The rules differ depending on whether the field you are adding (or maintaining) is *optional* — Java code may legitimately leave it `null` and the wire may omit it — or *spec-required* by MCP. Follow **Case A** for optional fields and **Case B** for spec-required fields. + +### Case A — Optional fields + +1. **Add new components only at the end** of the record's component list. Never reorder or rename existing components. +2. **Annotate every component** with `@JsonProperty("fieldName")` even when the Java name already matches. This survives local renames via refactoring tools. +3. **Use boxed types** (`Boolean`, `Integer`, `Long`, `Double`) so the field can be absent on the wire without a special sentinel. +4. **Default to `null`**, not an empty collection or neutral value, so the `@JsonInclude(NON_ABSENT)` rule omits the field for clients that don't know about it yet. +5. **Keep existing constructors as source-compatible overloads** that delegate to the new canonical constructor and pass `null` for the new component. Do not remove them in the same release that adds the field. +6. **Do not put `@JsonCreator` on the canonical constructor** unless strictly necessary. Jackson auto-detects record canonical constructors; adding `@JsonCreator` pins deserialization to that exact parameter order forever. *(For records that also have spec-required fields, the `@JsonCreator` belongs on a separate static `fromJson` factory — see Case B, Rule 2.)* +7. **Do not convert `null` to a default value in the canonical constructor.** Null carries "absent" semantics and must be preserved through the serialization round-trip. *(Spec-required fields are the exception — see Case B, Rule 1.)* +8. **Add three tests per new field** (put them in the relevant test class in `mcp-test`): + - Deserialize JSON *without* the field → succeeds, field is `null`. + - Serialize an instance with the field unset (`null`) → the key is absent from output. + - Deserialize JSON with an extra *unknown* field → succeeds. +9. **An inner `Builder` subclass can be used.** This improves the developer experience since frequently not all fields are required. + +### Case B — Spec-required fields + +When the MCP specification marks a field as required, callers must not be able to construct a structurally invalid record, but the wire parser must still tolerate peers that fail to send it. Follow these rules in addition to the relevant Case A rules (annotation, naming, append-only). + +1. **Reject `null` in the compact constructor.** Use `Assert.notNull` for required objects or `Assert.hasText` for required `String` identifiers (`name`, `uri`, `uriTemplate`, `version`). This throws `IllegalArgumentException` at construction time instead of producing a record that fails later in serialization or protocol handling. Overrides Case A Rule 7 for this field. +2. **Add a `@JsonCreator` static `fromJson` factory** alongside the canonical constructor. When a required field is absent from the wire, substitute a documented safe default (`""` for strings, `[]` for collections, `{}` for maps, `0` / `0.0` for numerics, `INFO` for `LoggingLevel`, etc.) and log at `WARN` naming the field and the value used. The SDK must not halt the conversation because of a missing field. Place `@JsonCreator` on this `fromJson` factory, never on the canonical constructor (Case A Rule 6 still applies to the canonical constructor itself). + - Exception: `JSONRPCResponse.JSONRPCError` fails fast on missing `code` / `message` because a malformed JSON-RPC error envelope is unrecoverable. +3. **Provide a required-first builder factory** `builder(req1, req2, …)` and remove the corresponding setters from the `Builder`. A no-arg `builder()` factory must not exist on a record that has required fields. If one already exists for source compatibility, mark it `@Deprecated`. +4. **Add tests per required field**: + - Constructing the record with `null` for the field throws `IllegalArgumentException`. + - Deserializing JSON *without* the field succeeds and yields the documented default. + - Deserializing JSON with an extra *unknown* field still succeeds (Case A Rule 8 also applies). + +### Example + +Suppose `ToolAnnotations` gains an optional `audience` field: + +```java +// Before +@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL) +@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true) +public