+
+## GamePortal Protocol Implementation
+
+### capture_state() → GameState
+
+The harness implements the core observation primitive:
+
+```python
+state = await harness.capture_state()
+```
+
+**Returns:**
+```json
+{
+  "portal_id": "bannerlord",
+  "timestamp": "2026-03-31T12:00:00Z",
+  "session_id": "abc12345",
+  "visual": {
+    "screenshot_path": "/tmp/bannerlord_capture_1234567890.png",
+    "screen_size": [1920, 1080],
+    "mouse_position": [960, 540],
+    "window_found": true,
+    "window_title": "Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord"
+  },
+  "game_context": {
+    "app_id": 261550,
+    "playtime_hours": 142.5,
+    "achievements_unlocked": 23,
+    "achievements_total": 96,
+    "current_players_online": 8421,
+    "game_name": "Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord",
+    "is_running": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**MCP Tool Calls Used:**
+
+| Data Source | MCP Server | Tool Call |
+|-------------|------------|-----------|
+| Screenshot | `desktop-control` | `take_screenshot(path, window_title)` |
+| Screen size | `desktop-control` | `get_screen_size()` |
+| Mouse position | `desktop-control` | `get_mouse_position()` |
+| Player count | `steam-info` | `steam-current-players(261550)` |
+
+### execute_action(action) → ActionResult
+
+The harness implements the core action primitive:
+
+```python
+result = await harness.execute_action({
+    "type": "press_key",
+    "key": "i"
+})
+```
+
+**Supported Actions:**
+
+| Action Type | MCP Tool | Description |
+|-------------|----------|-------------|
+| `click` | `click(x, y)` | Left mouse click |
+| `right_click` | `right_click(x, y)` | Right mouse click |
+| `double_click` | `double_click(x, y)` | Double click |
+| `move_to` | `move_to(x, y)` | Move mouse cursor |
+| `drag_to` | `drag_to(x, y, duration)` | Drag mouse |
+| `press_key` | `press_key(key)` | Press single key |
+| `hotkey` | `hotkey(keys)` | Key combination (e.g., "ctrl s") |
+| `type_text` | `type_text(text)` | Type text string |
+| `scroll` | `scroll(amount)` | Mouse wheel scroll |
+
+**Bannerlord-Specific Shortcuts:**
+
+```python
+await harness.open_inventory()  # Press 'i'
+await harness.open_character()   # Press 'c'
+await harness.open_party()       # Press 'p'
+await harness.save_game()        # Ctrl+S
+await harness.load_game()        # Ctrl+L
+```
+
+---
+
+## ODA Loop Execution
+
+The Observe-Decide-Act loop is the core proof of the harness:
+
+```python
+async def run_observe_decide_act_loop(
+    decision_fn: Callable[[GameState], list[dict]],
+    max_iterations: int = 10,
+    iteration_delay: float = 2.0,
+):
+    """
+    1. OBSERVE: Capture game state (screenshot, stats)
+    2. DECIDE: Call decision_fn(state) to get actions
+    3. ACT: Execute each action
+    4. REPEAT
+    """
+```

+# MCP Servers for Bannerlord Harness
+
+This directory contains MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that provide tools for desktop control and Steam integration.
+
+## Overview
+
+MCP servers use stdio JSON-RPC for communication:
+- Read requests from stdin (line-delimited JSON)
+- Write responses to stdout (line-delimited JSON)
+- Each request has: `jsonrpc`, `id`, `method`, `params`
+- Each response has: `jsonrpc`, `id`, `result` or `error`
+
+## Servers
+
+### Desktop Control Server (`desktop_control_server.py`)
+
+Provides desktop automation capabilities using pyautogui.
+
+**Tools:**
+- `take_screenshot(path)` - Capture screen and save to path
+- `get_screen_size()` - Return screen dimensions
+- `get_mouse_position()` - Return current mouse coordinates
+- `pixel_color(x, y)` - Get RGB color at coordinate
+- `click(x, y)` - Left click at position
+- `right_click(x, y)` - Right click at position
+- `move_to(x, y)` - Move mouse to position
+- `drag_to(x, y, duration)` - Drag with duration
+- `type_text(text)` - Type string
+- `press_key(key)` - Press single key
+- `hotkey(keys)` - Press key combo (space-separated)
+- `scroll(amount)` - Scroll wheel
+- `get_os()` - Return OS info
+
+**Note:** In headless environments, pyautogui features requiring a display will return errors.
+
+### Steam Info Server (`steam_info_server.py`)
+
+Provides Steam Web API integration for game data.
+
+**Tools:**
+- `steam_recently_played(user_id, count)` - Recent games for user
+- `steam_player_achievements(user_id, app_id)` - Achievement data
+- `steam_user_stats(user_id, app_id)` - Game stats
+- `steam_current_players(app_id)` - Online count
+- `steam_news(app_id, count)` - Game news
+- `steam_app_details(app_id)` - App details
+
+**Configuration:**
+Set `STEAM_API_KEY` environment variable to use live Steam API. Without a key, the server runs in mock mode with sample data.
+
+## Configuration
+
+The `mcp_config.json` in the repository root configures the servers for MCP clients:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "desktop-control": {
+      "command": "python3",
+      "args": ["mcp_servers/desktop_control_server.py"]
+    },
+    "steam-info": {
+      "command": "python3",
+      "args": ["mcp_servers/steam_info_server.py"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+Run the test script to verify both servers:
+
+```bash
+python3 mcp_servers/test_servers.py
+```
+
+Or test manually:
+
+```bash
+# Test desktop control server
+echo '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{}}' | python3 mcp_servers/desktop_control_server.py
+
+# Test Steam info server  
+echo '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{}}' | python3 mcp_servers/steam_info_server.py
+```
+
+## Bannerlord Integration
+
+These servers can be used to:
+- Capture screenshots of the game
+- Read game UI elements via pixel color
+- Track Bannerlord playtime and achievements via Steam
+- Automate game interactions for testing
