+title: MCP Events
+description: Reference for experimental MCP event methods, the webhook handler, and subscription and storage types.
+---
+
+# MCP Events
+
+This page covers the experimental methods on `client.experimental_events`, the webhook
+handler, and their public types. Create the client with
+[`createMCPClient`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/create-mcp-client). See the
+[MCP Events guide](/docs/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events) for the application flow.
+
+## Setup
+
+```ts
+import { createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
+import { eventStore } from './event-store';
+
+const client = await createMCPClient({
+  transport: { type: 'http', url: 'https://service.example/mcp' },
+  experimental_events: { store: eventStore },
+});
+```
+
+`experimental_events` accepts [`Experimental_MCPEventsConfig`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events#client-configuration).
+In direct mode, the store is required for subscribe, refresh, and unsubscribe.
+Alternatively, configure a managed adapter as described below. Discovery works
+without configuring either mode. Mount the
+[webhook handler](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events#webhook-handler) before subscribing.
+
+The methods below belong to `client.experimental_events`; they are not standalone imports.
+
+## Listing Events
+
+### `client.experimental_events.list()`
+
+Sends `events/list` and returns one catalog page.
+
+```ts
+const { events, nextCursor } = await client.experimental_events.list();
+console.log(events.map(event => event.name));
+
+if (nextCursor != null) {
+  const nextPage = await client.experimental_events.list({
+    params: { cursor: nextCursor },
+  });
+  console.log(nextPage.events);
+}
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+The optional argument has these properties:
+
+<PropertiesTable
+  content={[
+    {
+      name: 'params',
+      type: '{ cursor?: string }',
+      description:
+        'Pagination parameters. Omit to read the first page. Pass a previous nextCursor to read the next page.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'options',
+      type: '{ signal?: AbortSignal; timeout?: number; maxTotalTimeout?: number }',
+      description:
+        'Request cancellation and timeout settings. See Request Options below.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+### Returns
+
+`Promise<Experimental_ListEventsResult>`:
+
+<PropertiesTable
+  content={[
+    {
+      name: 'events',
+      type: 'Experimental_MCPEventDefinition[]',
+      description:
+        'Event definitions with name, optional description, delivery modes, inputSchema, and payloadSchema. See the event definition type reference.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'nextCursor',
+      type: 'string | null',
+      description:
+        'Cursor for the next catalog page. Missing or null means there is no next page.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+See [`Experimental_MCPEventDefinition`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events#event-definition)
+for the definition fields. Pagination is explicit; this method does not fetch all pages.
+
+## Managed Subscriptions
+
+Configure `experimental_events: { adapter }` to delegate subscription lifecycle
+operations to a backend. The adapter implements `Experimental_MCPEventsAdapter`
+from `@ai-sdk/mcp`; it is bound to the authorized account and destination by your
+application or integration package.
+
+```ts
+import { createMCPClient } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
+import { authenticatedTransport, eventsAdapter } from '@/lib/mcp';
+
+const client = await createMCPClient({
+  transport: authenticatedTransport,
+  experimental_events: { adapter: eventsAdapter },
+});
+
+try {
+  // Authenticated MCP discovery; this does not list saved subscriptions.
+  const catalog = await client.experimental_events.list();
+
+  const watch = await client.experimental_events.subscribe({
+    name: 'comment.created',
+    arguments: { document_id: 'doc_123' },
+    context: { bindingId: 'saved_intent_123' },
+    expiresAt: null,
+    idempotencyKey: 'saved_intent_123',
+  });
+
+  const state = await client.experimental_events.getSubscription({
+    id: watch.id,
+  });
+  const page = await client.experimental_events.listSubscriptions({
+    status: 'active',
+    limit: 20,
+  });
+  const stopped = await client.experimental_events.unsubscribe({
+    id: watch.id,
+  });
+} finally {
+  await client.close();
+}
+```
+
+`authenticatedTransport` and `eventsAdapter` are supplied by your application.
+Use the same authorized account for discovery and subscription management.
+Never derive account identity, destination or authorization from model arguments.
+
+### Adapter Contract
+
+```ts
+import type { JSONObject } from '@ai-sdk/provider';
+
+type ManagedSubscription = {
+  id: string;
+  name: string;
+  arguments: JSONObject;
+  status:
+    | 'pending'
+    | 'active'
+    | 'needs_auth'
+    | 'stopped'
+    | 'expired'
+    | 'failed';
+  expiresAt: string | null;
+  cleanupStatus?: 'pending' | 'complete' | 'exhausted';
+};
+
+type ManagedSubscribeInput = {
+  name: string;
+  arguments: JSONObject;
+  context?: JSONObject;
+  idempotencyKey: string;
+  options?: {
+    signal?: AbortSignal;
+    timeout?: number;
+    maxTotalTimeout?: number;
+  };
+} & (
+  | { ttlMs: number; expiresAt?: never }
+  | { expiresAt: string | null; ttlMs?: never }
+);
+```
+
+These types are exported as `Experimental_ManagedSubscription` and
+`Experimental_ManagedSubscribeInput`. Supply exactly one monitoring lifetime:
+a positive `ttlMs`, an ISO deadline in `expiresAt`, or `expiresAt: null` to
+monitor until stopped. The backend validates these values and enforces its limits.
+
+`Experimental_MCPEventsAdapter` has four operations:
+
+| Operation           | Input                                             | Result                             |
+| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
+| `subscribe`         | `Experimental_ManagedSubscribeInput`              | `Experimental_ManagedSubscription` |
+| `getSubscription`   | `{ id, options? }`                                | `Experimental_ManagedSubscription` |
+| `listSubscriptions` | Optional `{ cursor?, limit?, status?, options? }` | `{ subscriptions, nextCursor? }`   |
+| `unsubscribe`       | `{ id, options? }`                                | `Experimental_ManagedSubscription` |
+
+All operations return promises. The client passes inputs, cancellation/timeout
+options, results and errors through without retries or remapping. The adapter
+must implement request-option handling and retain actionable backend errors,
+such as consent required, quota exceeded or temporary unavailability.
+
+Managed IDs identify backend records. `expiresAt` is the application's monitoring
+deadline, not the upstream MCP `refreshBefore` grant. A pending result means
+durable acceptance by the backend; upstream setup may still be running.
+Stopping can return `cleanupStatus: 'pending'` while remote cleanup continues.
+
+The backend owns callback URLs, secrets, upstream subscription calls, verification,
+renewal and cleanup. Managed `subscribe` does not implicitly discover the catalog,
+generate a secret, write a local store or call upstream `events/subscribe`.
+`getSubscription` and `listSubscriptions` are adapter methods, not MCP wire methods.
+The managed facade has no `refresh()`; the backend renews finite upstream leases
+even when the application watch has no deadline.
+
+Persist an application intent and reuse its idempotency key after an uncertain
+create result, within the backend's documented recovery window. A timeout or
+aborted request does not prove that a remote subscription was cancelled.
+Closing the MCP client does not unsubscribe managed watches.
+
+Managed delivery is separate from this client. Use the backend's delivery verifier
+and receiver contract; `experimental_createMCPEventWebhook` serves direct MCP
+webhooks. Applications still own authorized routing, durable receipt acceptance
+and idempotent work dispatch. The adapter does not invoke event callbacks.
+
+### Configuration and Types
+
+Choose either `experimental_events: { adapter }` or `experimental_events: { store }`.
+Mixing them is rejected in TypeScript and at runtime. `validateArguments` is a
+direct-mode option; managed validation belongs to the backend. The unreleased
+`events` configuration spelling is replaced by `experimental_events`.
+
+`createMCPClient` infers `Experimental_ManagedMCPClient` with
+`Experimental_ManagedMCPEvents` when an adapter is configured. Both modes use
+`MCPClientConfig`, whose `experimental_events` property accepts the
+`Experimental_MCPEventsConfig` union. Direct clients keep `MCPClient` and
+`Experimental_MCPEvents`. The input and result types of each mode remain distinct.
+
+Use `satisfies MCPClientConfig` when saving a configuration to retain inference of
+the selected mode. A configuration whose mode is only known at runtime returns a
+union of the two client types; it does not promise direct-only methods such as
+`refresh()`. Omit `experimental_events` entirely for catalog discovery without a
+store or adapter.
+
+The remaining subscribe, refresh and unsubscribe sections describe direct mode.
+
+## Subscribing to Events
+
+### `client.experimental_events.subscribe(options)`
+
+Discovers the named event, checks webhook support, saves a pending subscription,
+and sends `events/subscribe`.
+
+```ts
+const subscription = await client.experimental_events.subscribe({
+  name: 'comment.created',
+  arguments: { document_id: 'doc_123' },
+  delivery: {
+    mode: 'webhook',
+    url: 'https://app.example/api/mcp-events',
+  },
+  ttlMs: 3_600_000,
+});
+
+console.log(subscription.id, subscription.refreshBefore);
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+`options` has type [`Experimental_SubscribeEventOptions`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events#subscription-options):

+
+Pending records are retained when subscription creation fails, because a timed-out
+request might have registered remotely. Obtain the pending record's `key` from
+your application's store and recover with `refresh({ key })`, or
+cancel with `unsubscribe({ key })`. Both reuse the saved callback
+identity even when no server ID was saved. Calling `subscribe` again
+creates a new callback identity.
+
+```ts
+// pending is the record retained by your application's store after a failed subscribe.
+const recovered = await client.experimental_events.refresh({
+  key: pending.key,
+});
+// Alternatively, cancel the uncertain remote subscription:
+await client.experimental_events.unsubscribe({ key: pending.key });
+```
+
+### Returns
+
+`Promise<Experimental_SubscribeEventResult>`:
+
+<PropertiesTable
+  content={[
+    {
+      name: 'id',
+      type: 'string',
+      description:
+        'Server-derived subscription ID. Use it with refresh and unsubscribe.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'refreshBefore',
+      type: 'string | null',
+      description:
+        'Server-granted renewal deadline as an ISO timestamp. Null means no renewal deadline was granted.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'cursor',
+      type: 'string | null',
+      description:
+        'Server-provided replay cursor. If the server omits it, the SDK returns null. Null means no replay cursor is available.',
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'truncated',
+      type: 'boolean',
+      description:
+        'Whether the server reports that the requested replay history was truncated.',
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+The result excludes the signing secret. The store is updated with the server ID,
+deadline, cursor, and active status before the method resolves.
+
+## Refreshing a Subscription
+
+### `client.experimental_events.refresh(options)`
+
+Loads a saved subscription by ID or storage key and sends `events/subscribe` with
+its original name, arguments, callback URL, secret, requested lifetime, and latest
+saved cursor.
+
+The subscription is marked pending before renewal. Event deliveries return `503`
+until the response saves the new expiration and restores active status. If renewal
+fails, the record stays pending because the server may have renewed it already;
+you can retry refresh or unsubscribe using the saved ID or key.
+
+Verified termination messages for a subscription with a saved ID are handled even
+while renewal is pending. For example, if access was revoked, `onTerminated` can
+still run and the saved subscription is removed after successful handling.
+
+```ts
+const renewed = await client.experimental_events.refresh({
+  id: subscription.id,
+});
+console.log(renewed.refreshBefore);
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+Provide exactly one of `id` or `key`.
+
+<PropertiesTable
+  content={[
+    {
+      name: 'id',
+      type: 'string',
+      description: 'ID of a saved subscription in the configured store.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'key',
+      type: 'string',
+      description:
+        'Storage key of a saved subscription. Use this to recover a pending subscription whose server ID is unknown.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'options',
+      type: '{ signal?: AbortSignal; timeout?: number; maxTotalTimeout?: number }',
+      description: 'Request cancellation and timeout settings.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+### Returns
+
+`Promise<Experimental_SubscribeEventResult>`, with the same fields as
+[subscribe](#subscribing-to-events). The new deadline and cursor are saved locally.
+
+Your application schedules renewal before `refreshBefore`. The SDK does not run
+a background renewal timer. Refresh reuses the saved filters without calling
+`validateArguments` again.
+
+## Unsubscribing from Events
+
+### `client.experimental_events.unsubscribe(options)`
+
+Resolves the ID or storage key to the saved name, arguments, and callback URL and
+sends `events/unsubscribe`. It deletes the local record only after the server
+succeeds.
+
+```ts
+await client.experimental_events.unsubscribe({ id: subscription.id });
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+Provide exactly one of `id` or `key`.
+
+<PropertiesTable
+  content={[
+    {
+      name: 'id',
+      type: 'string',
+      description: 'ID of a saved subscription in the configured store.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'key',
+      type: 'string',
+      description:
+        'Storage key of a saved subscription. Use this to cancel a pending subscription whose server ID is unknown.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'options',
+      type: '{ signal?: AbortSignal; timeout?: number; maxTotalTimeout?: number }',
+      description: 'Request cancellation and timeout settings.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+### Returns
+
+`Promise<void>`. If the server request fails, the local record is retained.
+Calling `client.close()` only closes the MCP connection; it does not unsubscribe.
+
+## Request Options
+
+All four methods accept an `options` property with the following fields.
+The listing method takes `{ params, options }`; the other methods include
+`options` alongside their own parameters.
+
+<PropertiesTable
+  content={[
+    {
+      name: 'signal',
+      type: 'AbortSignal',
+      description: 'Abort the MCP request.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'timeout',
+      type: 'number',
+      description: 'Request timeout in milliseconds.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+    {
+      name: 'maxTotalTimeout',
+      type: 'number',
+      description:
+        'Maximum request duration in milliseconds. If timeout is also supplied, the smaller limit applies.',
+      isOptional: true,
+    },
+  ]}
+/>
+
+## Errors
+
+The client rejects requests to servers without the `events` capability.
+Subscription lifecycle methods require `experimental_events.store`; refresh and unsubscribe
+also require a known subscription ID or storage key. Subscribe rejects unknown
+event names, unsupported delivery modes, invalid callback URLs, signing secrets,
+or lifetime settings. These checks use `MCPClientError`, except URL parsing may
+throw `TypeError`.
+
+MCP request errors, store failures, and application validation errors propagate
+to the caller. Event requests are not retried by the client's tool-call retry
+setting. See [MCP client error handling](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/create-mcp-client#error-handling).
+
+## Webhook Handler
+
+### `experimental_createMCPEventWebhook()`
+
+Creates a Web Request/Response handler for experimental MCP webhook events.
+It verifies callback challenges and event signatures using subscriptions saved by
+[`client.experimental_events.subscribe`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events#subscribing-to-events).
+
+### Import
+
+<Snippet
+  text={`import { experimental_createMCPEventWebhook } from "@ai-sdk/mcp"`}
+  prompt={false}
+/>
+
+### Example
+
+```ts filename="app/api/mcp-events/route.ts"
+import { experimental_createMCPEventWebhook } from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
+import { eventStore } from '@/lib/event-store';
+
+export const POST = experimental_createMCPEventWebhook({
+  store: eventStore,
+  async onEvent({ subscription, event }) {
+    console.log(subscription.id, event.name, event.data);
+  },
+  async onGap({ subscription, gap }) {
+    // Some events cannot be replayed; reconcile state or notify the agent.
+    console.log('Replay gap:', subscription.id, gap.cursor, gap.truncated);
+  },
+  async onTerminated({ subscription, termination }) {
+    // The server ended the subscription; notify the agent of the reason.
+    console.log('Subscription terminated:', subscription.id, termination.error);
+  },
+  onError(error) {
+    console.error(error);
+  },
+});
+```
+
+Mount this route before subscribing. The handler and subscribing client must
+access the same private subscription store.
+
+### Parameters
+
+The argument has type
+[`Experimental_MCPEventWebhookOptions`](/docs/reference/ai-sdk-core/mcp-events#webhook-options).

+      name: 'event',
+      type: 'Experimental_MCPEvent',
+      description:
+        'The eventId, name, timestamp, data object, and optional nullable cursor.',

+
+`onGap` and `onTerminated` receive the same safe `subscription` metadata and a
+`messageId` from the signed `webhook-id` header. Each callback receives only its
+matching control payload, so no `type` check is needed. Deduplicate retries by
+subscription ID and `messageId`.
+
+- `onGap` receives `gap: { type: 'gap', cursor, truncated: true }`. It means some
+  events are no longer available for replay. Reconcile application state or
+  notify the agent. The helper adds `truncated: true` and saves it with the fresh
+  cursor after the callback resolves. The subscription remains active and event
+  delivery continues.
