Support Standard Schema for tool and prompt schemas

Tool and prompt registration now accepts any schema library that implements the Standard Schema spec: Zod v4, Valibot, ArkType, and others. RegisteredTool.inputSchema, RegisteredTool.outputSchema, and RegisteredPrompt.argsSchema now use StandardSchemaWithJSON (requires both ~standard.validate and ~standard.jsonSchema) instead of the Zod-specific AnySchema type.

Zod v4 schemas continue to work unchanged — Zod v4 implements the required interfaces natively.

import { type } from 'arktype';

server.registerTool('greet', {
  inputSchema: type({ name: 'string' })
}, async ({ name }) => ({ content: [{ type: 'text', text: `Hello, ${name}!` }] }));

For raw JSON Schema (e.g. TypeBox output), use the new fromJsonSchema adapter:

import { fromJsonSchema, AjvJsonSchemaValidator } from '@modelcontextprotocol/core';

server.registerTool('greet', {
  inputSchema: fromJsonSchema({ type: 'object', properties: { name: { type: 'string' } } }, new AjvJsonSchemaValidator())
}, handler);

Breaking changes:

• experimental.tasks.getTaskResult() no longer accepts a resultSchema parameter. Returns GetTaskPayloadResult (a loose Result); cast to the expected type at the call site.
• Removed unused exports from @modelcontextprotocol/core: SchemaInput, schemaToJson, parseSchemaAsync, getSchemaShape, getSchemaDescription, isOptionalSchema, unwrapOptionalSchema. Use the new standardSchemaToJsonSchema and validateStandardSchema instead.
• completable() remains Zod-specific (it relies on Zod's .shape introspection).
