Allow custom or numeric request ID generation (Snowflake MCP server rejects string IDs)

Expected Behavior

The Java SDK should provide a way to configure how request IDs are generated. This could include:

• A public interface or callback for supplying a custom RequestIdGenerator.
• Configuration options to choose between UUID-based, string-based, or numeric-only IDs.

This would help support MCP servers that require strict numeric IDs or forbid UUID/string-based request IDs.

Current Behavior

Currently, the Java SDK:

• Uses a private generateRequestId() method.
• Uses an internal private counter.
• Produces UUID-counter formatted IDs like "62d0970d-0".
• Provides no public extension point to override or customize ID generation.

This causes compatibility issues with MCP servers (such as Snowflake's MCP implementation) that accept only numeric IDs.

Example (hypothetical API):

McpClient client = McpClient.builder()
    .withRequestIdGenerator(() -> String.valueOf(counter.incrementAndGet()))
    .build();

Context

When integrating with the Snowflake MCP server, requests are rejected because the Java SDK always generates UUID-based IDs.

Workarounds include:

• Implementing a custom transport such as SimpleHttpTransport.
• Remapping request and response IDs manually.

These solutions work but duplicate SDK logic and introduce unnecessary complexity. Providing a built-in, configurable ID generation mechanism would make the SDK more flexible and easier to use.

Beginne damit, die private Methode generateRequestId() und den internen Zähler nachzuverfolgen, und untersuche anschließend, wie der McpClient-Builder und der Transport Request-IDs weitergeben. Fertig ist die Aufgabe, wenn das SDK einen konfigurierbaren Generator bereitstellt, der numerische IDs erzeugen kann, während das bestehende Verhalten erhalten bleibt; überprüfe, dass Request- und Response-IDs kompatibel bleiben.
