Recommended action: Parse the response body before acting on 400/404/405: JSON-RPC -32601 means 'method unsupported' (skip feature), -32022 means retry with data.supported, only a non-JSON-RPC body justifies legacy fallback. Option: Classify by JSON-RPC body, not HTTP status [evidence: official_recommended_action] Applies when: See trigger Steps: 1. On 4xx, try to parse a JSON-RPC error body 2. -32601 → feature unsupported; -32020/-32021/-32022 → fix request 3. Only fall back to initialize/HTTP+SSE if body is not a modern JSON-RPC error Expected: Error no longer occurs Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
