Claude Code does not yet support MCP elicitation, according to a post on X

According to a post on X by @wojakcodes, Claude Code does not currently support elicitation, the part of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) spec that lets a server ask the user for input partway through a task. The poster, who was building an MCP server, asked Anthropic whether a fix is coming and linked an open GitHub issue tracking the gap. The post is a single developer's report and does not give a release date or a timeline for support.

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

@wojakcodes, building an MCP server, discovered that Claude Code doesn't support elicitation, the part of the MCP spec that lets a server ask the user for input mid-task, and asked Anthropic whether a fix is coming. They linked the open GitHub issue. Why it matters: MCP server authors can't rely on every client...

Developers building MCP servers cannot assume every client supports the full spec, so they may need fallback behavior when elicitation is unavailable. Teams relying on Claude Code for agent workflows should check the linked GitHub issue for progress. Whether Anthropic responds or ships support is the next thing to watch.
