Updates FastMCP's telemetry to align with the new MCP semantic conventions
from open-telemetry/semantic-conventions#2083. This gives us interoperability
with other MCP implementations while keeping fastmcp.* attributes for things
unique to our framework.
Changes:
- Span names now follow `{method} {target}` format (e.g., `tools/call greet`)
- Added `mcp.method.name` and `mcp.resource.uri` attributes
- Renamed `fastmcp.session.id` to standard `mcp.session.id`
- Kept fastmcp.* attributes for server name, component info, provider details

Validates that session_id is captured on both client and server
spans when using HTTP transport, and that they share the same ID.

- Be specific about which operations are traced (tools, prompts, resources, resource templates)
- Remove "(not the SDK)" parenthetical
- Consolidate attribute documentation - remove redundancy in Tracing section
- Delete unnecessary examples/diagnostics/__init__.py

A few improvements based on code review:
- Don't override existing trace context in `extract_trace_context` - if we're
already in a valid trace (e.g., from HTTP propagation), preserve it rather
than extracting from MCP meta
- Add exception recording to `delegate_span` to match `server_span` pattern
- Remove unused `get_meter` function (metrics not implemented yet)
- Return `None` instead of `{}` from `inject_trace_context` when nothing to inject
- Clean up trivial tests that were just testing OpenTelemetry's own API

- Lead with opentelemetry-instrument as the default approach
- Move programmatic configuration lower in the page
- Remove unimplemented metrics section
- Fix attribute values (resource_template not template)
- Add auth attributes (enduser.id, enduser.scope)
- Add provider-specific delegation attributes
- Link to OpenTelemetry Python docs

The test was checking caplog.records length but OpenTelemetry emits
internal warning logs that were getting captured. Filter to only the
test's logger to avoid flaky failures.

Adds opt-in distributed tracing via OpenTelemetry for observability into
FastMCP server and client operations.
Server spans are created for tool calls, resource reads, and prompt
renders with attributes like component key, component type, provider
type, session ID, and auth context. Client spans wrap outgoing calls
with trace context propagation via W3C headers in request meta.
Components provide their own span attributes through a `get_span_attributes()`
method that subclasses override - this lets LocalProvider, FastMCPProvider,
and ProxyProvider each include relevant context (original names, backend URIs).
To enable: configure an OpenTelemetry SDK with a TracerProvider before
importing fastmcp. Traces export to any OTLP-compatible backend.

The run() call was outside the async with stdio_server() block, meaning
the streams would be closed before being used.

Tasks belong in capabilities.tasks (first-class field) per SEP-1686,
not capabilities.experimental.tasks. This fixes VS Code Copilot 1.107+
integration which checks capabilities.tasks?.requests?.tools?.call.
Changes:
- Update get_task_capabilities() to return ServerTasksCapability types
- Override get_capabilities() in LowLevelServer to set tasks field
- Remove experimental_capabilities parameter usage
- Update test to verify correct location
Fixes#2870
* Consolidate tool transformation logic into TransformingProvider
Tool transformations were previously scattered across LocalProvider,
ProxyProvider, and MCPConfig. This consolidates all transformation
logic into TransformingProvider via with_transforms(tool_transforms={...}).
- Add tool_transforms parameter to TransformingProvider
- Add tool_transforms to Provider.with_transforms()
- Remove transformation storage from LocalProvider and ProxyProvider
- Remove add_tool_transformation() and remove_tool_transformation() from FastMCP
- Add tool_transforms parameter to factory methods (from_openapi, from_fastapi, create_proxy)
- Update tests to use new patterns
* Fix: reject tool lookups by pre-transform name
* Add collision validation for tool_transforms and fix docstring examples
- Validate duplicate target names in tool_transforms raise ValueError
- Fix docstring examples to use arguments/ArgTransformConfig (not args/ArgTransform)
- Add test for collision validation
* Add server-level tool transform APIs and fix task registration
- Add AggregateProvider to present multiple providers as one
- Add _get_root_provider() to apply server-level transforms uniformly
- Fix _docket_lifespan to use root provider (ensures renamed tools
register with correct keys for background execution)
- Add tool_transforms kwarg to __init__ (non-deprecated)
- Add add_tool_transform(), remove_tool_transform(), tool_transforms property
- Deprecate old API names (tool_transformations, add_tool_transformation, etc.)
- Update tests to use new API
* Add graceful degradation for provider errors in AggregateProvider
* Match original behavior: parallel queries with DEBUG logging
* Refactor transforms to middleware-style call_next pattern
Replaces the ad-hoc transformation system with a unified Transform
abstraction using the same call_next pattern as server middleware.
Key changes:
- New src/fastmcp/server/transforms/ module with Transform base class
- Namespace, ToolTransform, Visibility all implement the same interface
- Transforms compose via functools.partial chain building
- Visibility is now just the first transform in provider._transforms
- Server-level transforms apply after provider aggregation
- Task registration now applies full transform chain
Removes TransformingProvider, _BoundTransform, ComponentSource protocol.
User-facing API unchanged: mount(), add_transform(), enable/disable all
work as before.
* Add comprehensive transforms and visibility documentation
New docs/servers/providers/transforms.mdx covering:
- Mental model for middleware-style transform pattern
- Built-in transforms (Namespace, ToolTransform)
- Server vs provider-level transforms and ordering
- Tool modification (immediate vs deferred)
- Custom transform creation
New docs/servers/visibility.mdx covering:
- Enable/disable API for runtime visibility control
- Keys and tags for targeting components
- Allowlist mode with only=True
- Server vs provider visibility layering
Updates existing docs to reference new pages and simplifies
redundant content. Visibility is documented as a user feature,
not as an implementation detail.
* Restructure transforms docs and delete tool-transformation pattern
* Cleanup: simplify get_tasks and remove unused Provider.get_component
* Update loq
* Update loq limits and add loq note to AGENTS.md
* Deprecate add_tool_transformation and tool_transformations param
* Address PR review feedback: remove redundant imports, fix path reference
* Add missing imports to code examples in v3-features.mdx
Fixes background tasks failing with "Background tasks require a running
FastMCP server context" when FastMCP is mounted to another ASGI app
(FastAPI, Starlette) or deployed to serverless environments (Lambda).
Root cause: ContextVars set during lifespan don't propagate to request
handlers in ASGI environments because they run in sibling async contexts.
Fix: Context.__aenter__ now sets _current_docket and _current_worker from
server instance attributes at request time, ensuring they're available
regardless of async context hierarchy.
Changes:
- server.py: Store self._worker on server instance (self._docket was already stored)
- context.py: Set docket/worker ContextVars from server instance in __aenter__
