## Motivation and Context
SEP-2322 (modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol#2322, merged for the 2026-07-28 MCP spec release)
replaces server-initiated JSON-RPC requests, which the stateless modern lifecycle (SEP-2575) forbids,
with multi round-trip results: a `tools/call`, `prompts/get`, or `resources/read` handler returns
`resultType: "input_required"` with `inputRequests` (server-assigned keys mapping to `elicitation/create`,
`sampling/createMessage`, or `roots/list` request shapes) and/or an opaque `requestState`,
and the client retries the ORIGINAL request with `inputResponses` under the same keys plus the echoed state.
The client-side recognition landed earlier (`MCP::ResultType`, `Client::InputRequiredError`);
this adds the server side, mirroring the Python SDK's low-level Server (python-sdk#2967/#2986)
and the TypeScript SDK's umbrella 2026-07-28 work.
- New `MCP::Server::InputRequiredResult` value object: construction validation
(at least one of the two fields, embedded methods restricted to the three shapes), `to_h` wire serialization,
and the capability mapping shared with the TypeScript SDK's `requiredClientCapabilitiesForInputRequest`
(url-mode elicitation requires `elicitation.url`, form otherwise; sampling with `tools`/`toolChoice` requires
`sampling.tools`; `roots/list` requires `roots`), including the 2025 back-compat rule that a bare `elicitation: {}`
declaration implies form support.
- Handlers return the object through the existing paths: both branches of `call_tool_with_args` and
`call_prompt_template_with_args` pass it through instead of calling `.to_h`, `call_tool` skips
output schema validation and the structured-content fallback for it (output schema validation would otherwise
run against a `nil` `structuredContent`), and the `resources/read` dispatch skips the `contents` wrapping and
SEP-2549 cache-hint stamping.
- One central hook in the dispatch lambda gates and serializes the result, after the cancellation check
so cancelled requests stay suppressed: a legacy request (no SEP-2575 envelope) gets an internal error,
because pre-2026 clients treat an unknown `resultType` as a final result; embedded requests exceeding
the request's declared client capabilities get `-32021` with the full merged `requiredCapabilities` set.
- `MCP::ServerContext` gains `input_responses`, `request_state`, and the key-tolerant `input_response(key)` reader.
The retry fields are params-top-level siblings of `name`/`arguments`/`uri` (not `_meta`),
so only handlers that opt in to `server_context:` can participate, matching the envelope readers' access model.
The server holds no memory between rounds: handlers re-run from the start on every retry
(deterministic replay, as in the Python SDK).
The 2026-07-28 conformance requirements score 14 `input-required-result-*` scenarios and the capability
checks of `server-stateless`, and each drives a diagnostic fixture tool the server under test must define.
The fixture defines the tools those scenarios call, mirroring the suite's TypeScript reference fixture
(`examples/servers/typescript/everything-server.ts`) in tool names and `inputRequests` keys:
- `test_input_required_result_elicitation` / `_sampling` / `_list_roots`: one embedded request each,
answered on the retry round (also exercised by the missing-response, result-type, ignore-extra-params,
and validate-input scenarios)
- `test_input_required_result_request_state`: stamps an opaque `requestState` and completes only after
it round-trips
- `test_input_required_result_multiple_inputs`: all three embeddable methods in one result
- `test_input_required_result_multi_round`: two elicitation rounds with per-round `requestState`
- `test_input_required_result_capabilities`: builds `inputRequests` from the declared client capabilities,
so a sampling-only client is never asked to elicit
- prompt `test_input_required_result_prompt`: the non-tool MRTR flow over `prompts/get`
- `test_missing_capability`: guards on `require_client_capability!(:sampling)`, giving
the `server-stateless` capability checks a target that answers -32021 with HTTP 400
`test_input_required_result_tampered_state` is deliberately absent: rejecting a tampered `requestState` needs
the sealing machinery of the request-state security change, and its fixture tool lands there.
Sealing of the echoed `requestState` (it arrives as client-controlled input) and the client-side auto-fulfillment loop
follow in the next changes.
Refs #382.
## How Has This Been Tested?
New `test/mcp/server/input_required_result_test.rb` covers construction validation, key normalization and freezing,
the wire shape of `to_h`, the full capability mapping, missing-capability subtraction with symbol/string declarations,
and the implied-form back-compat rule.
New tests in `test/mcp/server_test.rb` drive `Server#handle` with the modern envelope: issuance wire shape for all three methods,
the retry leg exposing `input_responses`/`request_state`/ `input_response(key)` to the handler, the legacy-request internal error,
`-32021` with the merged `requiredCapabilities` data, output-schema validation bypass under `validate_tool_call_results: true`,
and `resources/read` results staying unwrapped without `ttlMs`/`cacheScope` stamping even when the server configures cache hints.
Against the fixture server at `--spec-version 2026-07-28`, all SEP-2322 checks of the 13 covered scenarios pass,
and `server-stateless` reports `sep-2575-server-rejects-undeclared-capability` and
`sep-2575-missing-capability-http-400` as SUCCESS. The `wire-schema-valid` failures on rounds that reach
a complete result come from the missing `resultType` stamp, which is the separate stamping change's job.
The `--requirements 2025-11-25` server leg still passes 78/78, and `bundle exec rake` is green.
## Breaking Changes
None. The serialization seams only branch on a return type that previously could not occur, all new keyword arguments default to `nil`,
and requests that carry no `inputResponses`/`requestState` behave exactly as before.
