feat(mcplocal): RBAC-bounded vllm-managed failover + name-based llm lookup

Why: when mcpd's inference proxy is unreachable, clients with a local
vllm-managed provider should be able to substitute — but only if they still
have view permission on the centralized Llm. Otherwise revoking an Llm
wouldn't actually stop a misbehaving client.

Infrastructure (the agent + mcplocal HTTP-mode wire-up will land separately
when those clients pivot to mcpd's proxy):

- LlmProviderFileEntry gains optional `failoverFor: <central llm name>`. The
  entry is otherwise the same local provider it always was; the new field
  just declares which central Llm it can substitute for.
- ProviderRegistry tracks a failover map (registerFailover / getFailoverFor /
  listFailovers). Unregister removes any failover entry pointing at the
  removed provider so we don't end up with dangling references.
- New FailoverRouter wraps a primary inference call. On primary failure: if
  a local provider is registered for the Llm, HEAD-probe `mcpd /api/v1/llms/
  :name` with the caller's bearer to verify view permission, then either
  invoke the local provider (allowed) or re-throw the primary error (403,
  401, network unreachable, anything else — all fail-closed).
- Server: GET /api/v1/llms/:idOrName accepts both CUID and human name. Lets
  FailoverRouter probe by name without a separate id-resolution call. HEAD
  derives automatically from GET in Fastify, which runs the same RBAC hook
  and drops the body — exactly what the probe needs.

Tests: 11 failover unit tests (registry map, decision flow, fail-closed for
forbidden + unreachable, checkAuth status mapping) + 4 new route tests
(name lookup, HEAD existing/missing). Full suite 1844/1844 (+14 from Phase
2's 1830). TypeScript clean across mcpd + mcplocal.

+# mcptoken + HTTP-mode mcplocal — implementation log
+
+Companion to the approved plan at `/home/michal/.claude/plans/lets-discuss-something-i-bright-lovelace.md`.
+This file is updated as each milestone lands, so you can review what was actually done vs. what was planned.
+
+## Context (why)
+
+You're running your own vLLM inference outside Claude Code and want it to consume mcpctl over MCP with the same UX Claude gets: project-scoped server discovery, proxy models, the pipeline cache. Today `mcplocal` is systemd-only and serves STDIO — unreachable from off-host and unauthenticated. This work adds:
+
+1. A containerized, network-accessible `mcplocal` serving Streamable HTTP.
+2. A new `McpToken` resource (CLI: `mcpctl get/create/delete mcptoken`) — project-scoped bearer tokens with the same RBAC stack as users. Hashed at rest; raw value shown once.
+3. Tokens as a first-class RBAC subject kind (`McpToken:<sha>`), with a creator-permission ceiling so non-admins cannot mint escalated tokens.
+4. k8s deploy (Service `mcp`, Ingress `mcp.ad.itaz.eu`, PVC-backed `FileCache`).
+5. A CLI breaking change: `mcpctl create rbac --binding edit:servers` → `--roleBindings role:edit,resource:servers`. You explicitly asked for this; only one command uses it.
+6. A product-grade `mcpctl test mcp <url>` verb for validating any Streamable-HTTP MCP endpoint, reused by smoke tests.
+
+## Branch
+
+All work lives on `feat/mcptoken` (off `main` at `3149ea3`).
+
+## Pre-work committed to main (outside this branch)
+
+Before starting the feature, we flushed your in-flight changes to main so they wouldn't travel with the branch:
+
+- **`3149ea3 fix: MCP proxy resilience — discovery cache, default liveness probes`** — per-server `tools/list` cache in `McpRouter` with positive+negative TTL so dead upstreams only stall the first call; default liveness probe (tools/list through the real production path) applied to any RUNNING instance without an explicit healthCheck. Already pushed to origin.
