When an MCP client reconnects, the server has to replay the events it missed, and with only the SDK's in-memory `EventStore`, that replay is impossible: the session lived in one process's memory, so a restart or a reconnect to a different worker loses it. **`mcp-persist` adds drop-in durable `EventStore` backends for SQLite, Redis, and PostgreSQL** that survive process restarts and scale across multi-worker deployments, keeping SSE stream resumability intact.

> 📚 This README is the quick tour. Full reference lives in **[`docs/`](#-documentation)**: backends, CLI, the programmatic API, architecture, benchmarks, and the production guide.

> ⚠️ **Requires the MCP Python SDK 2.0 or newer.** The 2.0 release renamed
> `FastMCP` to `MCPServer`, moved the wire types to the `mcp_types` package, and
> replaced `httpx` with `httpx2`. Supporting both SDK majors would mean import
> shims through all of it, so mcp-persist 2.0 and later target 2.x only.
> **Still on mcp 1.x? Pin `mcp-persist==1.12.2`**, which is feature-identical
> apart from the fixes in 2.0.0. Stored events are unaffected either way: the
> on-disk JSON is byte-identical across both SDK majors, so an existing store
> keeps replaying correctly after you upgrade.

## Quickstart: `with_persistence()`

The fastest way to add resumability to an MCPServer. Wiring it by hand means
an event store, a `StreamableHTTPSessionManager`, a Starlette lifespan to open and
