Microsoft releases MCP C# SDK 2.0 with stateless HTTP and new discovery

Microsoft has released the stable 2.0 version of its MCP C# SDK, which implements a significant protocol revision. This update defaults to a stateless HTTP transport, removing the need for session initialization and enabling better load balancing. Clients now use a discovery mechanism instead of a handshake, with request details embedded in headers for easier routing. Mid-call elicitation has been moved to Multi Round-Trip Requests, and several APIs related to roots, sampling, and logging are now deprecated. AI