record ToolAnnotations( + @JsonProperty("title") String title, + @JsonProperty("readOnlyHint") Boolean readOnlyHint, + @JsonProperty("destructiveHint") Boolean destructiveHint, + @JsonProperty("idempotentHint") Boolean idempotentHint, + @JsonProperty("openWorldHint") Boolean openWorldHint) { ... } + +// After — new component appended at the end +@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL) +@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true) +public record ToolAnnotations( + @JsonProperty("title") String title, + @JsonProperty("readOnlyHint") Boolean readOnlyHint, + @JsonProperty("destructiveHint") Boolean destructiveHint, + @JsonProperty("idempotentHint") Boolean idempotentHint, + @JsonProperty("openWorldHint") Boolean openWorldHint, + @JsonProperty("audience") List audience) { // new — added at end + + // Keep the old constructor so existing callers still compile + public ToolAnnotations(String title, Boolean readOnlyHint, + Boolean destructiveHint, Boolean idempotentHint, Boolean openWorldHint) { + this(title, readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint, null); + } +} +``` + +Tests to add: + +```java +@Test +void toolAnnotationsDeserializesWithoutAudience() throws IOException { + ToolAnnotations a = mapper.readValue(""" + {"title":"My tool","readOnlyHint":true}""", ToolAnnotations.class); + assertThat(a.audience()).isNull(); +} + +@Test +void toolAnnotationsOmitsNullAudience() throws IOException { + String json = mapper.writeValueAsString(new ToolAnnotations("t", null, null, null, null)); + assertThat(json).doesNotContain("audience"); +} + +@Test +void toolAnnotationsToleratesUnknownFields() throws IOException { + ToolAnnotations a = mapper.readValue(""" + {"title":"t","futureField":42}""", ToolAnnotations.class); + assertThat(a.title()).isEqualTo("t"); +} +``` + ## Code of Conduct This project follows a Code of Conduct.

The compiler will no longer reject switches that omit one of the known subtypes. + +### `CompleteReference` polymorphic deserialization + +`CompleteReference` (and its implementations `PromptReference` and `ResourceReference`) is now annotated with `@JsonTypeInfo(use = NAME, include = EXISTING_PROPERTY, property = "type", visible = true)`. Jackson dispatches to the correct subtype based on the `"type"` field automatically. + +**Action:** Remove any custom code that manually inspected the `"type"` field of a completion reference map and instantiated `PromptReference` / `ResourceReference` by hand. A plain `mapper.readValue(json, CompleteRequest.class)` or `mapper.convertValue(paramsMap, CompleteRequest.class)` is sufficient. + +`CompleteReference.identifier()` is `@Deprecated` and now returns `null` via a default method on the interface. + +### `PromptReference` discriminator pinning and equality + +`PromptReference` keeps its `(type, name, title)` record components, so positional construction from 1.x still compiles, with two behavioural changes: + +- The compact constructor pins `type` to `ref/prompt`. Any non-null value other than `ref/prompt` is replaced and a `WARN` is logged. The legacy two-arg `PromptReference(String type, String name)` constructor remains `@Deprecated` and routes through the canonical constructor, so it triggers the same WARN. +- `equals`/`hashCode` now consider `name` only (title and type are ignored). Two refs with the same name but different titles compare equal. + +**Action:** Audit any code that used `PromptReference` as a map key or in a `Set` — equality semantics changed. If you constructed instances with a custom `type` string, switch to `PromptReference.builder(name)` (or `new PromptReference(name)`); the WARN identifies the call sites still passing a discriminator. + +### `ResourceReference` record component reduced + +Components changed from `(type, uri)` to `(uri)`. Positional construction with two arguments breaks. The legacy `ResourceReference(String type, String uri)` constructor stays `@Deprecated`; it ignores `type` and logs a `WARN`. Use `new ResourceReference(uri)` or `ResourceReference.builder(uri)`. The `type()` accessor still returns `ref/resource` and Jackson serializes it via `@JsonProperty("type")` on the accessor. + +### `ElicitRequest` is now an interface + +To support URL-mode elicitation (see [New features](#new-features)), the elicitation request type was split: + +- `ElicitRequest` changed from a `record` to an `interface`. +- The original form-based request record is now `ElicitFormRequest`. +- The `McpClient` builder `elicitation(...)