Feat/tasks mrtr extension#262
Conversation
Adds the first scenario for the SEP-2663 io.modelcontextprotocol/tasks extension — a single TasksLifecycleScenario covering sync vs async dispatch, DetailedTask shape on tasks/get, tool errors vs protocol errors, and cancellation semantics. 8 ConformanceCheck records, all passing against a SEP-2663-conformant Go fixture. Why "tasks" (not "tasks-v2"): SEP-2663 IS the tasks surface once it lands; the v2 suffix is only meaningful in implementations that maintain a v1 surface alongside, which the conformance suite does not. Layout: - src/scenarios/server/tasks/lifecycle.ts — scenario class - src/scenarios/server/tasks/helpers.ts — raw-fetch escape hatch (the SDK's typed schemas strip resultType/inputRequests/...) - src/scenarios/server/tasks/lifecycle.test.ts — fork-local vitest runner. Two modes: spawn a fixture binary via MCPKIT_TASKS_BINARY, or point at an already-running server via MCPKIT_TASKS_SERVER_URL. Skips when neither is set so it doesn't break upstream CI runs that go through everything-server (which doesn't yet implement io.modelcontextprotocol/tasks). Scenario is registered in pendingClientScenariosList so all-scenarios.test.ts skips it; promote to active once the upstream fixture grows extension support. Tagged ['extension', DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] — selectable via --suite extensions and --spec-version draft.
Builds out the rest of the tasks scenarios (atop the lifecycle canary)
and adds the SEP-2322 ephemeral MRTR scenario in a sibling folder.
Both target their own fixtures; both runners are brand-neutral and
language-agnostic (TASKS_SERVER_URL / TASKS_SERVER_CMD,
MRTR_SERVER_URL / MRTR_SERVER_CMD; readiness via TCP polling).
Tasks ClientScenario classes:
- TasksLifecycleScenario (8 checks; v2-01..v2-08)
- TasksCapabilityNegotiationScenario (4 checks; v2-11/22/23/25, SEP-2575)
- TasksWireFieldsScenario (3 checks; v2-12/13/21)
- TasksRequestStateScenario (3 checks; v2-14/15/28)
- TasksMRTRInputScenario (3 checks; v2-16/17/29 partial fulfillment)
- TasksRequestHeadersScenario (3 checks; SEP-2243 request-header tolerance)
- TasksDispatchScenario (8 checks; v2-09/10/19/20/26/27/30/31)
- TasksStatusNotificationsScenario (1 check; SEP-2663 §notifications, optional)
MRTR ClientScenario class:
- MrtrEphemeralFlowScenario (7 checks + 1 SKIPPED; mrtr-01..07,
mrtr-08 deferred for spec terminology +
reference-impl reasons)
Both runners spawn the fixture via a shell command and detect readiness
by TCP-polling the URL's host/port — no log-line scanning, no
language-specific assumptions. The same env vars work for any server
implementation.
Scenarios are tagged ['extension', DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION] and registered
in pendingClientScenariosList so all-scenarios.test.ts (which targets
the upstream everything-server) skips them until the fixture grows
SEP-2322 / SEP-2663 support.
Restructured around ClientScenario classes (one row per class with check-list under it) rather than per-numbered-test slugs. Documents fixture requirements, env vars, open spec questions, and the wire-format diff for each suite. Per AGENTS.md, severity follows spec keyword (MUST/MUST NOT → FAILURE, SHOULD/SHOULD NOT → WARNING). The READMEs explain why some checks emit INFO rather than FAILURE (optional emission paths per SEP-2322).
The bulk of the v2 tasks + MRTR conformance lives in the upstream-bound fork now (panyam/mcpconformance, branch feat/tasks-mrtr-extension; upstream Draft PR modelcontextprotocol/conformance#262). Updates the README/WALKTHROUGH/walkthrough.go references in examples/tasks-v2 + examples/mrtr to point at the fork, the migration guide (docs/TASKS_V2_MIGRATION.md) likewise, and the matching Go test skip (server/mrtr_test.go) to point at the new conformance scenario path. No runtime changes.
Compress CLAUDE.md's Conformance section to a one-liner roll-up + add a Gotchas bullet for MCPCONFORMANCE_PATH (the env var the new testconf-tasks-v2 / testconf-mrtr targets shell into). The detailed fork-vs-local layout already lives in CAPABILITIES.md mcp-tasks-v2-conformance. Add a "Final disposition" footer to docs/SEP_2663_TASKS_CONFORMANCE_PLAN.md recording the graduation upstream (panyam/mcpconformance fork branch feat/tasks-mrtr-extension, Draft PR modelcontextprotocol/conformance#262) and noting the mcpkit-local folders are now vitest sentinels reserved for future mcpkit-stricter scenarios. No memory pruning — the four feedback notes are still working guidance, not duplicates of checked-in docs.
Two reviewer-driven additions: 1. SEP-2663 createdAt / lastUpdatedAt ISO-8601 assertion in `tasks-server-task-creation` (per Luca's PR modelcontextprotocol#262 review feedback). The check now flags servers that emit non-ISO timestamps (epoch seconds, RFC-2822, etc.) on TaskInfoV2 envelopes. 2. Factor cross-cutting test-harness helpers into _shared/: - `_shared/test-runner.ts` — `waitForServerReady` (renamed from `waitForTcpReady`; the call site cares about server readiness, not the TCP-poll mechanism). Imported by tasks/ and mrtr/ all-scenarios.test.ts; replaces ~30 LOC of inline duplication in each. - `_shared/wire-format.ts` — `ISO_8601_PATTERN` constant + `isIso8601(s)` predicate. Documented rationale for choosing a regex over `Date.parse` (too permissive), `new Date(s).toISOString()` (too strict), or `Temporal.Instant.from` (Node 24+ experimental). Future wire-shape predicates (data URI, percent-encoded filename, etc.) can land here. Cherry-pick footprint when graduating to upstream PR is the SEP folder + the imported `_shared/` files. First PR through carries them upstream; subsequent feat branches inherit via standard upstream-sync flow. All 9 scenario tests still pass against the Go reference fixtures.
