Hey folks - one of the Lead Maintainers for MCP. Happy that we got this release out the door today, this is an exciting change for those that wanted to roll out remove MCP servers into serverless hosts. There is, of course, more good stuff packed, so if you have questions or feedback - our team is here to help!

Thank you for your work! I was looking forward to the stateless update.

Perfect. The actual tool calls are stateless anyway; when an LLM asks get_my_todos and then asks add_todo it’s not actually holding anything in RAM it’s just text going back into the context window (get_my_todos results) and then another tool call
And even on the server side statefulness is very iffy anyway. How long are you going to hold something in RAM from a client and how long will you hold the connection open

Are the HTTP headers for method/name etc even needed at this point and just use urls instead?
e.g. mymcpserver.com/tools/call?mcp-method=search

This protocol change doesn't require you to do anything to existing running MCP code - only if you want to take advantage of new capabilities!
