Garry Tan 520d102053 feat: gstack-gbrain-mcp-verify helper for remote MCP probe
Probes a remote gbrain MCP endpoint with bearer auth. POSTs initialize,
classifies failures into NETWORK / AUTH / MALFORMED with one-line
remediation hints, and runs a tools/list capability probe to detect
sources_add MCP support (forward-compat for when gbrain ships URL ingest).

Token consumed from GBRAIN_MCP_TOKEN env, never argv. Required to set
both 'application/json' AND 'text/event-stream' in Accept; that gotcha
costs 10 minutes of debugging when missed (regression-tested).

Live-verified against wintermute (gbrain v0.27.1).

# gstack-gbrain-mcp-verify — probe a remote gbrain MCP endpoint.
#
# Usage:
# GBRAIN_MCP_TOKEN=<bearer> gstack-gbrain-mcp-verify <url>
#
# Output (always valid JSON):
# {
# "status": "success" | "network" | "auth" | "malformed",
# "server_name": "gbrain" | null,
# "server_version": "0.26.8" | null,
# "error_class": "NETWORK" | "AUTH" | "MALFORMED" | null,
# "error_text": "<remediation hint + raw>" | null,
# "sources_add_url_supported": true | false,
# "raw_initialize_body": "<full body for debugging>" | null
# }
#
# Token is consumed from the GBRAIN_MCP_TOKEN env var, never argv. Prevents
# shell-history / `ps` exposure of the bearer.
#
# Three error classes:
# NETWORK — DNS / TCP / no HTTP response
# AUTH — 401, 403, or 500 with stale-token-shaped body
# MALFORMED — 2xx but missing serverInfo, OR `Not Acceptable` (the dual
# Accept-header gotcha)
#
# `sources_add_url_supported` probes capability via tools/list — true iff the
# remote exposes `mcp__gbrain__sources_add` (gbrain hasn't shipped this as
# of v0.26.x; field is forward-compatible).
#
# Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 on classified failure, 2 on usage error.