+
+## Status legend
+
+- ✅ done
+- 🚧 in progress
+- ⬜ not started
+
+## PR 1 — Schema + token helpers + mcpd CRUD routes ✅
+
+| # | Step | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `McpToken` Prisma model + Project/User reverse relations; `AuditEvent.tokenName` / `tokenSha` + index | ✅ |
+| 2 | `src/shared/src/tokens/index.ts` — `generateToken`, `hashToken`, `isMcpToken`, `timingSafeEqualHex`, `TOKEN_PREFIX` | ✅ |
+| 3 | `src/mcpd/src/repositories/mcp-token.repository.ts` + new interfaces in `repositories/interfaces.ts` | ✅ |
+| 4 | `src/mcpd/src/services/mcp-token.service.ts` — creator-ceiling via `rbacService.canAccess`/`canRunOperation`, raw token returned only once, auto-creates an `RbacDefinition` with subject `McpToken:<sha>` when bindings are non-empty | ✅ |
+| 5 | `src/mcpd/src/routes/mcp-tokens.ts` — POST / GET / GET:id / DELETE:id + POST:id/revoke + GET /introspect | ✅ |
+| 6 | Wired into `main.ts` — repo/service constructed, routes registered, `mcptokens` added to URL→permission map + name resolver; `/mcptokens/introspect` added to auth-skip list so mcplocal can call it with a raw McpToken bearer | ✅ |
+| 7 | RBAC extensions: new subject kind `McpToken` in `rbac-definition.schema.ts`; `mcptokens` added to `RBAC_RESOURCES` and `RESOURCE_ALIASES`; `rbac.service.ts` threads optional `mcpTokenSha` through `canAccess`, `canRunOperation`, `getAllowedScope`, `getPermissions`; resolver matches `{kind:'McpToken', name: sha}` | ✅ |
+| 8 | Unit tests — `tests/mcp-token-service.test.ts` covering: empty/clone modes, ceiling rejection, RbacDefinition auto-create with correct `McpToken:<sha>` subject, duplicate-name conflict, introspect valid/revoked/expired/unknown, revoke deletes the RbacDefinition. 11/11 green. Full mcpd suite still 648/648. | ✅ |
+
+### What this PR does NOT do yet (coming in PR 3)
+
+- The mcpd **auth middleware** does not yet dispatch on the token prefix. A raw `mcpctl_pat_…` bearer sent to any `/api/v1/*` endpoint (other than `/introspect`) is still rejected as an invalid session. That's intentional — PR 3 extends `middleware/auth.ts` to recognize both session bearers and McpToken bearers.
+- No CLI yet. Tokens can be created only via `POST /api/v1/mcptokens` for now.
+
+## PR 2 — RBAC CLI migration ✅
+
+Migrated `mcpctl create rbac` from positional flag syntax to the key=value form you asked for.
+
+Before:
+```
+mcpctl create rbac developers \
+  --subject User:alice@test.com \
+  --binding edit:servers \
+  --binding view:servers:my-ha \
+  --operation logs
+```
+After:
+```
+mcpctl create rbac developers \
+  --subject User:alice@test.com \
+  --roleBindings role:edit,resource:servers \
+  --roleBindings role:view,resource:servers,name:my-ha \
+  --roleBindings action:logs
+```
+
+| # | Step | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | New shared parser at `src/cli/src/commands/rbac-bindings.ts` exporting `parseRoleBinding(entry)` | ✅ |
+| 2 | `src/cli/src/commands/create.ts` — old `--binding`/`--operation` flags replaced with one repeatable `--roleBindings <kv>`. Uses the new parser. | ✅ |
+| 3 | Tests in `src/cli/tests/commands/create.test.ts` rewritten to the new form (8 RBAC tests updated) | ✅ |
+| 4 | New dedicated unit test `src/cli/tests/commands/rbac-bindings.test.ts` — 9 cases covering unscoped / name-scoped / action / trim / empty-value / unknown-key / action-conflict / missing-role rejections | ✅ |
+| 5 | Shell completions regenerated via `pnpm completions:generate` — both `completions/mcpctl.{bash,fish}` now offer `--roleBindings`, no longer `--binding`/`--operation` | ✅ |
+| 6 | Nothing in `docs/` or `README.md` referenced the old flags | ✅ |
+
+Full CLI suite still 406/406 green. On-disk YAML shape (`roleBindings: [...]`) is unchanged, so backups and existing `apply -f` files keep working.
