feat(mcptest): add roots handler support by Whxuan0701 · Pull Request #955 · mark3labs/mcp-go

Whxuan0701 · 2026-08-18T12:31:30Z

Description

Adds roots handler support to the mcptest.Server harness, matching the existing sampling and elicitation handler APIs. Tests can now provide workspace roots to tools that call server.RequestRoots without manually assembling a client or transport.

Type of Change

Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
MCP spec compatibility implementation
Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
Documentation update
Code refactoring (no functional changes)
Performance improvement
Tests only (no functional changes)
Other (please describe):

Checklist

My code follows the code style of this project
I have performed a self-review of my own code
I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works
I have updated the documentation accordingly

Additional Information

SetRootsHandler is opt-in and must be called before Start, preserving the harness lifecycle and existing behavior. The end-to-end regression test registers a roots-capable server tool, calls RequestRoots, and verifies the configured workspace URI is returned through the real stdio test harness.

Validation:

go test ./... -race
go vet ./...
(cd otel && go test ./... -race && go vet ./...)

All commands passed locally.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Added support for handling roots requests in test servers.
- Added a configurable roots handler for returning root information.
Tests
- Added end-to-end coverage for roots capability negotiation, tool invocation, response validation, and handler call counts.

Walkthrough

Changes

The test server now supports configurable roots request handlers. Client initialization registers the handler, and tests verify roots capability setup, root URI delivery, synchronized call counts, and handler invocation.

Roots request support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Server roots handler wiring `mcptest/mcptest.go`	`Server` stores a roots handler, exposes `SetRootsHandler`, and registers it during client initialization.
End-to-end roots request validation `mcptest/mcptest_sampling_elicitation_test.go`	Tests use mutex-protected call counters. The roots test invokes `RequestRoots`, validates the returned root URI, and checks the handler call count.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 01c84

The PR adds roots-handler support, but required linting, generation, and atomic coverage checks still need to be completed or explicitly accepted before merge.