Pure rename — the call site cares about server readiness, not the TCP-poll implementation detail. Matches the rename now landed on feat/tasks-mrtr-extension (PR modelcontextprotocol#262).
… helpers Drops initRawSession/rawRequest/rawRequestFull from tasks/helpers.ts in favor of the SDK's Client + StreamableHTTPClientTransport, paired with a Zod passthrough schema (AnyResult) that preserves SEP-2663 / SEP-2322 draft fields the SDK's typed schemas would strip. headers.ts and notifications.ts keep a small inline fetch where the SDK can't reach: per-request HTTP headers (SEP-2243) and SSE notification observation. Both reuse the SDK session via transport.sessionId. All SEP-2663 + MRTR ephemeral-flow scenarios pass against the Go fixture.
PR 2663 commit 62758914 standardised every duration field on the Ms suffix, integer milliseconds. wire-fields.ts now asserts ttlMs and pollIntervalMs are present on CreateTaskResult, the legacy v1 ttl and pollInterval keys are absent (already covered), and the interim ttlSeconds / pollIntervalMilliseconds keys are also absent on a post-2026-05-07 server. lifecycle.ts and the scenario README pick up matching prose updates. Verified by make testconf-tasks-v2 (8/8) against a renamed mcpkit fixture, and make testconf-mrtr (7/7 + 1 SKIPPED) against the paired MRTR surface.
SEP-2322 merged on 2026-05-06 with the variant renamed from IncompleteResult to InputRequiredResult and the resultType discriminator from "incomplete" to "input_required" (commit de6d76fb, per dsp-ant request). The MRTR_INCOMPLETE_RESULT_TYPE constant was specifically designed as a one-line flip point for this scenario. Renames - MRTR_INCOMPLETE_RESULT_TYPE = "incomplete" -> MRTR_INPUT_REQUIRED_RESULT_TYPE = "input_required" - isIncompleteResult -> isInputRequiredResult - All "IncompleteResult" -> "InputRequiredResult" in scenario prose and check descriptions (ephemeral-flow.ts, README.md) SEP-2663 had not yet flipped its discriminator literal as of PR head 82fb2c4d (5/7 21:52 UTC). Caitie's 5/15 RC commitment (issue comment 4384052694 on PR 2322) tracks the alignment to "input_required" both sides. The constant remains the one-line flip point in case the 2663 follow-up surprises us. Tested via mcpkit's make testconf-mrtr (7/7 + 1 SKIPPED green against a renamed mcpkit fixture) and make testconf-tasks-v2 (8/8 still green, no regressions on the paired surface).
Lefthook prettier reformatted column alignment on first push attempt; README also had a stale "renamed from InputRequiredResult" — should read "renamed from IncompleteResult". Fix both.
Two stale references in the mrtr-tasks-composition SKIPPED check: - Comment block + errorMessage framed blocker (a) as "spec authors disagree" / "input_required vs incomplete". SEP-2322 merged 2026-05-06 with "input_required" (commit de6d76fb). The blocker now reads as "SEP-2663 has not yet aligned to the merged 2322 literal" — Caitie's 5/15 RC commitment (PR 2322 issue comment 4384052694) tracks the alignment. - errorMessage referenced "IsIncomplete signal" — that field was renamed to IsInputRequired on the mcpkit side in lockstep with the SEP-2322 wire-variant rename. Updated to match. Status stays SKIPPED because blocker (b) — the mcpkit middleware refactor (issue 347) — is still open.
…sage After SEP-2322 merged with "input_required", the only blocker that actually keeps mrtr-08 SKIPPED is the eager-task-creation pattern in reference-server middleware (panyam/mcpkit issue 347). The earlier two-blocker framing read as if the test were waiting on both, but blocker (a) is effectively resolved for any server that emits the merged-2322 literal — leaving (b) as the sole gate. Tighten the comment block + description + errorMessage to lead with the middleware refactor and demote the discriminator history to a parenthetical aside.
Two requested changes from the SEP-2663 author's review pass on
modelcontextprotocol/conformance PR 262
(pullrequestreview-4254601106).
(1) Drop the interim-key absence checks. The transition window between
"ttlSeconds / pollIntervalMilliseconds" and the final
"ttlMs / pollIntervalMs" wording is over now that the merged
spec settled on the Ms suffix. Useful while the spec was in
flight, noise once it stabilized. Removes the absence checks
plus the surrounding comment + description + details fields.
(2) Add Number.isInteger() to ttlMs and pollIntervalMs validation.
Spec says integer milliseconds; the previous typeof + range check
would have allowed fractional values. Now both fields fail if
they're not integers.
README scenario table tightened: "ttlMs + pollIntervalMs present and
integer-valued; legacy ttl / pollInterval keys absent".