+
+The extracted `parseRoleBinding` helper is what PR 3's `mcpctl create mcptoken --bind <kv>` flag will reuse.
+
+## PR 3 — CLI mcptoken verbs + mcpd auth dispatch + audit ✅
+
+| # | Step | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | `src/mcpd/src/middleware/auth.ts` — dispatch on the bearer prefix. `mcpctl_pat_…` → new `findMcpToken(hash)` dep → populates `request.mcpToken` + `request.userId = ownerId`. Other bearers → existing `findSession` path. Returns 401 for revoked, expired, or unknown tokens. Fastify module augmentation adds `request.mcpToken?: McpTokenPrincipal`. | ✅ |
+| 2 | `src/mcpd/src/main.ts` — wires `findMcpToken: mcpTokenRepo.findByHash`. Threads `mcpTokenSha` into `canAccess` / `canRunOperation` / `getAllowedScope`. Adds a second project-scope check: `McpToken` principals can only reach resources inside their bound project (additional guard on top of the route handler checks). | ✅ |
+| 3 | New auth tests (`tests/auth.test.ts`) — 3 McpToken dispatch cases: happy path sets userId + mcpToken, revoked → 401, no findMcpToken wired → 401. Session path unchanged. | ✅ |
+| 4 | `mcpctl create mcptoken <name> -p <proj> [--rbac empty\|clone] [--bind …] [--ttl …]` — new subcommand. Reuses `parseRoleBinding` from PR 2. `parseTtl` helper accepts `30d`/`12h`/`never`/ISO8601. `--force` revokes the existing active token and creates a new one. Raw token is printed once with a "copy now" banner. | ✅ |
+| 5 | `mcpctl get mcptokens` + `mcpctl get mcptoken <name> -p <proj>` + `mcpctl describe mcptoken <name> -p <proj>` + `mcpctl delete mcptoken <name> -p <proj>`. Names are project-scoped, so all verbs require `-p` unless a CUID is passed. Table columns: NAME / PROJECT / PREFIX / CREATED / LAST USED / EXPIRES / STATUS. Describe surfaces the auto-created RbacDefinition's bindings (matched by `mcptoken-<id>` name convention). | ✅ |
+| 6 | `mcpctl apply -f` — added `McpTokenSpecSchema`, `mcpton: 'mcptokens'` in `KIND_TO_RESOURCE`, and an applier that creates if missing or logs "already active — skipped" (tokens are immutable). Raw token printed on create. | ✅ |
+| 7 | Resource aliases — `mcptoken`/`mcptokens`/`token`/`tokens` all resolve to `mcptokens`. `stripInternalFields` scrubs the secret and derived fields and promotes `projectName` → `project` for YAML round-trip. | ✅ |
+| 8 | Audit pipeline — `src/mcplocal/src/audit/types.ts` gains `tokenName?`/`tokenSha?`; collector gets `setSessionMcpToken(sessionId, {tokenName, tokenSha})` alongside `setSessionUserName`, both merged into a per-session principal map. `src/mcpd/src/services/audit-event.service.ts` accepts `tokenName` and `tokenSha` query params (repo already extended in PR 1). `console/audit-types.ts` carries the new optional fields so the TUI can surface them in a follow-up. | ✅ |
+| 9 | Shell completions regenerated — `mcpctl create mcptoken` flags (`--project`, `--rbac`, `--bind`, `--ttl`, `--description`, `--force`) and the new resource alias land in both bash and fish completions. `completions.test.ts` freshness check passes. | ✅ |
+
+### What this PR does NOT do yet (coming in PR 4)
+
+- No HTTP-mode mcplocal binary yet. Tokens can be used to hit mcpd directly via `/api/v1/…` with `Authorization: Bearer mcpctl_pat_…`, but the containerized `/projects/<p>/mcp` endpoint and its token-auth preHandler don't exist yet.
