+
+# MCP usage
+
+Requestable protocol for **shipped** and **local-overlay** MCP servers. Agents load this stem via one-liner wiring — do not copy tool schemas into prompts; discover them at runtime.
+
+Does not replace Figma mockup-review (that checklist stays on `mockup-review`). Does not add pipeline agents or required handoff stems.
+
+## Presence (runtime catalog is SoT)
+
+1. Inspect the **session MCP catalog** (server names + `serverStatus`). Project `mcp.json` / `.mcp.json` is a hint, not proof the server is up (user-level and plugin servers never appear there).
+2. Treat `error`, `needsAuth`, and `loading` as **unavailable**. Authenticate only when this task needs that server.
+3. **Discover tool schemas before calling.** Never invent tool names or arguments from memory.
+4. Match overlay servers by **documented aliases** or exact catalog ids. Prefer a ready `plugin-*` id over an unknown similarly named server; if several match, ask rather than guessing.
+5. If two servers expose the same product (plugin + project entry), use the **ready** one; do not call both.
+
+## Classes
+
+| Class | Who adds it | Policy |
+|-------|-------------|--------|
+| **Shipped** | Preset `mcp.json` | Assume it should be there; call when the task fits; degrade if down (do not block unless noted below) |
+| **Local overlay** | Consumer project or user MCP | Use only when present **and** the task fits. Never a required pipeline step |
+
+Shipped in every preset: **Context7** (library docs). Other shipped servers are stack-specific — see adapter **Stack notes**.
+
+## Context7 (shipped)
+
+**When to call** (after lockfile / manifest + sibling files still do not confirm the symbol):
+
+- Third-party API that would otherwise get `// VERIFY: lib.symbol @ version`
+- Version-sensitive framework or SDK APIs
+- Migrations / major upgrades
+- Library is in the lockfile but the signature is unclear
+
+**When not to call:** repo public API; a sibling file already imports the symbol; a trivial call already in this module.
+
+**Flow:**
+
+1. Discover server `context7`.
+2. Resolve a library id, then query docs (read the live schema; typical names `resolve-library-id` then `query-docs`).
+3. Put the **installed major** from the project manifest into the query.
+4. Cap: **≤3 doc queries per question**.
+5. Source priority: lockfile / sibling code **>** Context7 **>** training data. If docs disagree with the installed major, keep the installed API.
+6. If Context7 is down: `// VERIFY` (or stack equivalent) and say MCP was unavailable. **Do not block** the task.
+
+## Local overlay protocol
+
+If a matching server is ready and a **task signal** fires → discover and use. Otherwise continue from files / native tools (`gh`, repo docs, source).
+
+Absence of an overlay is **not** `BLOCKED` unless the user required that MCP as source of truth.
+
+### Observability (Sentry, Datadog, similar)
+
+**Signal:** production error, event/trace id, APM / latency, pasted dashboard or issue URL.
+
+Use the **first ready** observability MCP. Do not invent metrics or stack traces. Do not require two observability servers.
+
+### Tickets (Linear, Jira, Notion, similar)
+
+**Signal:** ticket/page URL in the prompt or brief, or an explicit “pull from \<tracker\>”.
+
+Read-only by default. Task-folder artifacts (`brief.md`, `decomposition.md`) remain SoT — do not replace them with a tracker page. Write back to the tracker **only** if the user asked.
+
+### Component-library overlay
+
+**Signal:** UI component public API, stories, controls, or explicit component-docs MCP.
+
+If such a server is ready, use it for documented props/variants instead of inventing them. If it is down, read story/source files. **Block** only when the user required that MCP as SoT.
+
+Usual aliases and runtime needs live in frontend **Stack notes**. Do not ship this server in preset `mcp.json`.
+
+### GitHub MCP
+
+Native `gh` / git remain SoT for PRs and checks. A GitHub MCP may be used when present; do not require it.
+
+## Figma
+
+Policy is stack-class-specific — see adapter **Stack notes**. If a Figma **plugin** and a project `figma` server are both present, use the ready one and do not duplicate calls.
+
+## Forbidden
+
+- Secrets in `mcp.json` / `.mcp.json`
+- New pipeline agents or required handoffs for overlay MCP
+- Treating overlay absence as blocked (except user-required SoT)
+- Tracker/admin write tools without an explicit ask
+- Calling overlay MCP “just in case” on unrelated tasks
+
+## Stack notes
+
+- Pipeline **`mockup-reviewer`** is the only agent that reads Figma for mockup review. See `mockup-review`.
+- Shipped besides Context7: browser automation MCP (`playwright` / `playwright-test` / `user-playwright`) and `chrome-devtools`.
+- **Split:** Playwright MCP → e2e agents (planner/generator/healer), selector checks, spec reproduction. Chrome DevTools MCP → `debugger` / `performance-auditor` against a **running app** (console, network, traces). Not a substitute for e2e.
+- **Storybook overlay** (not shipped): aliases `storybook`, `user-storybook`, `plugin-storybook`, `storybook-mcp-addon`. Needs Storybook running (often `http://localhost:6006/mcp`). Discover docs/dev/testing toolsets. If down, read story/source files. Block only if the user required Storybook MCP as SoT.
