Python package adapts to breaking changes in mcp SDK v2.0.0

The author details their experience updating the yantrikdb-mcp Python package to be compatible with the new mcp SDK version 2.0.0. After the mcp SDK removed its fastmcp module, the author initially pinned the package to avoid immediate issues. They then developed a compatibility layer that probes for the correct mcp SDK version, allowing yantrikdb-mcp to function with both mcp 1.x and 2.x. This involved adjusting how network servers were configured and fixing regressions in SSE and streamable-http transports for mcp 2.x. AI

IMPACT This update ensures continued compatibility for AI agents relying on the mcp SDK, preventing disruptions in their persistent cognitive memory substrates.

RANK_REASON The item describes a software package update and compatibility fix for a specific library, which falls under tooling.
