Что было

MCP Inspector показывал юнику как урезанный legacy-сервер, а расследование обмена вскрыло реальные дефекты modern-провода: без cache-полей SEP-2549 ни один modern-клиент (TS SDK v2) не мог принять tools/list, subscriptions/listen уходил в бесконечный цикл -32601-ретраев, набор версий наследовался у SDK целиком, пагинация списков была мертва.

Решение (crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs)

Декларация — только реализованная поверхность. capabilities = ровно {"tools": {}} (пиннится тестом). Prompts, resources, completions, logging, experimental, расширения tasks/ui и флаги listChanged/subscribe сознательно не объявляются: рекламируемая пустая поверхность отправляет capability-gated агентов зондировать тупики. Каждая из этих возможностей вернётся в декларацию вместе со своей фичей-реализацией.

Проводная корректность modern-эры (2026-07-28):

  1. Cache-поля SEP-2549. Wire-схемы 2026-07-28 требуют ttlMs/cacheScope у list-результатов — без них modern-клиент отвергал tools/list как невалидный. Modern-пирам поля проставляются (ttlMs: 0 = «не кешируется»); legacy-провод не изменился ни на байт (пиннится тестом).

  2. Ровно три версии протокола. supported_protocol_versions закреплён на гарантируемой матрице хостов: 2025-06-18 (Codex), 2025-11-25 (Claude Code), 2026-07-28 (modern direct-first). Более старые ревизии не предлагаем: прошедший хендшейк обещал бы семантику, которую никто не верифицирует.

  3. Пагинация tools/list для modern-пиров. 25 инструментов на страницу, offset-курсоры; не выданный сервером курсор — -32602. Legacy-пиры получают весь реестр одной страницей, как раньше.

  4. Честные ответы на зондирование недекларированных поверхностей. prompts/list, resources/list, resources/templates/list — валидные пустые списки (с modern cache-полями); subscriptions/listen — подтверждение с пустым accepted-набором (пересечение с декларацией) вместо -32601-цикла; logging/setLevelmethod_not_found, ничего не притворяется существующим.

Верификация

  • 45 wire-тестов в interfaces::mcp; полный прогон unica-coder --lib3262 passed, 0 failed; bootstrap-верификация обоих lifecycle зелёная; cargo fmt --check чистый.
  • Сквозная проверка реальным @modelcontextprotocol/client 2.0.0 (SDK Inspector-а), versionNegotiation: auto: era modern / 2026-07-28, capabilities: {"tools":{}}, 74 инструмента через постраничную склейку, tools/call unica.project.status — ок.
  • Inspector 2.2.0 живьём (в ходе ветки): Era MODERN, Supported versions ровно три, постраничный режим «Paginated» пройден до конца (25 → 50 → 74, «3 pages loaded · end»).

Попутные находки (вне объёма PR)

Вне объёма

Наполнение resources/prompts, реальные tasks/* поверх runtime jobs, использование клиентских capabilities (elicitation/sampling/roots), ui-виджеты — каждая фича включит свою декларацию сама.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for MCP protocol versions 2025-06-18, 2025-11-25, and 2026-07-28.
    • Modern clients receive paginated tool listings with validated cursors and private cache metadata.
    • Added support for empty prompt, resource, and resource-template listings.
    • Subscription requests are acknowledged as no-op subscriptions.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Preserved legacy client compatibility with unpaginated responses and legacy fields.
    • Improved handling of invalid pagination cursors and protocol version negotiation.

…lds, subscriptions channel, exact version set, tools/list pagination

- get_info declares the whole declarable surface: prompts/resources/completions/
  logging/experimental plus the tasks and ui extensions (SEP-2663/SEP-1724);
  logging/setLevel is accepted instead of method_not_found
- list results carry the SEP-2549 ttlMs/cacheScope required by the 2026-07-28
  wire schemas for modern peers; legacy responses stay byte-identical
- accepted_subscription_filter accepts the requested filter, so the
  subscriptions/listen channel implied by listChanged capabilities works
  instead of failing every attempt with -32601 (Inspector retried forever)
- supported_protocol_versions pinned to the guaranteed host matrix only:
  2025-06-18, 2025-11-25, 2026-07-28 — older revisions are not offered
- modern peers page tools/list (25 per page, offset cursors, unknown cursors
  rejected with invalid_params); legacy peers keep the whole-registry page
- wire tests pin all of the above; full modern session verified against
  @modelcontextprotocol/client 2.0.0 (era auto -> 2026-07-28) and Inspector 2.2.0

Limit details: You’ve used all 2 included reviews currently available under your plan.

