The experimental tasks feature in the `2025-11-25` release is **not wire-compatible** with this extension. Implementations that need to interoperate with both surfaces can shim at the SDK level by implementing the experimental and extension flows in parallel and dispatching on the negotiated protocol version and the client capability the peer declared. The following table summarizes the expected behavior for each permutation:

- `tasks/result` is removed. Clients calling `tasks/result` against a server with this extension in the `2026-06-30` specification **MUST** receive `-32601` (Method Not Found).
948-
- The `task` parameter on `CallToolRequest` is removed. Servers receiving requests with a `task` parameter under this extension in the `2026-06-30` specification **MUST** ignore it (treat the field as unknown) rather than using it as an opt-in.
949-
- The `tasks.requests.*` and `tasks.cancel`/`tasks.list` capability declarations are not part of this extension. A server that previously advertised these **MUST** migrate to declaring `io.modelcontextprotocol/tasks` as of the `2026-06-30` specification and **MUST NOT** continue to advertise the legacy capabilities under any protocol version that includes this extension.

Implementations that need to bridge legacy clients can shim at the SDK level: a server can implement both the experimental and extension surfaces in parallel, dispatching based on which capability and protocol version the client negotiated.

| `2025-11-25` | Legacy experimental tasks per the `2025-11-25` specification. The client opts into task augmentation per request via the `task` parameter on `CallToolRequest`; the server uses `tasks/result`, `tasks/get`, `tasks/cancel`, and (where supported) `tasks/list` per that specification. This extension does not apply. | This extension is not defined under the `2025-11-25` protocol version. Servers **MUST NOT** treat this capability as enabling tasks under that protocol version; requests proceed as if the client had declared no task capability at all. |
953+
| `2026-06-30` | The legacy capability is not part of this extension. Servers **MUST** treat clients declaring only the legacy capability as non-declaring with respect to this extension. Servers that simultaneously support the `2025-11-25` Tasks specification alongside this extension **SHOULD** continue to permit `tasks/get` and `tasks/cancel` requests from such clients to operate on tasks created under that flow. | The canonical case. Full task lifecycle as specified in this document, with the following wire-level differences from the `2025-11-25` experimental feature:<ul><li>`tasks/result` is removed; clients calling it **MUST** receive `-32601` (Method Not Found).</li><li>The `task` parameter on `CallToolRequest` is removed; servers **MUST** ignore it (treat the field as unknown) rather than using it as an opt-in.</li><li>The `tasks.requests.*`, `tasks.cancel`, and `tasks.list` capability declarations are not part of this extension. Servers that previously advertised these **MUST** migrate to declaring `io.modelcontextprotocol/tasks`, and **MUST NOT** continue to advertise the legacy capabilities under any protocol version that includes this extension.</li></ul> |

A server that returns the standard `CallToolResult` shape — i.e., never elects to create a task — remains fully spec-compliant under this extension. Clients that have negotiated the extension **MUST** handle both result shapes for any augmented request.
