!!! warning "Why the pin"
Installers never select a pre-release unless you name one, so an unpinned `uv add "mcp[cli]"`
gives you the latest **v1.x** release, which these docs do not describe. Check the
[release history](https://pypi.org/project/mcp/#history) for the newest beta before you copy

the line above.
The same applies to one-off commands: `uv run --with "mcp==2.0.0b1" ...`, not `uv run --with mcp ...`.
The same applies to one-off commands: `uv run --with "mcp==2.0.0rc1" ...`, not `uv run --with mcp ...`.
If your *package* depends on `mcp`, add a `<2` upper bound (for example `mcp>=1.27,<2`) before
the stable v2 lands so the major version bump doesn't surprise you.
