Passing client context to tools

I would like to be able to pass some "out of band" context to a tool in an MCP server. This would be separate from the arguments that are extracted by the LLM and provided to the tool function.

How do I pass this "extra" data to the tool?

Thank you for any help.

I ran into the same issue. Instead of struggling to figure it out, I ended up writing my own MCP from scratch — it was much faster and way more optimized.

Thank you for any help.

I also had this problem because my app needs to add user data to the tool

Can one of the contributors / maintainers comment, please?

Perhaps there is a way to do this, that I haven't discovered?

Thank you.

I've opened a PR to hopefully solve this issue #574
