RIVA mentors you through every lesson, lab and assessment in this academy — and knows where you got stuck last time.
What you’ll be able to do
Written as capabilities, not topics. If you can’t do these at the end, the academy didn’t work.
- Ship an MCP server exposing tools, resources and prompts
- Scope permissions so a tool can't reach past its remit
- Handle transport, auth and lifecycle correctly
- Test a server against more than one MCP client
