📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds stdio and Streamable HTTP/SSE MCP transports, reconnect support, configurable MCP call timeouts, read-gap HTTP timeouts, fallback deadlines, a stdio server example, integration tests, and expanded pipeline and tool-context documentation.

Changes

MCP runtime and timeout behavior

Layer / File(s) Summary
Transport construction and reconnection
Cargo.toml, README.md, examples/mcp-stdio-server.rs, src/mcp.rs, tests/mcp_transports.rs, CHANGELOG.md
McpClient supports stdio and HTTP/SSE transports. CommandSpec configures child processes. Reconnect rebuilds supported transports with retry backoff. Integration tests cover discovery, failures, cleanup, and reconnection.
Provider timeout propagation and enforcement
src/mcp.rs, tests/mcp_tool_provider.rs
McpToolProvider::with_call_timeout applies timeouts to existing and refreshed tools. Timed-out calls return soft error outputs.
HTTP read-gap timeout semantics
src/provider.rs, CHANGELOG.md
HTTP clients use read-gap timeouts instead of total request deadlines.
Non-streaming fallback deadlines
src/stream/handler.rs, CHANGELOG.md
Fallback requests forward RequestOptions and return FallbackFailed when the total stream deadline expires. Tests cover option forwarding, cancellation, deadline expiry, and completed responses.
Tool context and pipeline documentation
src/engine/bare/config.rs, src/managers.rs, src/tool.rs
Documentation describes middleware host-state injection, manually constructed ToolContext values, and pipeline setup for existing managers.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 1a09b

Reconnect can lose caller-configured TLS, proxy, or header settings, and one connection-failure test may behave inconsistently across environments because it uses fixed port 1. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded risks.

332-350: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Retain the caller-supplied reqwest::Client for reconnect.

http_sse_with_client stores only the endpoint, so reconnect rebuilds the transport with rmcp's default client. A caller that supplies a client for custom TLS roots, a proxy, or default auth headers silently loses that configuration after one reconnect. The reconnected client can then fail to connect or connect with different TLS settings than the caller intended. reqwest::Client is cheap to clone, so the spec can carry it.

♻️ Proposed change: carry the client in the reconnect spec
-    HttpSse(Arc<str>),
+    HttpSse {
+        endpoint: Arc<str>,
+        client: Option<reqwest::Client>,
+    },
     async fn connect(&self) -> Result<McpClient, McpError> {
         match self {
             Self::Stdio(command) => McpClient::stdio(command.clone()).await,
-            Self::HttpSse(endpoint) => McpClient::http_sse(Arc::clone(endpoint)).await,
+            Self::HttpSse { endpoint, client } => match client {
+                Some(client) => {
+                    McpClient::http_sse_with_client(Arc::clone(endpoint), client.clone()).await
+                }
+                None => McpClient::http_sse(Arc::clone(endpoint)).await,
+            },
         }
     }

http_connect then takes the optional client and forwards it into the spec.

Rename this test or delete it.

The name states that a reconnect gives up, but the body never calls reconnect. It repeats the assertion of http_sse_connect_refused_is_handshake_error with the caller-supplied-client constructor. Rename it to http_sse_with_client_connect_refused_is_handshake_error and rewrite the comment to state what it covers.

Inline comments:
In `@CHANGELOG.md`:
- Line 14: Update the changelog entry for the mcp feature to remove the stale
“transport-agnostic” caveat and the claim that stdio and HTTP/SSE transports are
deferred, keeping the descriptions of the currently supported constructors and
public types accurate.

In `@src/managers.rs`:
- Around line 360-363: Update the documentation sentence near
BareLoop::set_pipeline to use the singular type name LoopManagers and read
“LoopManagers is already constructed.”

In `@src/provider.rs`:
- Line 319: Update StreamHandler::fallback_non_streaming and its call site in
BareLoop::do_create_message to accept and propagate total_deadline, then enforce
the remaining turn duration so the fallback fails when the deadline expires
rather than relying only on cancellation. Keep direct ApiClient callers
unchanged.

In `@tests/mcp_transports.rs`:
- Around line 34-38: Update stdio_server_bin to derive the target profile
directory from std::env::current_exe(), move from the test binary’s deps
directory to its parent, and resolve the platform-specific mcp-stdio-server
example executable there, including the Windows .exe suffix. Remove the
hardcoded CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR/target/debug path while preserving the function’s
String return type.

Use a locally controlled failure endpoint.

Line 258 assumes that port 1 is unused. A local service can occupy this port, and firewall rules can drop packets instead of refusing the connection. The test can then fail or wait for a timeout. Bind a loopback listener on port 0, accept one connection, close it, and use that endpoint for a deterministic handshake failure.