Hi @CaitieM20 can I get you to review this too since we are looking at a subset of mrtr tests which intersect with Tasks. Thanks heaps. |
SEP-2663 merged Final on 2026-05-15. Four normative wire changes baked in at merge time. This commit updates the tasks server-conformance scenarios so the suite validates each one as a MUST rather than tolerating divergence as INFO/MAY. 1. notifications/tasks/status renamed to notifications/tasks. The status-notifications scenario now FAILs on observing the legacy method on the v2 surface, and validates the new name's payload shape when emitted. 2. notifications/progress and notifications/message MUST NOT be sent for tasks. Two new absence-asserts on the status-notifications scenario, reusing the existing SSE-observation harness. 3. requestState removed from the tasks-v2 wire. The previous request-state scenario tested the deleted "Request State Management" section; replaced with absence-asserts on CreateTaskResult, DetailedTask, and notifications/tasks payloads. SEP-2322's InputRequiredResult on the MRTR surface still carries requestState and is unchanged. 4. -32003 (Missing Required Client Capability) for required-task tools when the client did not negotiate the extension. New scenario TasksRequiredTaskErrorScenario initializes without declaring the extension, calls a TaskSupport=required tool, and asserts the rejection code plus the structured requiredCapabilities payload. Documents `failing_job` as a fixture requirement. Verified locally against panyam/mcpkit examples/tasks-v2: 8/9 scenarios pass; the request-state-removal scenario intentionally FAILs against the current mcpkit main because the implementation still emits requestState on DetailedTask. That gap is the next item on the mcpkit catch-up plan.

