subscribe_to_task_updates(task_id: str, task_key: str, session: ServerSession, docket: Docket, poll_interval_ms: int = 5000) -> None
Subscribe to Docket execution events and send MCP notifications. Per SEP-1686 lines 436-444, servers MAY send notifications/tasks/status when task state changes. This is an optional optimization that reduces client polling frequency. Args:
  • task_id: Client-visible task ID (server-generated UUID)
  • task_key: Internal Docket execution key (includes session, type, component)
  • session: MCP ServerSession for sending notifications
  • docket: Docket instance for subscribing to execution events
  • poll_interval_ms: Poll interval in milliseconds to include in notifications
