+<summary>Deprecated: SSE Transport Examples</summary>
+
+> **Note:** SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport has been removed from newer versions of the MCP specification. Streamable HTTP is the preferred transport for HTTP-based MCP servers as it is more reliable. These examples are kept for reference but should not be used for new implementations.