` methods now accept a handler over `ElicitFormRequest` instead of `ElicitRequest`. + +**Action:** Replace references to the old `ElicitRequest` record (construction, `instanceof`, handler signatures) with `ElicitFormRequest`. Code that only referred to `ElicitRequest` as a type continues to compile against the new interface. + +### `ServerParameters` no longer carries Jackson annotations + +`ServerParameters` (in `client/transport`) has had its `@JsonProperty` and `@JsonInclude` annotations removed. It was never a wire type and is not serialized to JSON in normal SDK usage. If your code serialized or deserialized `ServerParameters` using Jackson, switch to a plain map or a dedicated DTO. + +--- + +## JSON serialization behaviour + +### Unknown JSON fields are ignored + +Wire-oriented `public record` types in `McpSchema` consistently use `@JsonInclude(JsonInclude.Include.NON_ABSENT)` and `@JsonIgnoreProperties(ignoreUnknown = true)`. Nested capability objects under `ClientCapabilities` / `ServerCapabilities` (for example `Sampling`, `Elicitation`, `CompletionCapabilities`, `LoggingCapabilities`, and the prompt/resource/tool capability records) also ignore unknown JSON properties. As a result: + +- **Unknown fields** in incoming JSON are silently ignored, improving forward compatibility with newer server or client versions. +- **Absent optional properties** are omitted from outgoing JSON where `NON_ABSENT` applies, and optional Java components deserialize as `null` when missing on the wire. + +### `CompleteCompletion` field handling + +- `CompleteResult.CompleteCompletion.total` and `CompleteCompletion.hasMore` are now omitted from serialized JSON when `null` (previously they were always emitted). Deserializers that required these fields to be present must treat their absence as `null`. +- The compact constructor asserts that `values` is not `null`. **Action:** always pass a non-null list (for example `List.of()` when there are no suggestions). + +### `LoggingLevel` deserialization is lenient + +`LoggingLevel` now uses a `@JsonCreator` factory (`fromValue`) so JSON string values deserialize case-insensitively. **Unrecognized level strings deserialize to `null`** instead of failing. + +**Impact:** `SetLevelRequest`, `LoggingMessageNotification`, and any other type embedding `LoggingLevel` can observe a `null` level when the wire value is unknown or misspelled. Downstream code must null-check or validate before use. + +### `Content.type()` is ignored for Jackson serialization + +The `Content` interface still exposes `type()` as a convenience for Java callers, but the method is annotated with `@JsonIgnore` so Jackson does not treat it as a duplicate `"type"` property alongside `@JsonTypeInfo` on the interface. + +**Impact:** Custom serializers or `ObjectMapper` configuration that relied on serializing `Content` through the `type()` accessor alone should use the concrete content records (each of which carries a real `"type"` property) or the polymorphic setup on `Content`. + +### JSON-RPC envelope ergonomics + +In 1.x, every envelope was constructed via the canonical record constructor and the literal `"2.0"` `jsonrpc` string had to be threaded through every call site: + +```java +new JSONRPCRequest("2.0", "tools/call", id, params); +new JSONRPCNotification("2.0", "notifications/initialized", null); +new JSONRPCResponse("2.0", id, result, null); +new JSONRPCResponse("2.0", id, null, new JSONRPCError(code, message, null)); +``` + +2.0 adds defaulting constructors and static factories so the `"2.0"` constant and the unused `result`/`error` slot disappear from caller code: + +```java +new JSONRPCRequest("tools/call", id); // params optional +new JSONRPCRequest("tools/call", id, params); +new JSONRPCNotification("notifications/initialized"); // params optional +new JSONRPCNotification("notifications/initialized", params); +JSONRPCResponse.result(id, result); +JSONRPCResponse.error(id, new JSONRPCError(code, message)); // 2-arg error +``` + +`JSONRPCResponse`'s compact constructor additionally enforces the