+- The audit-console TUI still shows only `userName` columns; adding a `TOKEN` column is a UI polish follow-up.
+
+### Test stats
+
+- 1764/1764 tests pass workspace-wide (up from ~1750 before PR 3).
+- Build clean across all 5 packages.
+- Completions freshness check green.
+
+## PR 4 — HTTP-mode mcplocal + container + `mcpctl test mcp` + smoke ✅
+
+| # | Step | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1 | **Shared HTTP MCP client** — `src/shared/src/mcp-http/index.ts`. `McpHttpSession(url, {bearer?, headers?, timeoutMs?})` with `initialize / listTools / callTool / close / send / sendNotification`. Handles http + https, multiplexed SSE bodies, JSON-RPC id correlation. Distinct `McpProtocolError` / `McpTransportError` classes for contract-vs-transport failures. Plus `deriveBaseUrl(url)` + `mcpHealthCheck(base)`. Exported from `@mcpctl/shared`. | ✅ |
+| 2 | **`mcpctl test mcp <url>`** — new CLI verb under `src/cli/src/commands/test-mcp.ts`. Flags: `--token` (also reads `$MCPCTL_TOKEN`), `--tool`, `--args` (JSON), `--expect-tools`, `--timeout`, `-o text\|json`, `--no-health`. Exit codes: 0 PASS, 1 TRANSPORT/AUTH FAIL, 2 CONTRACT FAIL (e.g. missing tool or `isError=true`). | ✅ |
+| 3 | **Unit tests** for the verb — `src/cli/tests/commands/test-mcp.test.ts`. 9 cases: happy path, health preflight failure, `--expect-tools` miss / hit, transport throw, `--tool` + `isError` → exit 2, `-o json` report, `$MCPCTL_TOKEN` env fallback, invalid `--args`. All green. | ✅ |
+| 4 | **`src/mcplocal/src/serve.ts`** — new HTTP-only entry. Drops `StdioProxyServer` and `--upstream`; forces host/port from `MCPLOCAL_HTTP_HOST`/`MCPLOCAL_HTTP_PORT`; requires `MCPLOCAL_MCPD_URL`. Registers a Fastify preHandler that runs the new `token-auth` middleware on `/projects/*` and `/mcp`. Preserves LLM provider loading + proxymodel hot-reload watchers. | ✅ |
+| 5 | **`src/mcplocal/src/http/token-auth.ts`** — Fastify preHandler that validates `mcpctl_pat_…` bearers by calling `GET <mcpd>/api/v1/mcptokens/introspect`. Cache: 30s positive / 5s negative TTL keyed on `hashToken(raw)`. Rejects non-Bearer, non-`mcpctl_pat_`, revoked, expired, and wrong-project (403 when path `projectName` ≠ token's bound project). Sets `request.mcpToken = { tokenName, tokenSha, projectName }` for the audit collector. | ✅ |
+| 6 | **FileCache PVC plumbing** — `src/mcplocal/src/http/project-mcp-endpoint.ts` now honours `process.env.MCPLOCAL_CACHE_DIR` at both `FileCache` construction sites (gated + dynamic). No constructor change needed — `FileCache` already accepted a `dir` config; we just wire the env-derived value through. | ✅ |
+| 7 | **Audit collector integration** — when `request.mcpToken` is set, the `onsessioninitialized` handler in `project-mcp-endpoint.ts` now also calls `collector.setSessionMcpToken(id, {tokenName, tokenSha})` alongside the existing `setSessionUserName`. Session map from PR 3 merges both principals. | ✅ |
