* Rewrite the v4 What's New page
Teach the headline features with code instead of asserting them, drop the
major-version throat-clearing and SEP list, and correct the elicitation
claim: ctx.elicit() is unchanged and handshake-only, while sampling and
roots are removed outright.
* Fix broken doc links and stale version references
Repoint five dead links and anchors, refresh v3-era version examples on the
v4 docs, and add the missing FastMCP 3 entry to the installation page's
upgrade section.
* Document server extensions
add_extension() shipped in v4 with no documentation page. Covers the
extension interface, request methods, tool-call interception, lifespan
ownership, and the client half.
* Link the FastMCP TypeScript library
* Address Codex review feedback
Gate the extension interceptor on the client's per-request opt-in rather
than claiming negotiation does it; show the v4 beta pin on the install
page instead of a version a reader cannot get; note that UserSession
requires authentication.
* Always emit a tool title, derived from name when unset
Some MCP clients (e.g. ChatGPT) drop tools with no `title` instead of
falling back to `name` for display as the spec allows. Deriving a
default title in Tool.to_mcp_tool() fixes this for every tool built on
top of it, including the search-transform, code-mode, and session
proxy tools that never set one explicitly.
Fixes#4414
* Derive fallback title from the overridden name, document it
Addresses Codex review on #4694.
* Resolve title precedence from effective overrides
* Normalize mapping annotations before deriving the title
* Remove 3.x-era compatibility shims
* Require response_type in ctx.elicit()
* Name the utilities path for the two non-re-exported auth helpers
* Point sampling handler migration at its submodule
* Document the issuer_url identity change for upgraders
Adds an upgrade note covering the one-time re-authorization, fixes the MultiAuth examples that pointed issuer_url at the upstream IdP, and corrects the OCI docstring.
* Address review: valid docstring example, narrower reauth scope
* Scope the reauth checklist item to token-minting providers
* Add require_roles auth check
* Make role docs runnable standalone and fully annotated
* Treat a scalar role claim as one role; correct step-up docs
* Add v4 version badge to require_roles docs
* Use issuer_url for OAuth issuer identity, not base_url
* Apply ruff format to issuer identity tests
* Align ID-JAG audience docstring with issuer_url
* Make InMemoryOAuthProvider keyword-only like its parent
* Keep ID-JAG audience on base_url, out of scope for issuer identity
* Remove stray scratch script
* Make AuthorizationHandler keyword-only
* Bind ID-JAG audience to the issuer identifier
* Fix double slash in issuer_url well-known log hint
The imperative ctx.sample()/ctx.list_roots() stay removed, but both
capabilities survive as input-required requests, as tests/conformance
exercises on 2026-07-28. Direct LLM calls remain the recommendation for
generation; roots has no round-trip-budget objection.
Deletes fastmcp/server/sampling/, Context.sample/sample_step/list_roots, and
FastMCP(sampling_handler=). The proxy's handshake-era relay now reaches the
front session through the SDK directly.
* Honor OAuth application_type in DCR (SEP-837)
* Simplify web redirect check per ruff SIM103
* Enforce application_type over HTTP, at auth time, and tighten native scheme rules
Recover the DCR application_type the SDK RegistrationHandler drops (P1), enforce the stored type on the authorization redirect path (P2), restrict native to loopback http + custom schemes (P2), and document the web/native rules (P2).
* Fix loopback range detection and use a positive scheme allowlist
Classify loopback hosts with ipaddress.is_loopback so all of 127.0.0.0/8 counts (a web client could bypass the non-loopback rule with 127.0.0.2). Replace the NON_REDIRECT_NETWORK_SCHEMES denylist with STANDARD_URI_SCHEMES: native now accepts only https, loopback http, and unregistered private-use schemes per RFC 8252, so smb/smtp/nfs and other unlisted standard schemes no longer pass.
* Vendor the IANA scheme registry and consolidate the loopback classifier
Replace the hand-picked STANDARD_URI_SCHEMES with a vendored snapshot of the IANA URI scheme registry (423 schemes), so registered transports nobody enumerated (coap, coaps, stun, turn, mqtt) fail closed instead of passing as private-use. Delete the stale duplicate _is_loopback_host in oauth_proxy/models.py and reuse the ipaddress-based classifier from redirect_validation, restoring loopback port flexibility across all of 127.0.0.0/8.
