* chore: fix formatting
* chore: fix rustdoc redundant link warning
* refactor: validate_against_schema
* feat: enforce structured_content usage when output_schema is defined
This commit implements strict validation to ensure tools with output_schema
consistently use structured_content for both success and error responses.
Changes:
- Enhanced ToolRouter::call() validation to require structured_content when output_schema is present
- Added validation that tools with output_schema cannot use regular content field
- Added comprehensive tests covering the new strict validation behavior
- Created example demonstrating proper structured output usage
- Updated TODO.md to track validation improvements
This ensures consistent response format and better type safety for MCP clients.
* chore: remove TODO.md
* refactor: simplify output schema extraction logic in tool macro
- Extract complex nested logic into dedicated helper function
- Replace deeply nested if-else chains with functional approach
- Use early returns and ? operator for cleaner code flow
- Reduce 46 lines to 7 lines in main logic while improving readability
* chore: run cargo fmt
* fix: enforce structured_content usage when output_schema is defined
Structured content is returned as a JSON object in the structuredContent
field of a result.For backwards compatibility, a tool that returns
structured content SHOULD also return the serialized JSON in a
TextContent block.
https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/server/tools#structured-content
Tools may also provide an output schema for validation of structured
results. If an output schema is provided:
- Servers MUST provide structured results that conform to this schema.
- Clients SHOULD validate structured results against this schema.
https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/server/tools#output-schema
* chore: cargo fmt
- Fix ResourceContents enum to properly serialize with camelCase field names
- Add comprehensive tests to verify JSON serialization compliance
- Ensure all resource-related structs use mimeType as per MCP spec
- Add tests for RawResource, ResourceContents, RawImageContent, RawAudioContent
- Add test for prompt message image content serialization
- Update message schema files to reflect mimeType changes
- Fix import ordering to match project formatting standards
This change ensures the Rust SDK is fully compliant with the MCP specification
which requires mimeType (camelCase) for all resource content types.
* refactor: refactor tool macros and router implementation
- Updated the `#[tool(tool_box)]` macro to `#[tool_router]` across various modules for consistency.
- Enhanced the `Calculator`, `Counter`, and `GenericService` structs to utilize `ToolRouter` for handling tool calls.
- Introduced `Parameters` struct for better parameter handling in tool functions.
- Added new methods for listing tools and calling tools in server handlers.
- Improved test cases to reflect changes in tool routing and parameter handling.
- Updated documentation and examples to align with the new router structure.

* feat: allow failable service creation in streamable HTTP tower service
In our setup we need to lookup some info that may fail before we serve
the request.

1. provide context for notification
2. allow extract more info from tool call
3. inject http request part for streamable http server

1. allow user get extensions in tool call.
2. allow user serve sse service without initialization.
* fix: fix document test
* feat(client): cleanup of zombie processes in child process client
Using process wrap library, Process Group for Unix and Job Object for Windows
* fix: install extra dep based on feature, update examples take owned command
Install process-wrap if transport-child-process feature is enabled. Update examples to take ownership
of the command instead of mutable reference
* fix: update other examples, comments and readme to take ownership of command
Updated more examples, comments and readme to take command instead of mutable ref.
Also small fix in cargo toml of example to use local path.
* refactor: add configure command ext
Added configure command ext to tokio process command so that
you can use .configure() to use inline commands for mcp stdio client.
Added warning if start kill process fails
* refactor: a transport trait and streamable http client
* test: test with js streamable http server
* refactor: separate sse stream connection
* fix(test): streamable http client test with js
* fix(test): wait longer time for js server startup
* feat(model): add json schema generation support for all model types
This commit adds JSON Schema support for all model types by implementing
`schemars::JsonSchema` trait. The feature is gated behind the new
`schemars` feature flag. This enables automatic schema generation for
API documentation and validation purposes. Added tests to verify schema
generation for client and server JSON-RPC messages.
* fix(model): add manual json schema implementation for `NumberOrString`
This commit adds a manual implementation of `JsonSchema` trait for the
`NumberOrString` enum to properly represent its union type nature in
JSON Schema. The schema now correctly specifies that the type can be
either a number or a string using the `oneOf` validation keyword.
* fix(model): skip extensions field in json schema generation
The `Extensions` type was incorrectly included in JSON schema
generation, which could lead to confusing API documentation. This commit
adds `#[schemars(skip)]` attribute to all `extensions` fields in request
and notification structs, and removes the manual `JsonSchema`
implementation for the `Extensions` type since it's an internal
implementation detail that shouldn't be exposed in the schema.
* feat(transport): support streamable http server
* refactor(transport): add common module for shared transport utilities
* perf(tracing): add more log for streamable http session
* fix(test): fix port conflict in test with js
* fix(transport): fix id generating and session management
1. cancel when deleting
2. use `wrapping` and `saturating` correctly
* chore(naming): rename sse server to streamable http server
* fix(test): skip serialize tool's annotation if empty
1. skip serialize tool's annotation if empty
2. close js server and client when close
* fix(test): fix test with js, don't close too early
