Description
Migrate Elicitation to Multi Round-Trip Requests (MRTR) and verify back-compat
Part of #481.
Elicitation is used for destructive-op confirmation:
DotNetCliTools.Project.Consolidated.cs(server.ElicitAsync(...))DotNetCliTools.Solution.cs(server.ElicitAsync(...))
Under 2026-07-28, server→client requests (elicitation/sampling/roots) are removed and replaced by declarative MRTR inputRequests/inputResponses. The SDK ships a back-compat resolver, so existing ElicitAsync calls should keep working on legacy connections.
Tasks
- Verify
ElicitAsyncconfirmations still function via the SDK back-compat resolver on legacy clients. - Evaluate adopting MRTR
inputRequestsso confirmations also work natively on pure2026-07-28clients. - Confirm the round-trip cap (10) does not affect the simple confirm flow.
Acceptance
- Destructive-op confirmation works on both legacy and
2026-07-28clients (or a documented limitation if MRTR adoption is deferred).

Research direction
Start with DotNetCliTools.Project.Consolidated.cs and DotNetCliTools.Solution.cs, then inspect how their server.ElicitAsync(...) calls interact with the SDK back-compat resolver. Exercise destructive-operation confirmations on legacy and 2026-07-28 clients, and check whether the 10-round-trip cap affects the flow. Done means both client types work, or the deferred MRTR limitation is documented.