+| 8 | **Container image** — `deploy/Dockerfile.mcplocal` mirrors `Dockerfile.mcpd` shape: multi-stage Node 20 Alpine, pnpm workspace build of `@mcpctl/shared` + `@mcpctl/mcplocal`, runtime `CMD node src/mcplocal/dist/serve.js`, `EXPOSE 3200`, `VOLUME /var/lib/mcplocal/cache`, `HEALTHCHECK` on `/healthz`. | ✅ |
+| 9 | **Build + push script** — `scripts/build-mcplocal.sh` (executable, 755) mirrors `build-mcpd.sh`. Pushes to `10.0.0.194:3012/michal/mcplocal:latest`. | ✅ |
+| 10 | **`fulldeploy.sh`** — now a 4-step pipeline: (1) build + push mcpd, (2) build + push mcplocal, (3) rollout both deployments on k8s (mcplocal gated behind a `kubectl get deployment/mcplocal` check so the script stays green before the Pulumi stack lands), (4) RPM release. Smoke suite runs at the end as before. | ✅ |
+| 11 | **`mcpctl test mcp` + new create flags in completions** — bash + fish regenerated. `src/mcplocal/package.json` gains a `serve` script for convenience. | ✅ |
+| 12 | **Smoke test** — `src/mcplocal/tests/smoke/mcptoken.smoke.test.ts`. Gated on `healthz($MCPGW_URL)`; skipped with a clear warning if the gateway is unreachable. Scenarios: happy path via `mcpctl test mcp` → exit 0; cross-project → exit 1 with a 403 message; `--expect-tools __nonexistent__` → exit 2; delete-then-retry after the 5s negative-cache window → exit 1 with 401. Cleans up both projects at the end. | ✅ |
+
+### Deploy-time steps still owed (outside this repo)
+
+- **Pulumi (`../kubernetes-deployment`, stack `homelab`)** — add a `Deployment` named `mcplocal` in ns `mcpctl` pointing at `10.0.0.194:3012/michal/mcplocal:latest` (internal registry), a `Service` named `mcp` (port 3200→80, ClusterIP), an `Ingress` for `mcp.ad.itaz.eu` with TLS via the existing cluster-issuer, a PVC `mcplocal-cache` (10Gi RWO, mounted `/var/lib/mcplocal/cache`), and a NetworkPolicy mirroring mcpd's. Required env: **just `MCPLOCAL_MCPD_URL`** (point at `http://mcpd.mcpctl.svc.cluster.local:3100`). Optionally `MCPLOCAL_TOKEN_POSITIVE_TTL_MS` / `MCPLOCAL_TOKEN_NEGATIVE_TTL_MS` for stricter revocation. `fulldeploy.sh` already runs `pulumi preview` first and halts on drift.
+- **No pod-level secret required** (revised from earlier draft) — the pod has no persistent identity to mcpd. Every inbound `Authorization: Bearer mcpctl_pat_…` is forwarded verbatim to mcpd, and mcpd's auth middleware resolves the McpToken principal. This eliminates the original `MCPLOCAL_MCPD_TOKEN` secret and its rotation story. Trade-off: a token with `--rbac=empty` can't read `/api/v1/projects/:name/servers`, but it also can't meaningfully serve MCP, so this is the right failure mode. See `src/mcplocal/src/serve.ts` header comment.
+- **LLM provider config** — if any project served by this pod is `gated: true`, mount your `~/.mcpctl/config.json` as a ConfigMap at `/root/.mcpctl/config.json`. Ungated projects (proxyModel `content-pipeline` or no LLM-driven stages) need nothing.
+
+### Test stats
+
+- 1773/1773 workspace tests pass (up from 1764 before PR 4).
+- All five packages build clean.
+- Shell completions fresh.
+- `mcpctl test mcp --help` and `mcpctl create mcptoken --help` render expected surfaces.
