SEP-2577 deprecates the Roots, Sampling, and Logging features. The
deprecation is advisory: the features stay fully functional and there is
no wire-level change. Mark the corresponding Rust APIs as deprecated so
downstream users get compiler warnings and migration guidance.
- Forward attributes through the service `method!` macros and deprecate
`Peer::create_message`, `Peer::list_roots`, `Peer::set_level`, and
`Peer::notify_logging_message`.
- Forward per-field attributes through the capability `builder!` macro and
deprecate the generated `enable_roots`, `enable_sampling`, and
`enable_logging` builders, plus the hand-written
`enable_roots_list_changed`, `enable_sampling_tools`, and
`enable_sampling_context`.
- Document the deprecation on the capability types and fields, and in the
README feature sections.
- Allow `deprecated` at the crate's own call sites so the build stays
warning-clean, and refresh the message schema snapshots.

BREAKING CHANGE: CallToolResult.content is now Option<Vec<Content>> instead of Vec<Content>
Closes#312
* fix: correct structured output doctest to use Parameters wrapper
The #[tool] macro requires Parameters<T> wrapper for tool inputs.
This fixes the pre-existing broken doctest in the structured output
documentation example.
* feat: replace Structured<T> with Json<T> for structured output
- Remove Structured<T> type definition and implementations
- Reuse existing Json<T> wrapper for structured content
- Update IntoCallToolResult implementations to use Json<T>
- Add JsonSchema implementation for Json<T> delegating to T
- Update all examples and tests to use Json<T> instead of Structured<T>
- Update documentation and exports
BREAKING CHANGE: Structured<T> has been replaced with Json<T>. Users must update their code to use Json<T> for structured tool outputs.

- Add Default implementation for StructuredOutputServer
- Fix collapsible else-if in simple-chat-client
- No functional changes
* style: apply cargo fmt
Apply automatic formatting changes to:

- crates/rmcp-macros/src/tool.rs - format method chaining
- examples/servers/src/structured_output.rs - reorder imports and format function signatures
* chore: fix formatting
* chore: fix rustdoc redundant link warning
* refactor: validate_against_schema
* feat: enforce structured_content usage when output_schema is defined
This commit implements strict validation to ensure tools with output_schema
consistently use structured_content for both success and error responses.
Changes:
- Enhanced ToolRouter::call() validation to require structured_content when output_schema is present
- Added validation that tools with output_schema cannot use regular content field
- Added comprehensive tests covering the new strict validation behavior
- Created example demonstrating proper structured output usage
- Updated TODO.md to track validation improvements
This ensures consistent response format and better type safety for MCP clients.
* chore: remove TODO.md
* refactor: simplify output schema extraction logic in tool macro
- Extract complex nested logic into dedicated helper function
- Replace deeply nested if-else chains with functional approach
- Use early returns and ? operator for cleaner code flow
- Reduce 46 lines to 7 lines in main logic while improving readability
* chore: run cargo fmt
* fix: enforce structured_content usage when output_schema is defined
Structured content is returned as a JSON object in the structuredContent
field of a result.For backwards compatibility, a tool that returns
structured content SHOULD also return the serialized JSON in a
TextContent block.
https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/server/tools#structured-content
Tools may also provide an output schema for validation of structured
results. If an output schema is provided:
- Servers MUST provide structured results that conform to this schema.
- Clients SHOULD validate structured results against this schema.
https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/server/tools#output-schema
* chore: cargo fmt
