feat: relax outputSchema to accept non-object JSON Schema types (SEP-2106) (#895)
* fix: address PR review - schema_for_output no longer validates or returns Result

- Add strip_output() that strips title/description without validating type (Dale #1)
- Change schema_for_output to return Arc<JsonObject> instead of Result (Dale #2)
- Cache only Arc<JsonObject> success values, not Result (Dale #3)
- Remove dead unwrap_or_else panic paths in with_output_schema, ToolBase, and macros
- Tighten test assertions from contains to assert_eq on type field (Dale #4)
- Update test_schema_for_output_rejects_primitive to accept_primitive (SEP-2106)

* test(rmcp): add non-object output schema tests for SEP-2106

Add tests verifying schema_for_output accepts non-object types:
- test_tool_builder_methods: primitive (i32), array (Vec<String>), option
- test_structured_output: tool returning Json<Vec<T>> and Json<i32>
- test_json_schema_detection: Json<Vec<T>>, Result<Json<Vec<T>>,E>, Json<String>
- tool_traits: ToolBase::output_schema with Vec<AddOutput> output type

* test(rmcp): add missing edge case tests from code review

Add tests identified during code review:
- description stripping for primitive types
- composition types (Option<String> with anyOf/oneOf/null)
- cache correctness (Arc::ptr_eq for repeated calls)
- schema_for_input rejecting array types (not just primitives)
- schema_for_output accepting unit type ()

* feat!: mark schema_for_output return-type change as breaking

This introduces SEP-2106: schema_for_output no longer validates or
returns Result. The public signature changed, so bump major.

* fix: address Dale's PR review - direct schema.get assertions, remove ArrayTool

- Replace loose schema_str.contains(...) assertions with direct
  schema.get("type") equality checks in test_tool_builder_methods.rs
  and test_structured_output.rs
- Remove redundant ArrayTool fixture and its round-trip
  serde_json::from_str test from tool_traits.rs since schema is
  already Arc<JsonObject>
- Drop dead schema_str variable in test_structured_output.rs

rmcp

Crates.io Documentation

The official Rust SDK for the Model Context Protocol. Build MCP servers that expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI assistants — or build clients that connect to them.

For getting started, usage guides, and full MCP feature documentation (resources, prompts, sampling, roots, logging, completions, subscriptions, etc.), see the main README.

Feature Flags

Feature Description Default
server Server functionality and the tool system
client Client functionality
macros #[tool] / #[prompt] macros (re-exports rmcp-macros)
schemars JSON Schema generation for tool definitions
auth OAuth 2.0 authentication support
elicitation Elicitation support

Transport features

Feature Description
transport-io Server-side stdio transport
transport-child-process Client-side stdio transport (spawns a child process)
transport-async-rw Generic async read/write transport
transport-streamable-http-client Streamable HTTP client (transport-agnostic)
transport-streamable-http-client-reqwest Streamable HTTP client with default reqwest backend
transport-streamable-http-server Streamable HTTP server transport

TLS backend options (for HTTP transports)

Feature Description
reqwest Uses rustls — pure Rust TLS (recommended default)
reqwest-native-tls Uses platform-native TLS (OpenSSL / Secure Transport / SChannel)
reqwest-tls-no-provider Uses rustls without a default crypto provider (bring your own)

Transports

The transport layer is pluggable. Two built-in pairs cover the most common cases:

Client Server
stdio TokioChildProcess stdio
Streamable HTTP StreamableHttpClientTransport StreamableHttpService

Any type that implements the Transport trait can be used. The IntoTransport helper trait provides automatic conversions from:

  1. (Sink, Stream) or a combined Sink + Stream
  2. (AsyncRead, AsyncWrite) or a combined AsyncRead + AsyncWrite
  3. A Worker implementation
  4. A Transport implementation directly
