## Summary
Bumps the MCP C# SDK dependency from 1.1.0 to 2.1.0 across all 9
projects and aligns the implementation with the 2.x surface and the
2026-07-28 spec — not just a version bump.
### Compile fixes
- Removed the gateway's `Capabilities.Tasks = null` suppression and its
test: the experimental Tasks API was removed from SDK core in 2.0 (moved
to a separate, wire-incompatible `ModelContextProtocol.Extensions.Tasks`
package).
- Added `ResolveInputRequestsAsync` (new abstract MRTR member on
`McpClient`) overrides to the test doubles. MRTR forwarding is
deliberately out of scope for this PR; the gateway's server reports
`IsMrtrSupported == false`.
- Deleted all `MCPEXP001` pragmas — `ServerCapabilities.Extensions`
(which carries `io.modelcontextprotocol/interceptors`) is stable in 2.x.
`MCPEXP002` subclassing pragmas are kept.
### Spec deprecations (SEP-2577 / SEP-2575)
- The gateway intentionally keeps proxying `logging/setLevel` and
`resources/subscribe` for down-level clients/backends, with targeted
`MCP9005` suppressions.
- On negotiated `2026-07-28` connections the SDK rejects these methods
at the session layer (replaced by per-request `_meta` log levels and
`subscriptions/listen`), so the affected tests now pin `protocolVersion:
"2025-06-18"` through a new fixture parameter — making them genuine
down-level-compatibility tests.
### Defensive hardening
- `Tool.inputSchema` is required and validated on deserialization in
2.x. The gateway's `ListToolsHandler` now fetches the backend
`tools/list` result as raw JSON and runs
`GatewayProxyConfigurator.EnsureToolInputSchemas` before and after the
interceptor chain, coercing missing/invalid schemas to the spec-default
`{"type":"object"}` so down-level backends and schema-stripping
interceptors can't fail the request.
### Tests & docs
- New tests: end-to-end schema-stripping coercion,
`EnsureToolInputSchemas` unit cases, and `2026-07-28` protocol-version
negotiation through the gateway (implicitly exercising
`server/discover`).
- `CLAUDE.md` gains an "SDK 2.x / spec 2026-07-28 notes" section;
`ARCHITECTURE_PHASES.md` no longer lists `Tasks` as a mirrored
capability.
## Test plan
- [x] `dotnet build` — 0 errors, 0 warnings (library, tests, all 7
samples)
- [x] `dotnet test` — 105/105 passing (was 98: −1 removed Tasks test, +8
new)
