-# Manual Testing Suite for Basic Memory
-
-This document outlines a comprehensive manual testing approach where an AI assistant (Claude) executes real-world usage scenarios using Basic Memory's MCP tools. The unique aspect: **Basic Memory tests itself** - all test observations and results are recorded as notes in a dedicated test project.
-
-## Philosophy
-
-- **Integration over Isolation**: Test the full MCP→API→DB→File stack
-- **Real Usage Patterns**: Creative exploration, not just checklist validation
-- **Self-Documenting**: Use Basic Memory to record all test observations
-- **Living Documentation**: Test results become part of the knowledge base
-
-## Setup Instructions
-
-### 1. Environment Preparation
-
-```bash
-# Ensure latest basic-memory is installed
-pip install --upgrade basic-memory
-
-# Verify MCP server is available
-basic-memory --version
-```
-
-### 2. MCP Integration Setup
-
-**Option A: Claude Desktop Integration**
-```json
-// Add to ~/.config/claude-desktop/claude_desktop_config.json
-// or 
-// .mcp.json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "basic-memory": {
-      "command": "uv",
-      "args": [
-        "--directory",
-        "/Users/phernandez/dev/basicmachines/basic-memory",
-        "run",
-        "src/basic_memory/cli/main.py",
-        "mcp"
-      ]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Option B: Claude Code MCP**
-```bash
-claude mcp add basic-memory basic-memory mcp
-```
-
-### 3. Test Project Creation
-
-During testing, create a dedicated test project:
-```
-- Project name: "basic-memory-testing"
-- Location: ~/basic-memory-testing
-- Purpose: Contains all test observations and results
-```
-
-## Testing Categories
-

-- [ ] Disk space constraints (if applicable)
-
-**Performance Testing:**
-- [ ] Large numbers of notes (100+)
-- [ ] Complex search queries
-- [ ] Deep relation chains (5+ levels)
-- [ ] Rapid successive operations
-
-### Phase 4: Real-World Workflow Scenarios
-
-**Objective**: Test realistic usage patterns that users might follow
-
-**Scenario 1: Meeting Notes Pipeline**
-1. Create meeting notes with action items
-2. Extract action items into separate notes
-3. Link to project planning documents
-4. Update progress over time using edit operations
-5. Archive completed items
-
-**Scenario 2: Research Knowledge Building**

-5. Reorganize as knowledge grows
-
-**Scenario 3: Multi-Project Workflow**
-1. Work project: Technical documentation
-2. Personal project: Recipe collection
-3. Learning project: Course notes
-4. Switch between projects during conversation
-5. Cross-reference related concepts
-
-**Scenario 4: Content Evolution**
-1. Start with basic notes
-2. Gradually enhance with relations
-3. Reorganize file structure

-- Does context preservation work as expected across tool calls?
-- Do memory:// URLs behave intuitively for knowledge navigation?
-- How well do tools work together in multi-step workflows?
-- Does the system gracefully handle edge cases and invalid inputs?
-
-### Documentation Alignment:
-- does tool output provide clear results and helpful information?
-- Do actual tool behaviors match their documented descriptions?
-- Are the examples in tool help accurate and useful?
-- Do real-world usage patterns align with documented workflows?
-
-### Mental Model Validation:
-- Does the system work the way users would naturally expect?
-- Are there surprising behaviors that break user assumptions?
-- Can users easily recover from mistakes or wrong turns?
-- Do the knowledge graph concepts (entities, relations, observations) feel natural?
-
-### Performance & Reliability:
