Recommended action: Adopt the tasks extension (advertise via capabilities.extensions, poll tasks/get, use tasks/update) for 2026-era peers; keep the deprecated 2025 task vocabulary only for 2025-era connections via explicit-schema custom requests.
Fix: Migrate to the tasks extension [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Servers/clients using long-running tasks on 2026-07-28
Steps:
1. Advertise io.modelcontextprotocol/tasks under capabilities.extensions
2. Replace tasks/result waits with tasks/get polling; send client input with tasks/update
3. Drop tasks/list usage
4. Gate legacy task vocabulary on negotiated era
Expected: Task flows work on 2026-era connections
