A recent update to the mcp Python SDK to version 2.0.0 has caused widespread issues for various AI tools, including AutoGen, LlamaIndex, and Copilot CLI. The new version introduced breaking changes in its API, such as altered return types for functions, renamed variables, and updated JSON schema requirements. Many tools that did not properly pin their mcp dependency were affected when they automatically updated to the new version, leading to their servers becoming unresponsive. The primary solution involves pinning the mcp dependency to a version prior to 2.0.0 or applying specific patches for affected tools. AI
