feat(mcp): per-server protocol_version for modern-only (2026-07-28) upstreams + conformance CI gate - #981
Merged

Conversation
…8) upstreams, pin the no-fallback bridge contract
The bridge can now open an upstream session with the stateless MCP
2026-07-28 lifecycle: a new optional mcp_servers field, protocol_version,
takes the specification's dated revision identifier ("2026-07-28" is the
only accepted value; earlier revisions need no entry because the default
initialize handshake negotiates among them). Selection is explicit in
BOTH directions — a modern-only server under the default config fails
visibly, and a legacy server under the 2026-07-28 config fails visibly
with no silent cross-generation fallback or probing.
Counter-example tests pin the three bridge failure shapes observed in
auto-bridging gateways: a stateful legacy upstream always receives the
complete initialize sequence; downstream Authorization / session id /
protocol-version headers never cross to the upstream; a mis-generation
connect fails loudly instead of silently dropping or downgrading.
The official conformance suite becomes a CI gate: a pinned package
version drives the 13 tools-surface scenarios against the shipped
scoped-gateway chain (scripts/mcp-conformance.sh; deliberate exclusions
documented there and in the example's module docs).
The control-plane half (cp-admin.yaml enum, dashboard field, i18n,
CP<->DP e2e) ships separately in the control-plane repository; until it
lands, the field is reachable through the declarative resources file.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds explicit per-server protocol selection and a merge-blocking conformance job. It is mergeable with owner awareness because control-plane exposure and end-to-end coverage are deferred to the paired follow-up, while the official gate does not cover the new 2026-07-28 lifecycle; these are bounded integration and test follow-ups rather than identified runtime defects.

Pull request overview
Adds explicit per-upstream MCP protocol revision selection to support modern-only (2026-07-28) upstream servers, plus new bridge-boundary tests and a CI job that gates on the official MCP conformance suite.
Changes:
- Introduces per-server
protocol_version(2026-07-28) in theMcpServerresource model and generated schemas/OpenAPI. - Extends the MCP bridge to open upstream sessions via either legacy
initializeor modernserver/discoverlifecycle based on configured protocol revision. - Adds bridge contract tests for modern-only upstreams and a new CI job that runs the pinned upstream conformance suite via
scripts/mcp-conformance.sh.

… harden the conformance gate - Test the protocol_version wire value end to end: the pure upstream_from_mcp_server mapping (including unknown-revision rejection) and the full deserialize -> snapshot -> from_snapshot_scoped -> bridge chain against a modern-only upstream. Reverting any link of the mapping now fails a test. - Drop server-sse-multiple-streams from the conformance scenario list: it requires a server-minted session id, which this stateless gateway never issues — the scenario ran zero checks and gated nothing. - Harden the pass detector: require CLI exit 0 AND at least one executed check AND zero failures; a 0/0 not-applicable run or a nonzero exit with a clean-looking summary no longer counts as coverage. - Pin the suite's full transitive graph with a committed lockfile (tools/mcp-conformance, npm ci) instead of a floating top-level npx pin. - Make the conformance job merge-blocking by folding it into the required e2e-gate aggregate; add job timeout, per-scenario timeout, bounded readiness probes, and wait-based cleanup.

Add control-plane support before merge.
This test inserts protocol_version directly into AisixSnapshot. It does not verify that the control plane validates, persists, and exposes this user-configurable field. The PR objective explicitly defers dashboard support.
Implement the required control-plane schema, model, dashboard, i18n, and integration/UI coverage before merge. As per coding guidelines, “A user-configurable data-plane feature is incomplete until the control plane can validate, persist, and expose it.”

Add required coverage for MCP 2026-07-28.
The pinned @modelcontextprotocol/conformance 0.1.16 source supports only older revisions. Its server helper calls client.connect(), so the selected scenarios exercise the stateful initialize lifecycle. scripts/mcp-conformance.sh passes no revision selector.
Upgrade to a release with 2026-07-28 scenarios and pass its revision selector. If no such release is available, add a separate required test for the handshake-free server/discover lifecycle.

