Notify Clients of Updates
Signal when a resource's contents have changed.
Data Doesn't Sit Still
Resources change: a file is edited, a record updates. MCP lets a server notify clients so they don't keep reading stale content. 🔔
Notifications Are One-Way
An update signal is a notification: a JSON-RPC message with no id and no reply. The server tells the client something happened and moves on.
