* feat: allow lowlevel servers to return a list of resources
The resource/read message in MCP allows of multiple resources
to be returned. However, in the SDK we do not allow this. This
change is such that we allow returning multiple resource in
the lowlevel API if needed. However in FastMCP we stick to
one, since a FastMCP resource defines the mime_type in the decorator
and hence a resource cannot dynamically return different mime_typed resources.
It also is just the better default to only return one resource.
However in the lowlevel API we will allow this.
Strictly speaking this is not a BC break since the new return value
is additive, but if people subclassed server, it will break them.
* feat: lower the type requriements for call_tool to Iterable
The character encoding of the stdin/stdout streams in Python is platform-
dependent. On Windows it will be something weird, like CP437 or CP1252,
depending on the locale. This change ensures that no matter the platform,
UTF-8 is used.
- Add proper generic parameter for lifespan context type
- Update README with TypedDict example for strong typing
- Fix context variable initialization in server
- Improve property return type safety
- Remove redundant documentation
- Ensure compatibility with existing tests
This test ensures that the server properly preserves and returns the same request ID in responses,
which is a fundamental part of the JSON-RPC protocol. The test initializes the server, sends
requests with custom IDs, and verifies that these IDs are correctly returned.

Add comprehensive documentation for lifespan support:
- Add usage examples for both Server and FastMPC classes
- Document startup/shutdown patterns
- Show context access in tools and handlers
- Clean up spacing in test files
Adds comprehensive tests for lifespan functionality:
- Tests for both low-level Server and FastMCP classes
- Coverage for startup, shutdown, and context access
- Verifies context passing to request handlers
Adds support for the lifespan API to FastMCP server, enabling:
- Simple setup with FastMCP constructor
- Type-safe context passing to tools and handlers
- Configuration via Settings class
Adds a context manager based lifespan API in mcp.server.lowlevel.server to manage server lifecycles in a
type-safe way. This enables servers to:
- Initialize resources on startup and clean them up on shutdown
- Pass context data from startup to request handlers
- Support async startup/shutdown operations
This commit adds support for request cancellation and tracking of
in-flight requests in the MCP protocol implementation. The key
architectural changes are:
1. Request Lifecycle Management:
- Added _in_flight dictionary to BaseSession to track active requests
- Requests are tracked from receipt until completion/cancellation
- Added proper cleanup via on_complete callback
2. Cancellation Support:
- Added CancelledNotification handling in _receive_loop
- Implemented cancel() method in RequestResponder
- Uses anyio.CancelScope for robust cancellation
- Sends error response on cancellation
3. Request Context:
- Added request_ctx ContextVar for request context
- Ensures proper cleanup after request handling
- Maintains request state throughout lifecycle
4. Error Handling:
- Improved error propagation for cancelled requests
- Added proper cleanup of cancelled requests
- Maintains consistency of in-flight tracking
This change enables clients to cancel long-running requests and
servers to properly clean up resources when requests are cancelled.
