Evidence
  1. 1. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: the Agent Plugins compatible-client registry explicitly lists MCP Streamable HTTP for Grok Bot. This is registry evidence, not an independent transport test.
  2. 2. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Anthropic documents adding remote Claude Code MCP servers with the HTTP transport and a server URL.
  3. 3. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Gemini CLI documents Streamable HTTP as a supported MCP transport using HTTP streaming.
  4. 4. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Cursor documents Streamable HTTP as a supported local or remote MCP transport using an HTTP endpoint.
  5. 5. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Cline documents Streamable HTTP as its recommended remote MCP transport and provides an explicit `streamableHttp` configuration.
  6. 6. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Continue documents `streamable-http` remote MCP configuration and its pinned desktop client constructs the MCP SDK Streamable HTTP client transport.
  7. 7. Evidence checked 2026-08-28: Zed documents a single remote MCP endpoint, while its pinned HTTP transport sends JSON-RPC with POST and accepts JSON or request-scoped SSE responses.
