FastMCP 4 beta 5 introduces client groups: coordinate several independent MCP server connections through one tool catalog, without a proxy in the middle.
🤝 **Client groups** — `ClientGroup` manages one client per server, each negotiating its own protocol era, with collision-checked `{server}_{tool}` namespacing, call routing, and per-tool provenance for adapters.
📏 **Consistent limits** — middleware response limits now align with declared output schemas.
