This allows users to configure default capabilities, disable defaults, or suppress listChanged notifications by setting ListChanged: false. Key changes: - Add ServerOptions.Capabilities and ClientOptions.Capabilities fields. - Merge user-provided capabilities with dynamically-added ones (tools, prompts, resources, sampling, elicitation). - Check ListChanged before sending list-changed notifications. - Deprecate HasPrompts, HasResources, HasTools on ServerOptions. - Remove unreleased ElicitationModes field from ClientOptions. - Add clone methods to capability structs using shallowClone helper. - Add synctest-based tests for notification behavior (go1.25). - Add TestClientCapabilitiesOverWire and TestServerCapabilitiesOverWire - Document the new Capabilities API in docs/ Updates #706

# Rough edges: API decisions to reconsider for v2
|
|
|
|
This file collects a list of API oversights or rough edges that we've uncovered
|
|
post v1.0.0, along with their current workarounds. These issues can't be
|
|
addressed without breaking backward compatibility, but we'll revisit them for
|
|
v2.
|
|
|
|
- `EventStore.Open` is unnecessary. This was an artifact of an earlier version
|
|
of the SDK where event persistence and delivery were combined.
|
|
|
|
**Workaround**: `Open` may be implemented as a no-op.
|
|
|
|
- `Event` need not have been exported: it's an implementation detail of the SSE
|
|
and streamable transports. Also the 'Name' field is a misnomer: it should be
|
|
'event'.
|
|
|
|
- Enforcing valid tool names: with
|
|
[SEP-986](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol/issues/986)
|
|
landing after the SDK was at v1, we missed an opportunity to panic on invalid
|
|
tool names. Instead, we have to simply produce an error log. In v2, we should
|
|
panic.
|
|
|
|
- Inconsistent naming.
|
|
- `ResourceUpdatedNotificationsParams` should probably have just been
|
|
`ResourceUpdatedParams`, as we don't include the word 'notification' in
|
|
other notification param types.
|
|
- Similarly, `ProgressNotificationParams` should probably have been
|
|
`ProgressParams`.
|
|
|
|
- `AudioContent.MarshalJSON` should have had a pointer receiver, to be
|
|
consistent with other content types.
|
|
|
|
- `ClientCapabilities.Roots` should have been a distinguished struct pointer
|
|
([see #607](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/issues/607)).
|
|
|
|
**Workaround**: use `ClientCapabilities.RootsV2`, which aligns with the
|
|
semantics of other capability fields.
|
|
|
|
- Default capabilities should have been empty. Instead, servers default to
|
|
advertising `logging`, and clients default to advertising `roots` with
|
|
`listChanged: true`. This is confusing because a nil `Capabilities` field
|
|
does not mean "no capabilities".
|
|
|
|
**Workaround**: to advertise no capabilities, set
|
|
`ServerOptions.Capabilities` or `ClientOptions.Capabilities` to an empty
|
|
`&ServerCapabilities{}` or `&ClientCapabilities{}` respectively.