+- `onTerminated` receives
+  `termination: { type: 'terminated', error: { code, message, data? } }`. It means
+  the server has ended the subscription. Inspect the error for the reason and
+  notify the agent. After the callback resolves, the helper deletes the saved
+  subscription record.
+
+Both return `204` after successful handling. State updates also occur when
+the corresponding callback is omitted. Callback or storage failures return `503`
+for retry. Events and gaps return `503` until activation or renewal is persisted.
+Termination is also accepted during pending renewal when the subscription ID is
+already saved; subscriptions without a saved ID still return `503`.
+Controls are processed even if the saved expiration has passed. They are never
+sent to `onEvent` or `validatePayload`. The helper does not run or notify an agent
+automatically.
+
+### Returns
+
+```ts
+(request: Request) => Promise<Response>;
+```
+
+The handler accepts `POST` requests with `Content-Type: application/json`.
+Pass the original request body bytes and preserve the `mcp_event_subscription`
+query parameter added by the subscribing client. Do not parse and reserialize
+the body before passing it to this handler.
+
+The server must include `webhook-id`, `webhook-timestamp`, `webhook-signature`,
+and `X-MCP-Subscription-Id`. The helper verifies Standard Webhooks v1 HMAC-SHA256
+signatures and accepts signing timestamps within five minutes of the current time.
+An event's `eventId` must match `webhook-id`, and its name must match the subscription.
+
+## Event Types
+
+The following types are exported from `@ai-sdk/mcp` and are experimental.
+
+```ts
+import type {
+  Experimental_MCPEvents,
+  Experimental_MCPEventsConfig,
+  Experimental_MCPEventDefinition,
+  Experimental_ListEventsResult,
+  Experimental_SubscribeEventOptions,
+  Experimental_SubscribeEventResult,
+  Experimental_MCPEvent,
+  Experimental_MCPEventControl,
+  Experimental_MCPEventSubscription,
+  Experimental_MCPEventSubscriptionInfo,
+  Experimental_MCPEventStore,
+  Experimental_MCPEventWebhookOptions,
+} from '@ai-sdk/mcp';
+```
+
+The shapes below use `JSONObject` from `@ai-sdk/provider` for JSON-compatible
+filter objects. Request settings are written inline because `RequestOptions`
+is not exported from `@ai-sdk/mcp`.
+
+### Webhook Controls
+
+`Experimental_MCPEventControl` is the union of the lifecycle payloads. `onGap`
+receives its `gap` variant; `onTerminated` receives its `terminated` variant as
+`termination`:
+
+```ts
+type Experimental_MCPEventControl =
+  | { type: 'gap'; cursor: string; truncated: true }
+  | {
+      type: 'terminated';
+      error: { code: number; message: string; data?: unknown };
+    };
+```
+
+Unknown extension fields are preserved. Verification challenges are echoed
+automatically and do not invoke `onEvent`, `onGap`, or `onTerminated`.
+
+### Client Methods
+
+`Experimental_MCPEvents` describes the `client.experimental_events` property:
+
+```ts
+interface Experimental_MCPEvents {
+  list(options?: {
+    params?: { cursor?: string };
+    options?: {
+      signal?: AbortSignal;
+      timeout?: number;
+      maxTotalTimeout?: number;
+    };
+  }): Promise<Experimental_ListEventsResult>;
+
+  subscribe(
+    options: Experimental_SubscribeEventOptions,
+  ): Promise<Experimental_SubscribeEventResult>;
+
+  refresh(
+    options: ({ id: string; key?: never } | { key: string; id?: never }) & {
+      options?: {
+        signal?: AbortSignal;
+        timeout?: number;
+        maxTotalTimeout?: number;
+      };
+    },
+  ): Promise<Experimental_SubscribeEventResult>;
+
+  unsubscribe(
+    options: ({ id: string; key?: never } | { key: string; id?: never }) & {
+      options?: {
+        signal?: AbortSignal;
+        timeout?: number;
+        maxTotalTimeout?: number;
+      };
+    },
+  ): Promise<void>;
+}
+```
