Cause (Documented platform behavior): Spec 2025-06-18 removed JSON-RPC batching; the Go SDK rejects batches for sessions at that version or later (still accepted for 2025-03-26 sessions). Fix status: documented_behavior Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/e07f0c9d5abf509ac1e47abf27cfa539eeda64a5/mcp/transport.go (github_source, unknown, documented_behavior): ioConn read rejects batches when session protocolVersion >= 2025-06-18 with this message. - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/modelcontextprotocol/go-sdk/e07f0c9d5abf509ac1e47abf27cfa539eeda64a5/mcp/streamable.go (github_source, unknown, documented_behavior): Streamable handler writes the same message with HTTP 400. Search phrasings: JSON-RPC batching is not supported in 2025-06-18 and later; MCP batch request rejected go sdk Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): public_source.

Recommended action: Send messages individually; only 2025-03-26 sessions may batch. Option: Disable batching in client/gateway [evidence: official_recommended_action] Applies when: See trigger Steps: 1. Send one JSON-RPC object per POST/line Expected: Error no longer occurs Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