* Treat the reserved localhost namespace and absolute host forms as loopback
RFC 6761 6.3 reserves the whole localhost namespace for the local machine, so app.localhost and localhost. are loopback just as much as localhost. Previously a web client could register https://app.localhost/callback and bypass the non-loopback rule, while native clients were wrongly refused legitimate http://app.localhost:3000 dev callbacks. The suffix test is anchored on a leading dot so localhost.evil.com and notlocalhost stay non-loopback.
* Narrow scope: drop native scheme classification, keep the web rule
Registry membership cannot separate app-dispatch schemes from network transports (vscode is registered because it is an app scheme), so classifying a native client's scheme rejected callbacks that real MCP clients need. Remove the vendored registry and the private-use test; native now accepts any scheme outside the unsafe set, with cleartext http still limited to loopback. Also reject web registrations that omit redirect_uris rather than storing an unusable localhost placeholder.
* Signal component-level scope shortfalls as insufficient_scope (SEP-2350)
* Fix ty type narrowing in scope step-up test
* Respect check short-circuit when reporting scope shortfall (P2)
* Report union of unmet scopes and document step-up contract
* Aggregate scope shortfall across the AuthMiddleware chain
* Stop chain scope aggregation at the first unevaluated gate
* v4 docs quality pass: fix stale task/era claims, broken links, writing polish
* whats-new: add the client-side protocol negotiation story
The page told the server half of the era story (serves every era) but
never the client half — that a default Client(url) now negotiates the
modern era, where earlier versions pinned the handshake. Completes the
mental model and links to the client negotiation docs.
* Address review: drop 'complete' over-claim; link mounted-state to Session State
* Fix stale Mac/Windows-vs-Linux OAuth key/storage docs
#2223 replaced platform-aware keyring/MemoryStore defaults with
deterministic key derivation and an always-on-disk encrypted store,
but the docs update in that PR missed several spots.
* Fix OIDCProxy doc referring to internal upstream_client_secret name
Codex review: the public OIDCProxy constructor takes client_secret;
upstream_client_secret is only OAuthProxy's internal parameter name.
The example README pointed at github.com/PrefectHQ/docket (404); the canonical
repo is chrisguidry/docket. Point the docs' Docket-docs link at the canonical
docket.lol.
* Design doc: stateless session state
* Add stateless session-state primitives: Scope, SessionCodec, scoped state
* Add SessionProvider and Session() annotation for stateless session state
* Rewrite session-state design to final shape (Session object, two patterns, no seal)
* Rework stateless session state to final Session/SessionId design
Remove Scope, SessionCodec/sealing, and scoped ctx.get_state. Add the
Session object (get/set/delete/clear over one dict per (principal,
session_id) key), injected session: Session (keyed by principal, requires
auth), session_id: SessionId argument with auto-filled description, and
SessionProvider contributing create_session/end_session.
* Rename injected marker to UserSession; auto-wire SessionProvider on SessionId
* Document stateless session state as a v4 feature
* Require SessionProvider and make sessions create-then-validate
Remove the implicit SessionProvider auto-wiring; a SessionProvider must now be
registered explicitly. create_session records an owned session and get_session
validates the id, rejecting uncreated or foreign ids.
* Add Session.id (public id for session_id sessions, None for UserSession)
* Fix ty: narrow Tool | None and ToolResult.structured_content in session tests
* Fix session-provider enforcement gap for non-local tools; stop embedding raw principal in UserSession key
* Fix disabled session_id tools blocking listing; reject local tools shadowing SessionProvider lifecycle names
* Decouple SessionId description from lifecycle tool name so it survives namespaced mounts
* Remove SessionProvider enforcement; get_session validation is the guarantee
* Fix stale enforcement/key-format docs; document store-owned session TTL
* Dedup SessionId contract description; tighten context.mdx session-state lead
* Make session store/description resolution work in Docket task workers and for partial tools
* Expose get_session as a standalone task-safe function; drop foreground-only Context.get_session
* Move get_session to dependencies alongside the other request accessors
* Reframe context state docs as Request State; cross-request persistence points to Session State
* Address UserSession injection edge cases from review
- inject a UserSession instance (not bare Session) so isinstance holds
- support session: UserSession | None = None (inject None when unauth)
- detect SessionId params past a partial's positional binding
- Client task support is opt-in via importing fastmcp_tasks (drop the core
auto-load of companion packages); a plain Client never advertises tasks.
