapshots the
creator's full permissions into the token.
Routes:
POST /api/v1/mcptokens create (returns raw token once)
GET /api/v1/mcptokens list (filter by project)
GET /api/v1/mcptokens/:id describe (no secret in response)
POST /api/v1/mcptokens/:id/revoke soft-delete + remove RbacDef
DELETE /api/v1/mcptokens/:id hard-delete
GET /api/v1/mcptokens/introspect validate raw bearer (used by mcplocal)
Extends AuditEvent with optional tokenName/tokenSha fields (indexed) so
token-driven activity can be filtered later. Adds token helpers in
@mcpctl/shared: TOKEN_PREFIX='mcpctl_pat_', generateToken, hashToken,
isMcpToken, timingSafeEqualHex.
Follow-up PRs add the auth-hook dispatch on the prefix, the CLI verbs,
and the HTTP-mode mcplocal that calls /introspect.

Introduce a Helm-chart-like template system for MCP servers. Templates are
YAML files in templates/ that get seeded into the DB on startup. Users can
browse them with `mcpctl get templates`, inspect with `mcpctl describe
template`, and instantiate with `mcpctl create server --from-template=`.
Also adds Portainer deployment scripts, mcplocal systemd service,
Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint, and RPM packaging for mcpctl-local.

Replace the confused Profile abstraction with a dedicated Secret resource
following Kubernetes conventions. Servers now have env entries with inline
values or secretRef references. Env vars are resolved and passed to
containers at startup (fixes existing gap).
- Add Secret CRUD (model, repo, service, routes, CLI commands)
- Server env: {name, value} or {name, valueFrom: {secretRef: {name, key}}}
- Add env-resolver utility shared by instance startup and config generation
- Remove all profile-related code (models, services, routes, CLI, tests)
- Update backup/restore for secrets instead of profiles
- describe secret masks values by default, --show-values to reveal
