With .env pointing at the real account, testing against the local instance
became dangerous: process env beats --env-file, so a local smoke run would
crawl fixtures straight into the live index, where a per-course refresh
carries them forward indefinitely. mcp-env.sh now pins its own database
(schulcloud_local) and mirror as well as the instance.
The override publishes the server on MCP_HOST_PORT and takes
CRAWL_INTERVAL_MS from .env, since what_changed can only report what
happened between crawls. The build context leaves out tmp/, which holds a
mirror of the account's files, and local-instance/.
probe checks live what the gap fixes established locally: the /api/v1 course
and user routes, classes, room allowedOperations as an object, and the
preview enums on a real file. A failure there means a feature degrades
rather than breaks.

`scripts/simulate-teacher.mjs` creates, edits and deletes what teachers
create — course, room, topic, task, board, columns, cards, rich text,
link, Etherpad pad, folder, files — so the MCP server can be exercised
against content the real account has never held. It is the only thing
here that writes to a Schulcloud and refuses any non-localhost address.
`scripts/mcp-env.sh` points the server and CLI at the instance.
Two gaps it exposed in the stack itself:
The files-storage AMQP consumer is a separate entrypoint, and we were
running only the HTTP one. Nothing was bound to the `files-storage`
exchange, so `TaskService.delete` — which awaits deleteFilesOfParent
over AMQP before touching the task — hung until the request timeout.
Deleting any task or topic answered 408 with the entity still there.
The demo data is dated 2017-2018 and the v3 endpoints filter on those
dates, so a student saw no tasks at all. seed.sh now brings courses and
homework into the present, which is the difference between a fixture
that exercises the student-facing surface and one that looks empty.
Teams turn out to be uncreatable through the API (the legacy service
registers no `create`, v3 has no route), and a new board is unpublished
and 403s for students, so the simulation adopts a seeded team and leaves
one board a draft on purpose.
