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.
DocketSettings now loads the same dotenv source as core settings, so a
FASTMCP_DOCKET_* value in .env configures the backend instead of silently
using memory://. The root fastmcp publish waits for the matching fastmcp-tasks
to appear on PyPI before uploading, so the [tasks] extra is never installable
but unresolvable. And the example README uses the real worker entry point
(python -m fastmcp_tasks.worker_cli worker).
Server runs over HTTP on the default memory:// backend (no Redis needed); the
client drives it transparently, via an explicit handle, and with a parallel
command that fires several tasks at once to show them overlap. A 1s poll
interval keeps the demo snappy.
A FastMCP client now transparently completes tasked tools/call: the tasks
ClientExtension advertises the capability and claims the CreateTaskResult, and
the resolver drives the tasks/get poll loop to completion, answering in-task
input through the client's elicitation handler and returning the tool's real
result. call_tool is transparent, call_tool_mcp exposes the raw result, and
call_tool_task yields a Task handle. The client half moves to fastmcp-tasks;
the [tasks] client extension auto-wires into Client (ProxyClient opts out).

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.
The task protocol (SEP-1686) is now always enabled - server always
registers task handlers and advertises task capabilities. Users still
opt into background execution at the server level (tasks=True) or
component level (task=True on tools, prompts, resources).

Docket provides background task execution and is now always available
for all FastMCP servers. Only `enable_tasks` remains to control the
SEP-1686 task protocol support.
Changes:
- Remove `enable_docket` setting and related validation
- Docket/Worker lifecycle is always active in server lifespan
- CurrentDocket and CurrentWorker dependencies work without config
- Add server readiness signaling via `_started` event
- Fix test timing issues with proper port probing

* 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
actual setting is FASTMCP_ENABLE_DOCKET.
