MCP stateless means self-contained requests, not memory loss
prdeepakbabu · x · 2026-07-29
A short explanation of what MCP stateless means.
- It does not mean AI apps lose memory.
- It means the MCP server should not hide state inside a long-lived session.
- Each request must be self-contained.
- If continuity is needed, the state should live in a database, cache, or file, and the client should pass back a handle on later calls.