JSON-RPC invariant that exactly one of `result` / `error` is set — previously the SDK could build envelopes that violated the protocol. The 1.x canonical 4-arg constructors continue to compile. + +--- + +## Server-side validation + +### Optional JSON Schema validation on `tools/call` + +When a `JsonSchemaValidator` is available (including the default from `McpJsonDefaults.getSchemaValidator()` when you do not configure one explicitly) and `validateToolInputs` is left at its default of `true`, the server validates incoming tool arguments against `tool.inputSchema()` before invoking the tool. Failed validation produces a `CallToolResult` with `isError` set and a textual error in the content. + +**Action:** Ensure `inputSchema` maps are valid for your validator, tighten client arguments, or disable validation with `validateToolInputs(false)` on the server builder if you must preserve pre-2.0 behaviour. + +### Embedded JSON Schemas are validated against 2020-12 (SEP-1613) + +The JSON Schema documents that MCP embeds — `Tool.inputSchema`, `Tool.outputSchema`, and `ElicitRequest.requestedSchema` — are now validated against the JSON Schema 2020-12 meta-schema by default. Servers reject malformed schemas at **build time** (`McpServer.build()`) and at **runtime** (`addTool()`) with an `IllegalArgumentException` that names the offending field and references SEP-1613. Elicitation requests whose `requestedSchema` violates the meta-schema are rejected before being sent to the client. + +Schemas that explicitly declare a different dialect via `$schema` are accepted without meta-schema validation — 2020-12 is the default, not the only permitted dialect. + +**Action:** Make embedded schemas valid 2020-12 documents, or set an explicit `$schema` to opt into a different dialect. + +--- + +## Transport changes + +### `customizeRequest()` removed from the HttpClient transport builders + +The deprecated `Builder.customizeRequest(Consumer)` method on `HttpClientSseClientTransport` and `HttpClientStreamableHttpTransport` has been removed. + +**Action:** Use `requestBuilder(HttpRequest.Builder)` for static request setup, or `httpRequestCustomizer(McpSyncHttpClientRequestCustomizer)` for per-request customization. + +### `protocolVersions()` default now advertises all known versions + +The default implementation of `protocolVersions()` on `McpTransport` and `McpServerTransportProviderBase` previously returned only `["2024-11-05"]`. It now returns all four versions the SDK understands: + +``` +["2024-11-05", "2025-03-26", "2025-06-18", "2025-11-25"] +``` + +**Impact for transport implementors:** If your custom `McpClientTransport` or `McpServerTransportProvider` did not override `protocolVersions()`, it will now advertise all four versions during protocol negotiation instead of just `2024-11-05`. This is the intended upgrade path for most transports, but if you need to restrict your transport to a specific set of versions, override `protocolVersions()` explicitly and return the desired list. + +**Impact for users of built-in transports:** No action is required. `StdioClientTransport`, `StdioServerTransportProvider`, and `HttpServletStreamableServerTransportProvider` all advertise the full version list. + +### SSE transports are deprecated + +The HTTP+SSE client and server transports (and their supporting validator/exception types) are deprecated in favour of Streamable HTTP — `HttpClientStreamableHttpTransport` on the client, and `HttpServletStreamableServerTransportProvider` on the server. They still work; plan a move to Streamable HTTP. + +--- + +## Server API changes + +### `McpStatelessSyncServer#closeGracefully` returns `void` + +In 1.x, `McpStatelessSyncServer.closeGracefully()` accidentally leaked the reactive signature from the underlying async server and returned `Mono`. The sync API is intentionally blocking, so returning a `Mono` was an oversight — callers had to call `.block()` themselves to get any actual shutdown behaviour. + +In 2.0 the return type is corrected to `void`; the blocking call is performed internally. + +**Action:** Remove any `.block()` (or `.subscribe()`) call you had appended to `closeGracefully()`. The method now blocks until the server has shut down and returns normally. + +--- + +## New features + +These are additive and backward-compatible. + +### URL