+
+## End-to-end verification (manual, after Pulumi resources land)
+
+```bash
+# From a workstation outside the k8s cluster:
+mcpctl create project vllm --force
+TOK=$(mcpctl create mcptoken vllm-token --project vllm --rbac clone | grep mcpctl_pat_)
+export MCPCTL_TOKEN="$TOK"
+
+# Probe the public gateway
+mcpctl test mcp https://mcp.ad.itaz.eu/projects/vllm/mcp --expect-tools begin_session
+
+# Negative: wrong project → exit 1
+mcpctl test mcp https://mcp.ad.itaz.eu/projects/other/mcp
+echo $?   # 1
+
+# Audit — the call should be tagged with tokenName=vllm-token
+mcpctl console --audit  # look for the TOKEN column once the TUI patch lands
+```
+
+## Design decisions recap (so you don't have to re-read the plan)
+
+| Decision | Choice |
+|---|---|
+| Transport | Streamable HTTP only |
+| Binary shape | Same `@mcpctl/mcplocal` package, two entry files (`main.ts` STDIO, `serve.ts` HTTP) |
+| Container runtime | Node (not bun-compiled) — mirrors mcpd |
+| Cache | PVC at `/var/lib/mcplocal/cache` |
+| Hostname | k8s Service `mcp`, Ingress `mcp.ad.itaz.eu` |
+| Token format | `mcpctl_pat_<32-byte base62>`, stored as SHA-256, shown-once at create |
+| Resource | `McpToken`, CLI noun `mcptoken`, one-project-per-token, FK cascade |
+| Subject kind | New `McpToken:<sha>` |
+| TTL | No default. Optional `--ttl 30d` / `never` / ISO date |
+| Default bindings | `--rbac=empty` (default), `--rbac=clone`, `--bind <kv>` — creator ceiling enforced server-side |
+| Binding CLI | `--roleBindings role:view,resource:servers[,name:foo]` or `--roleBindings action:logs` |
+| Project enforcement | Endpoint visibility only (no strict create-time check) — same mechanism Claude uses |

+# Secret backends
+
+`mcpctl` stores the raw data for `Secret` resources in a pluggable **backend**.
+The default is `plaintext` — the secret payload lives in Postgres as plain JSON
+— which is fine for laptop development but a poor fit for shared clusters. For
+production, point at an external KV store and delete secrets from the DB after
+migration.
+
+This guide covers the model, the shipped drivers, and how to migrate without
+downtime.
+
+## Model
+
+- A `SecretBackend` resource is a single named driver instance (e.g. a pointer
+  at one OpenBao deployment).
+- Every `Secret` row carries a `backendId` FK — the backend that owns its data.
+- Exactly one `SecretBackend` has `isDefault: true`. New secrets created through
+  the API/CLI land on that backend.
+- The `plaintext` backend is seeded at startup and named `default`. It cannot
+  be deleted — there needs to always be one row where the driver's own
+  credentials can bootstrap from (see below).
+
+## CLI
+
+```bash
+mcpctl get secretbackends              # list backends
+mcpctl describe secretbackend <name>   # inspect config (credentials masked)
+mcpctl create secretbackend <name> --type plaintext [--default] [--description ...]
+mcpctl create secretbackend <name> --type openbao \
+  --url http://bao.example:8200 \
+  --token-secret bao-creds/token \
+  [--namespace <ns>] [--mount secret] [--path-prefix mcpctl] \
+  [--default]
+mcpctl delete secretbackend <name>     # blocked if any secret still points at it
+
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao --names a,b --keep-source
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao --dry-run
+```
+
+Anything you can do with `create secretbackend` also works via `apply -f`:
+
+```yaml
+kind: secretbackend
+name: bao
+type: openbao
+description: "shared cluster OpenBao"
+isDefault: true
+config:
+  url: http://bao.svc.cluster.local:8200
+  tokenSecretRef: { name: bao-creds, key: token }
+  namespace: platform
+```
+
+## Drivers
+
+### plaintext
+
+Trivial. `Secret.data` holds the JSON, `externalRef` is empty.
+
+- Storage: Postgres column.
+- Bootstrap: seeded as `default` at startup.
+- Cost: zero setup, zero encryption at rest, full access for any DB reader.
+
+Use for development, CI, or single-tenant self-hosts where the DB itself is
+treated as sensitive.
+
+### openbao
+
+Talks HTTP to an [OpenBao](https://openbao.org) (MPL 2.0 Vault fork) KV v2
+mount. Also compatible with HashiCorp Vault KV v2 — the wire protocol is the
+same.
