Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR exposes managed MCP activity in Messages streams and removes replayed activity before budget estimation. Merge readiness has a bounded follow-up: one unit test should wrap an awaitable before scheduling it so its ordering assertion actually runs.

Verified on the PR head: make lint, make typecheck (mypy strict, 522 files) and the 65 relevant unit tests pass, and no OpenAPI-affecting surface changed, so the generated-artifact gate is clean.
Five findings inline. The first two are client-visible regressions.
Review by Claude Code (Opus 5), run by @HareeshBahuleyan's reviewer.
Emit server-owned mcp_tool_use and mcp_tool_result blocks around gateway-executed MCP calls while retaining execution ownership in the internal loop. Strip replayed activity before budget estimation, preserve explicit MCP error status, and avoid leaking transport error details. Co-Authored-By: GPT-5.6 Sol <noreply@anthropic.com>
Keep transport exception details out of model-facing tool results and narrow MCP-specific backend capabilities through a typed protocol. Correct the replay-normalization test and clarify gateway tool ownership in the documentation.
Strip orphaned gateway MCP results before admission, keep web-search replay stripping behind its interception gate, and log only tool failure exception classes. Add focused regression coverage for each review finding.
Emit beta-only MCP activity blocks only when callers declare the Anthropic MCP client beta. Keep MCP execution unchanged for stable streaming clients and cover both request modes with focused tests.

Description
Why
Gateway-owned MCP calls were hidden from Messages streaming clients, so activity UIs could not show tool execution or its result. Echoed activity also needed to be removed before budget admission so hidden result content could not cause false budget rejection or estimate-based charging.
What changed
Messages streams now emit paired server-owned
mcp_tool_useandmcp_tool_resultblocks while Otari retains execution ownership. The gateway preserves explicit MCP errors, avoids exposing transport details, strips replayed activity before prompt estimation, and keeps provider-native blocks intact.PR Type