+- `init` **merges** `mcpServers`: preset keys update; extra local servers are kept. User-level MCP is never touched.
+- If a Figma plugin is already connected, do not also require the project `figma` server.

+# Mockup review checklist
+
+On-demand reviewer checklist for Figma mockups. **Procedure:** skill `mockup-review`. **Agent:** `mockup-reviewer`. Do not inline this checklist into the agent prompt.
+
+Stack-agnostic: no app-source globs, Playwright, or `xcodebuild`. Breakpoint **examples** live in adapter **Stack notes** only — do not FAIL on exact pixels.
+
+## When to load
+
+- Pipeline step `mockup-reviewer` (standalone intent `mockup-review` or embedded after analyst)
+- Prompt or `brief.md` contains a `figma.com` URL on a UI-capable stack
+- User asks to review a mockup / Figma file (not a code MR)
+
+## Inputs
+
+1. Task `artifact-manifest.json`, then prompt Figma URL(s); `brief.md` / `decomposition.md` when present
+2. Skill `mockup-review` + this rule
+3. If plugin skills `figma-use` / `figma-design-to-code` are installed: **reference** them for URL parse and MCP invocation only — do not copy their bodies; do not run design-to-code
+
+## MCP-first
+
+Required when MCP is up: `get_metadata`, `get_design_context`, `search_design_system`, `get_variable_defs`, `get_screenshot`. Optional: `get_libraries`, `get_code_connect_map`.
+
+**Forbidden:** `use_figma`, `create_new_file`, `generate_*`, `weave_*`, `upload_assets`, `send_code_connect_mappings`. FigJam URL → `BLOCKED_MCP` / out of scope (do not call `get_figjam` unless the URL is a FigJam board — then still `BLOCKED_MCP`).
+
+Cite `fileKey` + node IDs. Screenshots are supporting evidence, not a second reviewer. No screenshot-only path.
+
+**Node caps:** ≤12 screen-level frames; `get_metadata` depth ≤3 named-frame levels; ≤3 screenshots (prefer one per small/medium/large). `search_design_system` once; `get_variable_defs` once per file. No node-id on URL: pick top-level frames matching the feature name; if still unbounded → `BLOCKED_MCP` (or `PASS_WITH_NOTES` only if MCP returned a tiny file) — do not dump the whole file.
+
+**Degradation:** MCP unavailable or OAuth fail → verdict `BLOCKED_MCP`. Do **not** invent DS compliance claims.
+
+## Review dimensions
+
+### DS components (AC-4)
+
+When an attached library is detectable (`search_design_system` / `get_metadata`): list **library component instances vs custom frames** with file/node references. Flag substitutions where a DS equivalent exists.
+
+- Critical DS reimplementation (custom frame where an attached-library component exists) → **FAIL**
+- One-off frame, no DS equivalent; mixed/unpublished library → WARN or notes (`PASS_WITH_NOTES`)
+- No attached library detectable → notes only; do not invent DS claims (`PASS_WITH_NOTES`)
+
+Confidence: `high` (MCP library match) / `low` (unpublished or mixed) — prefer `PASS_WITH_NOTES` over FAIL when confidence is low.
+
+### Tokens (AC-5)
+
+When variables/styles are available (`get_variable_defs`, style metadata): flag fills, strokes, spacing, or typography that use raw values instead of bound variables/styles.
+
+- Isolated unbound values → **WARN** (`PASS_WITH_NOTES`)
+- Wholesale token ignore on a library-attached file (systemic; treat as critical DS with AC-4) → **FAIL**
+
+### Quality (AC-6)
+
+Cover at minimum, each item PASS / WARN / FAIL eligible:
+
+- Layer/frame naming hygiene
+- Auto-layout vs absolute positioning for responsive regions
+- Text style usage
+- Component variant/property correctness
+- Detached or orphaned component instances
+
+Naming hygiene, minor detached instances, text-style drift → **WARN**. Detached **core** DS component that is a substitution → **FAIL** (same as AC-4 critical). Absolute layout on a region that is the only «responsive» evidence → WARN unless it also fails viewports.
+
+### Feature coverage (AC-7)
+
+Map **flows → screens/frames**, **actions → interactive elements**, and **states** (empty, loading, error, success, disabled/validation). List explicit **missing** items. Label scope **`inferred`** when only a URL is provided (no brief AC).
+
+- Missing **core** flow or primary action from brief AC (or labeled `inferred` primary flow from the URL) → **FAIL**
+- Missing empty/loading/error/success on a form/list called out in AC → **FAIL**
+- Missing secondary states (disabled/validation) not in AC → **WARN**
+
+### Viewports (AC-8)
+
+Verify **≥3 viewport representations** (small / medium / large) via dedicated frames, Figma viewport presets, or responsive component variants.
+
+- Fewer than 3 → **FAIL**
+- 3 exist but sizes ≠ stack example buckets → **WARN** only (no exact pixel enforcement in core)
+