You've used all free OSS reviews for now. Wait for the free limit to reset to keep reviewing this public repository.

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The MCP server now supports three protocol versions, paginated modern tool discovery, cache metadata, subscription acknowledgements, empty list responses, and validation across legacy and modern response paths.

Changes

MCP protocol modernization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Protocol versions and response contracts
crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs
The MCP interface defines the supported protocol versions, detects modern peers, validates cursors, and declares the tools-only capability surface.
Modern listing and subscription behavior
crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs
Modern peers receive paginated tool listings with continuation cursors and private cache metadata. Legacy peers retain complete tool listings. Empty prompts, resources, and resource-template responses are supported.
Protocol behavior validation
crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs
Tests validate protocol discovery, capability declarations, cache fields, subscription acknowledgements, pagination coverage, schema-only tools, legacy compatibility, and invalid cursors.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 921c4

The new paginated tools/list behavior can repeat full tool-projection work for every page, adding avoidable CPU use and latency when clients load the complete catalog. The risk is bounded and mergeable with owner awareness or follow-up optimization.

1408-1424: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use a unique JSON-RPC id per request in the rejection loop.

The loop sends four requests with "id": 0 on one connection. JSON-RPC requires unique ids inside a session. An SDK that tracks or deduplicates request ids can drop or mismatch later replies, and the failure would look like a cursor-validation bug. Increment the id.

254-287: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Build the tool registry once instead of once per page.

list_tools calls tool_definitions(&crate::application::tools()) on every request and then keeps at most 25 entries. The existing size test reports about 1.27 MB of JSON for the full projection, and schema stripping runs for all 74 tools each time. A full modern traversal therefore builds the whole registry three times. Cache the projection in a OnceLock and slice the cached slice.

♻️ Proposed refactor
+fn all_tool_definitions() -> &'static [Tool] {
+    static ALL: std::sync::OnceLock<Vec<Tool>> = std::sync::OnceLock::new();
+    ALL.get_or_init(|| tool_definitions(&crate::application::tools()))

1363-1406: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Pagination tests hardcode the page size and the registry size. Both tests assert against literals, so a page-size change or a new tool breaks them for reasons unrelated to pagination. TOOLS_PAGE_SIZE and crate::application::tools().len() are both in scope in the test module.

  • crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs#L1363-L1406: replace 25 with TOOLS_PAGE_SIZE and both 74 values with crate::application::tools().len().
  • crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs#L1295-L1301: replace the expected first-page length 25 with TOOLS_PAGE_SIZE.

Comment thread crates/unica-coder/src/interfaces/mcp.rs Outdated
… correctness

Per review direction: unused capabilities (prompts, resources, completions,
logging, experimental, tasks/ui extensions, listChanged/subscribe flags) are
withheld from the declaration until each feature ships with an implementation,
so capability-gated agents never probe advertised-but-empty surfaces.

Kept from the previous commit: SEP-2549 cache fields for modern peers, the
exact three-version set, modern tools/list pagination, and graceful handling
of probes at undeclared surfaces (empty lists with valid modern wire shape;
subscriptions/listen acknowledged with an empty accepted set instead of an
-32601 retry loop; logging stays method_not_found). Also fixes cargo fmt.

…est ids, constants over literals

- all_tool_definitions() caches the ~1.3 MB registry projection in a OnceLock
  instead of rebuilding it on every tools/list page
- the cursor-rejection test uses unique JSON-RPC ids per request
- pagination tests assert against TOOLS_PAGE_SIZE and the live registry size
  instead of hardcoded 25/74
The version-matrix doc comment named concrete hosts, which the platform
boundary guardrail forbids inside the coder module; the cursor validation
used a manual modulo check clippy now rejects.