- A worker restores the submitting caller's auth token and headers from the
task snapshot into the standard ambient context, so get_access_token() /
get_http_headers() work in a distributed worker with no new core hooks.
- worker_cli validates the loaded extension's resolved backend, not env defaults,
so a constructor-configured Redis worker starts.
- Thread the per-call read timeout through task polling; bound ToolTask.wait by
its deadline; set_elicitation_callback rebuilds internal extensions so a
later-set handler answers in-task input.
- README imports TaskConfig from fastmcp.utilities.tasks.

Server (servers/tasks.mdx) and client (clients/tasks.mdx) docs rewritten for
the extension model: add_extension(TasksExtension()), the guard pattern for
in-task input (no imperative ctx.elicit()), tools-only, and the modern-protocol
requirement (the inverse of the old SEP-1686 legacy-only note). Mechanical
fixes elsewhere for the same reason: telemetry.mdx's tasks/{operation} method
list (get/update/cancel, not result/list), client.mdx's legacy-only feature
list (tasks moved to modern-only) and extension-composition paragraph
(describes the tasks ClientExtension, not the removed notification binding),
and stale SEP-1686 references in the FastMCP 2 upgrade guide. v4-notes status
lines updated to Shipped (#4602, #4603).
Engine modules (keys, context snapshot, docket lifespan, worker CLI,
client handles) move intact; SEP-1686 wire modules park in _legacy_wire
for adaptation to SEP-2663. Core keeps task=True declaration on tools
only and raises at serve time until the tasks extension is registered.

* Add server-side argument completion (@mcp.completion)
* Reference CompletionValues directly in cast so the import reads as used
* Import completion types from mcp_types, not the fastmcp.types mirror
* Fix test imports after dropping the fastmcp.types mirror
* Fix change-register example import after dropping the types mirror
* Enforce 100-value completion cap; make docs example runnable
* Document completion authorization contract
* Offload sync completion handlers to threadpool
* Exclude bare str from completion return type
* Pass Any-typed value in bare-string rejection test
* Point completion authoring types to mcp_types in v4 notes
fastmcp.types re-exported 29 mcp_types symbols verbatim, which was
pointless indirection users had to discover. It now holds only Textarea,
the one type FastMCP actually defines; everything else imports from
mcp_types directly. These mirrors were added during unreleased SDK v2
migration work and never shipped, so this is not a breaking change.
* Mirror front protocol era onto proxy backend connection
A proxy created from a non-Client target now negotiates, on its backend,
whatever era its front client negotiated, instead of pinning one era.
Explicit create_proxy(mode=...) still overrides. Guards the eager backend
initialize() so an explicit modern pin behind a handshake front no longer
crashes.
* Carry the mirrored proxy era into multi-server config backends
A multi-server MCPConfig target mounts one proxy per configured server on a
composite router, so setting the era on the outer client stopped at the router
and every real backend stayed on its default era. TransportOptions.backend_mode
carries it down, resolved per request alongside the outer mirroring.
The router is also sealed under a policy held on the transport rather than a
fresh per-router ephemeral key, so a guard tool's request_state survives the
router being rebuilt between rounds.
* Make the SDK seam the root of FastMCP middleware dispatch (D3)
Notifications, cancellations, and malformed/unroutable messages now reach
on_message/on_request/on_notification at the SDK seam. Component methods keep
their interior dispatch (typed hooks, tool-exception visibility) unchanged; the
seam covers only messages the interior never dispatches, so each hook fires once.
* Document the middleware seam coverage and suspend semantics (D3)
* Align seam docs and ask-visibility test with the result-cycle MRTR model
An InputRequiredResult is the full result of a complete request->response
cycle, not a suspension: component hooks observe an asking round's
InputRequiredToolResult as an ordinary return value.
* Replace 'seam' language with plain dispatch terminology
* Keep the raw middleware __call__ signature; forward middleware message edits
* Cover fires-once across an MRTR continuation round
* Align cherry-picked coverage test with renamed recorder
* Rewrite only the message, never the dispatch destination
