@ -1688,7 +1688,9 @@ Behavior changes:
- **`send_notification` no longer takes `related_request_id`, and `send_request` no longer accepts `ServerMessageMetadata`.** No client transport ever serialized these hints; progress and response correlation via `progressToken` and the request id is unaffected.
- **Client callbacks now receive `mcp.client.ClientRequestContext`** (its `request_id` is always populated); the `mcp.shared.context.RequestContext` generic is deleted. Annotations spelled `RequestContext[ClientSession, Any]` become `ClientRequestContext` (details in [`RequestContext` type parameters simplified](#requestcontext-type-parameters-simplified)).
`mcp.shared.session` is now a compatibility module: `ProgressFnT` is re-exported (its home is `mcp.shared.dispatcher`), and `RequestResponder` remains as a typing-only stub so `MessageHandlerFnT` annotations keep importing. `RequestResponder.respond()` no longer exists, and neither do the cancellation-tracking members (`cancel()`, the `cancelled` and `in_flight` properties, the `on_complete` constructor argument) or `BaseSession._in_flight`; inbound cancellation is handled by `JSONRPCDispatcher`.
- **`message_handler` no longer receives requests.** Server-initiated requests are answered by the typed callbacks (`sampling_callback`, `elicitation_callback`, `list_roots_callback`), so the handler's parameter is now `IncomingMessage = ServerNotification | Exception`, exported from `mcp.client`. Replace the hand-written v1 union `RequestResponder[ServerRequest, ClientResult] | ServerNotification | Exception` with `IncomingMessage`; `RequestResponder` is gone (below), so the old annotation no longer imports.
The `mcp.shared.session` module is gone. `RequestResponder` is removed — `respond()`, the cancellation-tracking members (`cancel()`, the `cancelled` and `in_flight` properties, the `on_complete` constructor argument) and `BaseSession._in_flight` have no replacement; inbound cancellation is handled by `JSONRPCDispatcher`. `ProgressFnT` now lives only in `mcp.shared.dispatcher`, and `RequestId` in `mcp_types`.
### Experimental Tasks support removed
