 ### Change notifications become one stream
 
-At 2026-07-28 the standalone HTTP GET stream and `resources/subscribe` are replaced by `subscriptions/listen`: the client opens one long-lived stream and names the notification kinds it wants. `MCPServer` serves it out of the box; you publish with `await ctx.notify_resource_updated(uri)` (and `notify_tools_changed()`, and so on), and multi-replica deployments plug in a shared `SubscriptionBus`. On the client (since `2.0.0b2`), `async with client.listen(...)` opens the stream: the filter goes in as keyword arguments, typed change events come back, and `sub.honored` is the subset the server agreed to deliver. One honest caveat: over stdio the server does not serve the stream yet.
