The Python SDK needs to implement support for servers to initiate operations and return immediately with task identifiers, enable clients to check back periodically for results or subscribe to task completion notifications, handle disconnections and reconnections gracefully, and provide APIs for managing multiple concurrent long-running tasks across all MCP operations to enable more resilient handling of asynchronous operations.\n\n### Related Issues \u0026 PRs\n\n- **Implementation PRs**: n/a\n- **Related PRs**: [#1398](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk/pull/1398)\n- **Related Issues**: [#769](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk/issues/769)","author":{"url":"https://github.com/felixweinberger","@type":"Person","name":"felixweinberger"},"datePublished":"2025-10-30T12:07:49.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":4},"url":"https://github.com/1546/python-sdk/issues/1546"}
