Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the package metadata and the declarations for stdio and SSE transport dependencies, then compare the current installation behavior with the proposed base package and transport-specific extras. Done means the package can be installed with each requested transport extra while keeping the base installation minimal, with coverage for the supported extras.
