 Streamable HTTP is a modern, efficient transport for exposing your MCP server via HTTP. It is generally recommended over SSE for new web-based deployments.
 
-To run a server using Streamable HTTP, you can use the `run()` method with the `transport` argument set to `"streamable-http"`. This will start a Uvicorn server on the default host (`127.0.0.1`), port (`8000`), and path (`/mcp/`).

 Server-Sent Events (SSE) is an HTTP-based protocol for server-to-client streaming. While FastMCP supports SSE, Streamable HTTP is preferred for new projects.