elicitation (SEP-1036) + +Servers can request out-of-band URL input from users (for example payment or API-key flows) during tool execution. Adds `ElicitUrlRequest`, `urlElicitation()` / `elicitationCompleteConsumer(s)()` builder methods on `McpClient`, `sendElicitationComplete()` on `McpAsyncServer`/`McpSyncServer`, the `ElicitationCompleteNotification` record, and the `URL_ELICITATION_REQUIRED` error code. See the [`ElicitRequest` interface change](#elicitrequest-is-now-an-interface) for the related breaking change. + +### Client-side elicitation defaults (SEP-1034) + +A new opt-in `McpClient` builder option `applyElicitationDefaults(boolean)` fills missing keys of an accepted `ElicitResult.content` with the `default` values declared in the request's `requestedSchema` before returning the result to the server. It is a local client config, not a wire capability. + +### Icons and metadata (SEP-973) + +A new `Icon` record and an optional `icons` field were added to `Implementation`, `Resource`, `ResourceTemplate`, `Prompt`, and `Tool`. `Implementation` also gains optional `description` and `websiteUrl` fields. All fields are optional; existing constructors and builders are unchanged. + +### `_meta` on paginated list queries + +The client list operations accept an optional `_meta` map alongside the pagination cursor: `listResources(String cursor, Map meta)`, `listResourceTemplates(...)`, `listPrompts(...)`, and `listTools(...)`. diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 34133a7..5e381f4 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -15,9 +15,9 @@ For comprehensive guides and SDK API documentation - [Features](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/java-sdk/#features) - Overview the features provided by the Java MCP SDK - [Architecture](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/java-sdk/#architecture) - Java MCP SDK architecture overview. -- [Java Dependencies / BOM](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/java-sdk/quickstart/#dependencies) - Java dependencies and BOM. -- [Java MCP Client](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/java-sdk/client/) - Learn how to use the MCP client to interact with MCP servers. -- [Java MCP Server](https://modelcontextprotocol.github.io/java-sdk/server/) - Learn how to implement and configure a MCP servers. +- [Java Dependencies / BOM](https://java.sdk.modelcontextprotocol.io/latest/quickstart/#dependencies) - Java dependencies and BOM. +- [Java MCP Client](https://java.sdk.modelcontextprotocol.io/latest/client/) - Learn how to use the MCP client to interact with MCP servers. +- [Java MCP Server](https://java.sdk.modelcontextprotocol.io/latest/server/) - Learn how to implement and configure a MCP servers. #### Spring AI MCP documentation [Spring AI MCP](https://docs.spring.io/spring-ai/reference/2.0-SNAPSHOT/api/mcp/mcp-overview.html) extends the MCP Java SDK with Spring Boot integration, providing both [client](https://docs.spring.io/spring-ai/reference/2.0-SNAPSHOT/api/mcp/mcp-client-boot-starter-docs.html) and [server](https://docs.spring.io/spring-ai/reference/2.0-SNAPSHOT/api/mcp/mcp-server-boot-starter-docs.html) starters. @@ -40,6 +40,41 @@ To run the tests you have to pre-install `Docker` and `npx`. ```bash ./mvnw test ``` +### Conformance Tests + +The SDK is validated against the [MCP conformance test suite](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/conformance) at 0.1.15 version. +Full details and instructions are in [`conformance-tests/VALIDATION_RESULTS.md`](conformance-tests/VALIDATION_RESULTS.md). + +**Latest results:** + +| Suite | Result | +|---------------|-----------------------------------------------------| +| Server | ✅ 40/40 passed (100%) | +| Client | 🟡 3/4 scenarios, 9/10 checks passed | +| Auth (Spring) | 🟡 12/14 scenarios fully passing (98.9% checks) | + +To run the conformance tests locally you need `npx` installed. + +```bash +# Server conformance +./mvnw compile -pl conformance-tests/server-servlet -am exec:java +npx @modelcontextprotocol/conformance server --url http://localhost:8080/mcp --suite active + +# Client conformance +./mvnw clean package -DskipTests -pl conformance-tests/client-jdk-http-client -am +for scenario in initialize tools_call elicitation-sep1034-client-defaults sse-retry;
