fastmcp.utilities.tasks

Task configuration primitives for FastMCP components.

Classes

TaskMeta ^{<a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/fastmcp/blob/main/fastmcp_slim/fastmcp/utilities/tasks.py#L22" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a>}

Metadata for task-augmented execution requests.

Attributes:

• ttl: Client-requested TTL in milliseconds. If None, uses server default.
• fn_key: Docket routing key. Auto-derived from component name if None.

TaskConfig ^{<a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/fastmcp/blob/main/fastmcp_slim/fastmcp/utilities/tasks.py#L35" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a>}

Configuration for MCP background task execution.

Controls how a component handles task-augmented requests:

• forbidden: Component does not support task execution.
• optional: Component supports both synchronous and task execution.
• required: Component requires task execution.

Methods:
