* Add AnthropicSamplingHandler
Adds a sampling handler for the Anthropic API at
fastmcp.client.sampling.handlers.anthropic, alongside the existing
OpenAI handler. Includes full support for tool calling.
Install with: pip install fastmcp[anthropic]
* Update default model
* Update sampling docs to cover both OpenAI and Anthropic handlers
* Use AsyncAnthropic, fix falsy value handling, handle tool_choice none
* Propagate isError to Anthropic, join multiple text blocks, fix docs
* Unify SamplingHandler and promote OpenAI handler
Consolidates ServerSamplingHandler and ClientSamplingHandler into a single
SamplingHandler type alias. Moves OpenAISamplingHandler from experimental
to fastmcp.client.sampling.handlers.openai as the canonical location.
Backwards compatibility maintained for imports from experimental.
* Remove unreachable code paths in OpenAI handler
* Fix docstring and use elif for mutually exclusive branches
* MCP → SDK (vocab change only)
* WIP: Sampling API with SamplingResult[T] and result_type
* SEP-1577: Sampling with tools
- Add tools and result_type parameters to ctx.sample()
- Update OpenAI handler for tool content types
- Client advertises sampling.tools capability by default
- Collect tool results into single message with list content
* Fix tool result content handling in OpenAI handler
* Remove @sampling_tool decorator - pass functions directly to sample()
Functions passed to ctx.sample(tools=[...]) are now auto-converted
via SamplingTool.from_function(). Users can still use that method
directly for custom name/description overrides.
* Remove auto-conversion of MCP tools to sampling tools
Users want MCP tools passed to ctx.sample() to go through the full MCP
machinery (middleware, native responses) rather than being auto-converted
to direct function calls. Now only SamplingTool and plain callables are
accepted - passing a FastMCP Tool raises a clear TypeError.
Also bumps mcp dependency to >=1.24.0 for required sampling features.
* Refactor sampling API: replace sample_iter() with sample_step()
Replace the mutable SampleRun/sample_iter() pattern with a simpler stateless
sample_step() function. sample_step() makes a single LLM call and returns a
SampleStep with the response and history. sample() now loops sample_step()
internally.
Key changes:
- Add sample_step() for fine-grained control over the sampling loop
- Remove SampleRun class and sample_iter() method
- Structured output uses tool description only (no prompt modification)
- execute_tools parameter controls automatic vs manual tool execution
* Address CodeRabbit nitpicks
* Address CodeRabbit review feedback for sampling tools
- Fix temperature=0.0 being dropped due to falsy evaluation
- Add ToolChoice.name support for forcing specific tools
- Replace assert statements with explicit RuntimeError checks
- Add mask_error_details parameter to sample()/sample_step() with ToolError escape hatch
- Fix hasattr patterns with proper isinstance checks
- Document mask_error_details and add OpenAI prerequisites to docs
* Address additional CodeRabbit review feedback
- Catch ValidationError specifically instead of bare Exception
- Update result_type docs to mention dataclasses and basic types
- Raise ValueError for unknown tool_choice modes
- Validate sampling_handler_behavior to catch typos
- Remove ToolChoice.name handling (not part of MCP spec)
- Validate tool_choice string in sample_step()
* Review fixes for sampling tools PR
- Remove internal functions from sampling __init__.py exports
- Remove fragile is_text property, use not is_tool_use instead
- Inline call_client into context.py, remove from run.py
- Fix SamplingMessage docs to use TextContent
- Handle result.text being None in doc examples
- Simplify client sampling docs to recommend OpenAISamplingHandler
- Add sampling_capabilities override documentation
- Raise iteration limit from 50 to 100
- Remove _parse_model_preferences duplication
- Use AsyncOpenAI in OpenAISamplingHandler
- Fix tool_choice docstring
* Fix OpenAI handler tests to use AsyncOpenAI
* Address remaining CodeRabbit review comments
- Fix message ordering in OpenAI handler: tool results now correctly
follow assistant message with tool_calls
- sample_step() now always includes assistant message in history
- Raise ValueError on JSON parse errors instead of silent {}
- Add has_sampling capability check when behavior is None
- Raise RuntimeError when structured output receives text response
- Wrap primitive result_type schemas in object wrapper
- Fix docs example using invalid SamplingMessage construction
- Add comprehensive client_sampling_test.py example
* Add return type annotation to OpenAISamplingHandler.__init__
* Use explicit 'is not None' check for sampling_capabilities defaulting

- Lead with concepts instead of code
- Explain MCP background tasks vs general Python concurrency
- Document Docket's Prefect origins and battle-tested infrastructure
- Add sections on graceful degradation and embedded workers
- Fix version badge to 2.14.0
- Link to SEP-1686 spec
* Implement MCP background tasks (SEP-1686) using Docket
Adds support for background task execution via the MCP task protocol,
powered by Docket for task queue management.
- Tools, resources, and prompts can be marked with `task=True` to run async
- Progress dependency for tracking task progress
- CurrentDocket and CurrentWorker dependencies for advanced use cases
- Client API with `.call_tool(..., task=True)` returns task handles
- Task status notifications via subscriptions
- CLI worker command for distributed task processing
Configuration via environment:
- FASTMCP_ENABLE_DOCKET=true
- FASTMCP_ENABLE_TASKS=true
- FASTMCP_DOCKET_URL=redis://... (or memory:// for single-process)

* Fix tasks example import (TaskStatusResponse → GetTaskResult)
The example was using a non-existent TaskStatusResponse type.
Updated to use mcp.types.GetTaskResult which is what the
on_status_change callback actually receives.

* Fix env var name in Docket error messages
The error messages referenced FASTMCP_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_DOCKET but the

* Update docs for required scopes
* add scopes
* Fix Azure scope validation
Azure returns unprefixed scopes in JWT tokens but requires prefixed scopes in authorization requests. The previous implementation incorrectly validated tokens against prefixed scopes, causing "invalid_token" errors.
Simplified AzureProvider to use standard JWTVerifier with unprefixed scopes for validation. Scopes are only prefixed when building the Azure authorization URL via _build_upstream_authorize_url() override.
Closes#2263
* Improve OAuth client token storage security documentation
Updated warning message and documentation to address security concerns
around storing OAuth credentials for multiple MCP servers.
Implements comprehensive notification system for tools, resources, and prompts with automatic client updates and flexible message handlers.
