Remarks

The Message from a McpException may be propagated to the remote endpoint; sensitive information should not be included. If sensitive details need to be included, a different exception type should be used.

This exception type can be thrown by MCP tools or tool call filters to propagate detailed error messages from Message when a tool execution fails via a CallToolResult. For non-tool calls, this exception controls the message propagated via a JsonRpcError.

McpProtocolException is a derived type that can be used to also specify the McpErrorCode that should be used for the resulting JsonRpcError.
