project for the day

I would first consider whether a shut off valve is really needed, since it is so easy to turn off the water elsewhere.
As far as the leak, I would connect a hose extension and turn on the water while being able to look closely.
An inline shut off valve right at the toilet is very handy in the event of a not so uncommon flush valve that doesn't fully shut off. The supply line valve can be used to cycle the toilet water on and off as needed for flushing until a permanent repair can be made.