…dog, stricter pins - mcp-conformance job: read-only permissions + persist-credentials: false (the job executes third-party npm code after checkout). - Conformance detector additionally requires 0 warnings (deterministic under the lockfile pin), and the macOS fallback now bounds scenarios with perl alarm instead of running unbounded. - RmcpBridge::connect doc reflects lifecycle selection. - Stateful stub now REJECTS post-initialize requests without the exact minted session id, so the sequence test also fails if the bridge drops the session header. - Header non-forwarding test collects every value per header name — a forwarded duplicate can no longer hide behind first-match.

Spec: https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2026-07-28 (SEP-2575 discovery / SEP-2567 stateless HTTP). Of the two gateway implementations that have shipped this revision, one uses an explicit per-upstream protocol strategy with era-relative enum values and no automatic fallback; the other auto-bridges and currently carries open regressions where downstream version/session context crossed the protocol boundary — those regressions are exactly the counter-example tests here. This PR lands on the explicit-selection posture with dated identifiers instead of era words; the trade-offs and the future
autopath are recorded in the internal tracking issue.Cross-plane note
protocol_versionis a user-facing config surface, so this DP PR implies the paired CP work (closed-enum incp-admin.yaml, dashboard field + en/zh i18n, CP↔DP e2e) — tracked inAISIX-Cloud#1151and shipping as the follow-up CP PR. Until it lands the field is reachable through the declarative resources file. Deploy order: DP first — on pre-#871 data planes the strict write path whole-row-rejects rows carrying the unknown field; post-#871 read paths load leniently but would silently ignore it, so exposing the field in the control plane before the data-plane rollout completes would let users save configuration that does not yet apply.Tests
cargo test --workspace: 3114 passed, 0 failed. New:crates/aisix-mcp/tests/modern_upstream.rs(5 scenarios: modern-only happy path with zeroinitializeattempts; both visible-failure directions with zero cross-generation probes; downstream-context isolation; full handshake sequence to a stateful upstream).bash scripts/mcp-conformance.sh— 12/12 locally (exit-0 + ≥1-check + 0-failed per scenario); the same script is the new CI job, merge-blocking via the requirede2e (vitest) + coverageaggregate.Audit triage (two independent auditors, per repo rule 8)
Auditor A (cold) — BLOCKED-ON 2 findings, both fixed: (1 HIGH) the config→lifecycle mapping could be reverted with all tests green → now pinned twice (pure
upstream_from_mcp_servermapping incl. unknown-revision rejection, plus the full snapshot-row→scoped-gateway→modern-only-upstream chain); (2 MEDIUM)server-sse-multiple-streamswas a 0-check WARNING scenario on a stateless server and the detector accepted 0/0 → scenario dropped with rationale, detector requires ≥1 executed check. Its LOWs: GNU-onlysed(now portablegrep -A2) and the deny_unknown_fields wording (corrected above).Auditor B (independent toolchain) — BLOCKED on overlapping findings plus three of its own, all fixed: exit-status now required alongside the summary grep; the suite's transitive dependency graph is lockfile-pinned (
tools/mcp-conformance, the top-level npx pin left the SDK floating on^1.27.1); the job is now merge-blocking by folding into the requirede2e (vitest) + coverageaggregate (branch protection untouched); timeouts and wait-based cleanup added.Accepted-with-justification (no code change): header-leak assertions run on
tools/callonly — the bridge builds every request from its own session state, so there is no per-method forwarding path to regress independently; the stateful-sequence test doesn't assert the session-id echo — rmcp's session handling is SDK-internal and the sequence itself is the gateway's contract; no meta-test pins the scenario COUNT — the list is the script, and the merge-blocking gate plus per-scenario detector cover the real risk (a silently weakened list still has to pass every remaining scenario for real).Bot round 2 (CodeRabbit 4 + Copilot 2) — adopted: read-only job token + no persisted credentials on the npm-executing CI job; zero-warnings requirement in the pass detector; perl-alarm watchdog so the macOS path stays bounded; connect() doc drift; stateful-stub session enforcement; multi-value header assertion. Skipped with reason: Copilot's readiness-probe-timeout comment predates the hardening commit (the probe already runs
--max-time 2per attempt, bounded loop); CodeRabbit's "add control-plane support before merge" is the cross-plane pairing this PR already declares — the paired CP PR follows inAISIX-Cloud, and the required rollout order is DP first, so gating this merge on the CP half would invert the deploy order.Summary by CodeRabbit
