* [Client] Speak the 2026-07-28 lifecycle
On that revision the client opens with server/discover instead of
initialize, stamps each request's _meta with the protocol version, its own
capabilities and client info, and sends the standard Mcp-Method / Mcp-Name /
Mcp-Param-* headers an intermediary routes on. ToolCatalog is what knows,
from the tool list, which arguments a call has to mirror.
An input_required result is answered rather than surfaced: InputRequestResolver
asks the host's elicitation, sampling and roots handlers and retries the same
request carrying inputResponses and the requestState the server sent.
McpHeader holds the header names and the =?base64?…?= sentinel, so the two
sides no longer keep their own copies of the same rules.
* Fix CI baseline drift and address Copilot review findings
Drop stale expected-failure entries the new client fixture now passes.
Copilot review: fix McpHeader round-trip for a wrapper-shaped literal,
encode empty/numeric-keyed inputResponses as a JSON object, stop the
incident example repeating side effects on MRTR retry, and reset
ToolCatalog on reconnect instead of carrying the previous server's
verdicts.
* Skip DualEraExampleTestCase on PHP 8.1
PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS does not reliably fork multiple php -S
workers there (php/php-src#9400), reproducing the single-worker
deadlock the extra workers exist to avoid.
* [Client][Server] Add Roots support
Wire up the MCP "roots" capability on both sides:
Client (php-sdk as client):
- RootsCallbackInterface + ListRootsRequestHandler answer server roots/list
requests, mirroring the Sampling handler.
- Client::sendRootsListChanged() emits notifications/roots/list_changed.
Server (php-sdk as server):
- ClientGateway::listRoots() requests the client's roots, and
supportsRoots() reports whether the client advertised the capability,
normalizing the stored capabilities to an array so an empty
capabilities object (\stdClass) doesn't cause a TypeError.
- Add ListRootsResult::fromArray() (used by listRoots()).
- ListRootsRequestHandler forwards RootsException messages to the server
(new Mcp\Exception\RootsException), mirroring SamplingRequestHandler.
- Client::sendRootsListChanged() throws when the client did not advertise
the roots.listChanged capability.
Examples, docs and tests:
- examples/README/docs advertise
`new ClientCapabilities(roots: true, rootsListChanged: true)` before
sending notifications/roots/list_changed.
- CHANGELOG entry for Roots (unreleased 0.7.0 section at the time).
- Unit tests for capability serialization/round-trip, sendRootsListChanged
gating, and RootsException message forwarding.
phpunit, php-cs-fixer and phpstan green.
* [Client][Server] Address review: schema validation, changelog section, connection guard, working example
Responds to chr-hertel's review of the Roots support:
- ListRootsResult::fromArray() rejects non-array root elements instead of
accepting malformed entries silently.
- CHANGELOG entry moved to the next unreleased section as the release
train advanced past it (0.7.0 -> 0.8.0).
- Client::sendRootsListChanged() went straight to
Protocol::sendNotification(), which sends via
`$this->transport?->send()` -- on a client that is not connected the
notification was silently dropped. It now throws a ConnectionException
like sendRequest() does.
- The stdio example only advertised the roots capability, so the
roots/list handler never actually ran. The client-communication demo
server gets an `inspect_workspace_roots` tool that calls
ClientGateway::supportsRoots()/listRoots(); the example calls it, so
the server actually issues roots/list and the client answers it.
Dropped the try/catch wrapper from the example.
- ClientTest's connected-client mock now goes through setState() so
isConnected() reflects a real handshake instead of a stubbed flag.
phpunit, php-cs-fixer and phpstan green.
* feat(schema): add top-level title to Tool
Mirror PR #278's Prompt change for Tool:
- Add optional ?string $title to Mcp\Schema\Tool between $name
and $inputSchema. fromArray() now reads $data['title'];
jsonSerialize() emits 'title' right after 'name'. The
@phpstan-type ToolData gains title?: string.
- Add ?string $title to the #[McpTool] attribute between $name
and $description.
- Note ToolAnnotations::$title as deprecated-for-display in
favor of Tool::$title per MCP spec 2025-06-18 (PHPDoc only,
field retained for BC).
Phase 1 of plan 01--tool-title-spec-compliance. Later phases
update Discoverer, Builder::addTool(), ArrayLoader, and the
conformance fixture to match the new signature.
* feat(server): thread title through discovery
- Discoverer::processMethod() now propagates McpTool::$title
into every discovered Tool via named arguments.
- Builder::addTool() accepts ?string $title between $name and
$description. [BC Break] positional callers passing the old
$description as 3rd positional argument must switch to named
arguments, matching the precedent set for addPrompt() in
0.5.0.
- tests/Conformance/server.php migrated to named-argument form
for every addTool() call.
Phase 2 of plan 01--tool-title-spec-compliance.
* feat(loader): forward title in ArrayLoader
ArrayLoader now reads 'title' from each tool config entry and
passes it into the Tool constructor, completing the wiring
from Builder::addTool() through array-driven registration.
The $tools @param array-shape typedef gains title: ?string
between name and description.
Phase 3 of plan 01--tool-title-spec-compliance.
* test(schema): cover Tool.title end-to-end
- New tests/Unit/Schema/ToolTest.php: constructor round-trip,
jsonSerialize key-order when title set vs null, fromArray
tolerance.
- New tests/Unit/Capability/Discovery/DiscovererToolTitleTest
plus a TitleFixture class verifying McpTool(title: ...)
propagates through discovery into the registered Tool.
- New tests/Unit/Capability/Registry/Loader/ArrayLoader...
test verifying array-driven title propagation.
- Extend McpToolTest for title named-arg and default-null.
- Extend BuilderTest with addTool(title: 't') propagation.
- Update tests/Unit/.../RegistryTest, CallToolHandlerTest,
ListToolsHandlerTest and examples/.../server.php
new Tool(...) call sites to pass title (named args) so
they match the new constructor signature.
- CHANGELOG 0.6.0 section: feature bullet + [BC Break]
note for addTool() signature, mirroring 0.5.0 Prompt
entries.
- docs/server-builder.md: addTool() row and prose now
list title? between name and description.
Phase 4 of plan 01--tool-title-spec-compliance. All 730
phpunit tests pass; remaining phpstan warnings are
pre-existing and unrelated to Tool.title.
* refactor(schema): make Tool.title non-BC-breaking
Move `title` to the end of the Tool, Builder::addTool, and McpTool
attribute constructors with a default of null. This preserves
positional-argument compatibility and removes the need for
`title: null` boilerplate at call sites. JSON serialization order
(name, title, inputSchema, ...) is unchanged.
Also tighten the new tests: parameterize ToolTest with data
providers, fold the Discoverer title fixture into the existing
DiscoverableToolHandler, and drop the reflection-heavy Builder
test that overlapped with ArrayLoaderToolTitleTest.
* fix: move title after name