Depends on #271 but flagging this for follow-up as notifications/tasks now arrives in response to subscriptions/listen rather than opening an SSE stream on tasks/get. Under the updated proposal, if the server accepts subscriptions/listen for a task, it returns task status notifications there instead, and does not require clients to additionally poll.

Replaced the whole run() body with a single skipCheck per our Discord agreement to leave the scenario in and skip it. PR 271 has now merged into this branch, so the citation no longer leans on it as a dependency. The harness will be in a followup once 2575 is implemented in our reference sdk.

We should probably remove these retroactive negative checks before merging, I think I might've mentioned that already at some point - a negative test case for something that was never in v1 is only useful for people who implemented v2 before it was actually merged.

Full scenario is now skipped, so none of those inline negative checks execute. Its just 50 ish lines now.

I'm going to be inconsistent with my reviews here and recommend leaving these retroactive negative tests in, in contrast with the notification ones I commented on before. The reason for that is SEP-2322 happens to define requestState in exactly the same place we used to define it in DetailedTask, so it is actually a foreseeable mistake for a fresh implementation of v2 Tasks to accidentally leave in requestState in this context.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Haha - all good. I dont know how you are even keeping up with what is consistent and what is not :)
I went ahead and kept the absence-asserts as you suggested and reframed the doc block around the SEP-2322 lexical-adjacency motivation. This way a fresh reader now sees the "this is a foreseeable copy-paste from InputRequiredResult" framing instead of pre-merge history.

This is actually a MUST requirement here.

Fixed. The JSDoc and the public scenario description now lead with SEP-2575 §"Missing Required Capabilities" as the canonical MUST home of -32003 and with SEP-2663 §"Required Capabilities" applying it to the tasks extension. Ive made sure that specReferences on the -32003 checks now carry both SEP refs.

I recommend a cleanup pass over the whole PR at some point to tidy up these comments which refer to requirements that were dropped midway through the SEP lifecycle and thus won't make sense to people reading this with only knowledge of the merged v1 and v2 states (and not all of the incremental changes made between those points).

+1. Did the cleanup pass across the tasks/* scenarios — dropped the various framings and updated each doc block in terms of the current spec only. The one exception is the SEP-2322 lexical-adjacency context on request-state.ts, which I kept because it's the current-spec motivation for the negative test, not incremental SEP history.

Flagging this for followup - and in the updated composition test, we'll have to ensure that the MRTR phase does allow and maintain requestState, while the Task phase does not allow it.

Acked. This asymmetric invariant (requestState allowed in MRTR but not in tasks) is exactly what I was hoping the composition test needs to encode across phases. I'll file it as a follow-up alongside the subscriptions/listen rewrite once this lands.

Summary
Adds server-conformance scenarios for SEP-2663 (Tasks Extension), with incidental coverage of SEP-2575 (per-request capability override) and SEP-2243 (Mcp-Method/Mcp-Name request headers) in the parts of the surface where they bind to tasks. Plus one new MRTR-adjacent check (
mrtr-tasks-composition, currentlySKIPPED) for the SEP-2663 commit451f5e1MRTR→Tasks promotion flow. 8 ClientScenario classes / ~33 internal checks for tasks plus 1 class / 7 SUCCESS + 1 SKIPPED for the MRTR↔Tasks composition placeholder. Tagged['extension', DRAFT_PROTOCOL_VERSION]per #255 conventions and registered inpendingClientScenariosListso defaulteverything-serverruns stay green.Motivation and Context
SEP-2663 (Tasks Extension), SEP-2575, and SEP-2243 are in active draft and currently have no conformance coverage in this repo. SDKs implementing them - including ones already shipping reference servers - have nothing to validate against, so wire-shape regressions and edge-case behavior (cancellation semantics, requestState handling, capability gating) slip
through SDK-internal tests. This PR fills that gap. The new scenarios assert what the spec text says, not what any specific implementation does, so any SDK can run them.
The MRTR↔Tasks composition placeholder (
mrtr-tasks-composition,SKIPPED) is a forward-looking marker for SEP-2663 commit451f5e1, which made the "MRTR rounds then promote to a task" flow normative on the wire - see the open spec questions below for why it's deferred.How Has This Been Tested?

Additional context
Relationship to PR #188 (SEP-2322 MRTR)
Complementary, not overlapping. SEP-2663 builds on SEP-2322's base types, so a few of the tasks scenarios touch the MRTR shape (
inputRequests,requestState,resultType) in their tasks-on-the-wire form (status:"input_required"ontasks/get,tasks/updateresume path, partial inputResponses fulfillment). The standalone-ephemeral-MRTR coverage stays in #188.The branch also contains a
src/scenarios/server/mrtr/folder with ephemeral-flow scenarios mirroring some of #188's checks. Those exist because the tasks reference fixture exercises the full MRTR base, and running them locally caught a real bug. For this upstream merge:mrtr-ephemeral-flow.tschecks in favor of Conformance Tests for SEP-2322 MRTR #188's scenarios.mrtr-tasks-compositioncheck (currentlySKIPPED) is the genuinely new contribution this PR makes to MRTR coverage.Scope (8 ClientScenario classes, ~33 checks)
