+### Conformance Tests
+
+The SDK is validated against the [MCP conformance test suite](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/conformance).
+Full details and instructions are in [`conformance-tests/VALIDATION_RESULTS.md`](conformance-tests/VALIDATION_RESULTS.md).
+
+**Latest results:**
+
+| Suite         | Result                                         |
+|---------------|------------------------------------------------|
+| Server        | ✅ 40/40 passed (100%)                          |
+| Client        | ⚠️ 3/4 scenarios, 9/10 checks passed      |
+| Auth (Spring) | ⚠️  12/14 scenarios fully passing (98.9% checks) |
