@ -6,16 +6,12 @@ The server is configured with an in-memory `IMcpTaskStore`, which is sufficient
`[McpServerTool]` method automatically run as a background task when the client opts into the
tasks extension on a per-request basis.
The client invokes the same `run-report` tool two ways:
1. **`CallToolAsync` (auto-poll)** — the SDK injects the opt-in marker into `_meta`, polls
`tasks/get` at the cadence the server suggests, dispatches any input requests through
registered handlers, and returns the final `CallToolResult` (or throws on a terminal
`Failed`/`Cancelled`).
2. **`CallToolRawAsync` (manual poll)** — the caller receives the raw
`ResultOrCreatedTask<CallToolResult>` and drives the lifecycle directly with
`GetTaskAsync`, `UpdateTaskAsync`, and `CancelTaskAsync`. Useful when you need to surface
progress to a UI or stream task status updates between polls.
The client invokes the `run-report` tool with **`CallToolAsTaskAsync` (manual poll)**. It
receives a `ResultOrCreatedTask<CallToolResult>` and, when the server runs the call as a
background task, drives the lifecycle directly with `GetTaskAsync` — polling at the server's
suggested cadence until the task reaches a terminal state (`Completed`, `Failed`, or
`Cancelled`). If the server returns an inline result instead of creating a task, the sample
surfaces that result and stops.
Both ends of the conversation are connected in-process over an in-memory `Pipe`, so no separate
server process or HTTP transport is required.

## Notes
- The `MCPEXP001` warning is suppressed because the tasks extension is still experimental. The
project's `<NoWarn>` already includes it; if you copy this pattern into your own project,
either suppress the diagnostic or wrap the experimental APIs in
`#pragma warning disable MCPEXP001`.
- For production deployments — especially stateless HTTP servers — implement
`IMcpTaskStore` against durable storage and register it as a singleton (see
[docs/concepts/tasks/tasks.md](../../docs/concepts/tasks/tasks.md) for the contract).