+
+| Config key       | Required? | Description |
+|------------------|-----------|-------------|
+| `url`            | yes       | Base URL, e.g. `http://bao.svc.cluster.local:8200`. |
+| `tokenSecretRef` | yes       | `{ name, key }` pointing at a `Secret` on the **plaintext** backend that holds the bootstrap token. |
+| `mount`          | no        | KV v2 mount name. Default `secret`. |
+| `pathPrefix`     | no        | Path prefix under the mount. Default `mcpctl`. Secrets land at `<mount>/<pathPrefix>/<secretName>`. |
+| `namespace`      | no        | `X-Vault-Namespace` header for OpenBao/Vault Enterprise namespaces. |
+
+The driver only stores a reference in `Secret.externalRef` (`mount/path`). The
+`Secret.data` column is left empty for openbao-backed rows — you can safely
+drop DB-level access to secrets after migration.
+
+#### Required OpenBao policy
+
+Minimum token policy for a backend that lives at `secret/mcpctl/`:
+
+```hcl
+path "secret/data/mcpctl/*" {
+  capabilities = ["create", "read", "update"]
+}
+
+path "secret/metadata/mcpctl/*" {
+  capabilities = ["list", "delete"]
+}
+
+path "secret/metadata/mcpctl/" {
+  capabilities = ["list"]
+}
+```
+
+Grant `delete` on `metadata/...` only if you need mcpctl to fully remove
+secrets — OpenBao soft-deletes until the metadata is gone.
+
+#### Chicken-and-egg: where does the OpenBao token live?
+
+mcpd reads the OpenBao token from a `Secret` on the **plaintext** backend.
+That's the whole point of keeping plaintext around — it's the trust root:
+
+1. Operator creates a plaintext `Secret` holding the bootstrap token.
+2. Operator creates the `openbao` backend, pointing at that secret via
+   `tokenSecretRef`.
+3. Operator runs `mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao` to move all
+   other secrets off plaintext.
+4. After migration, the only sensitive row left on plaintext is the OpenBao
+   token itself. DB access is now equivalent to OpenBao token access (a single
+   key), not equivalent to all API keys in the system.
+
+Follow-up work (not shipped yet) replaces static token auth with Kubernetes
+ServiceAccount auth so no bootstrap token is needed at all.
+
+## Migration — `mcpctl migrate secrets`
+
+Atomicity is **per secret**, not per batch. Remote writes can't roll back, so we
+don't pretend. For each secret the service:
+
+1. Reads the plaintext from the source driver.
+2. Writes it to the destination driver.
+3. Updates the `Secret` row: flips `backendId`, sets new `externalRef`, clears
+   `data`.
+4. Deletes from source (skipped with `--keep-source`).
+
+If the command is interrupted between step 2 and 3, the destination has an
+orphan entry but the source still owns the row. Re-running is idempotent — the
+service skips secrets that are already on the destination and picks up the
+rest.
+
+```bash
+# Dry-run first: see what would move.
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao --dry-run
+
+# Migrate everything.
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao
+
+# Migrate a subset only.
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao --names api-keys,oauth-client
+
+# Leave the source copy in place (useful for A/B validation).
+mcpctl migrate secrets --from default --to bao --keep-source
+```
+
+The command prints a per-secret summary (migrated / skipped / failed) and exits
+non-zero if any secret failed. Ctrl-C during the run is safe — restart when you
+want, no duplicate writes.
+
+## RBAC
+
+- `resource: secretbackends` — gated like any other resource (`view`,
+  `create`, `edit`, `delete`).
+- `role: run, action: migrate-secrets` — required to call
+  `POST /api/v1/secrets/migrate`.
+
+Describe output masks config values whose keys look like credentials
+(`token`, `secret`, `password`, `key`), so `mcpctl describe secretbackend` is
+safe to paste into tickets.

+Demo: make an MCP request against mcplocal using an McpToken bearer.

+This is the standalone counterpart to `mcpctl test mcp` — intended to show

+
+Usage:
+    # Default: localhost mcplocal, sre project, token from $MCPCTL_TOKEN
+    export MCPCTL_TOKEN=mcpctl_pat_...
+    python3 scripts/demo-mcp-call.py

+        --tool begin_session \\
