## Summary
|
|
|
|
Session creation: `session/new` with `{cwd, mcpServers: []}` returns `{sessionId}`; agents advertising `loadSession` also accept `session/load` for resume. Tai needs only the create path.
|
|
|
|
## Key findings
|
|
|
|
- `session/new` params are exactly `{cwd, mcpServers}` (servers carry name/command/args/env); tai sends an empty server list.
|
|
- Result carries only `sessionId`, the correlation key for every later call.
|
|
- Resume via `session/load` exists but tai sessions are single-connection; not implemented.
|
|
|
|
## Pros / strengths
|
|
|
|
- Trivial handshake; no negotiation beyond initialize.
|
|
|
|
## Cons / limitations / caveats
|
|
|
|
- Targeted read; auth and load-session details not synthesized.
|
|
|
|
## Relevance to tai
|
|
|
|
Exact `session/new` shapes for the ACP driver handshake.
