See:\n- [typescript-sdk#2176](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk/issues/2176) — TypeScript SDK bug report\n- [conformance#323](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/conformance/issues/323) — Conformance suite self-contradiction\n- [typescript-sdk#2178](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk/pull/2178) — Fix PR for TypeScript SDK\n\n## Impact\n\nServers that enforce SEP-2243 (reject missing `Mcp-Method` with HTTP 400) are incompatible with clients that don't send these headers. This affects cross-SDK interoperability.\n\n## Request\n\nPlease implement `Mcp-Method` and `Mcp-Name` header support per SEP-2243 to ensure cross-SDK compatibility.","author":{"url":"https://github.com/caomengxuan666","@type":"Person","name":"caomengxuan666"},"datePublished":"2026-05-29T13:49:28.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":2},"url":"https://github.com/2715/python-sdk/issues/2715"}
