Resolves #275 by immediately rejecting requests sent before the session is fully initialized.
Motivation and Context
Right now, if a client accidentally sends a request (or notification) before completing the
notifications/initializedhandshake, the server just silently hangs. This happens becauseMcpServerSessionroutes it toexchangeSink.asMono(), which waits forever since the sink only emits when the init notification arrives.This PR fixes that silent failure by returning a proper JSON-RPC
-32600(INVALID_REQUEST) error instead. This gives client devs immediate feedback if they mess up the handshake order. I also added a quicklogger.warnso server admins can see these rejections.How Has This Been Tested?
I tested this locally by running the build and verifying the state machine logic in
McpServerSession. Since this just intercepts the request before it hits the sink, it's a very straightforward guard clause.Breaking Changes
No breaking changes. It just replaces an indefinite hang with a fast-fail error response.

Checklist
Additional context
I made sure to append the method name to the error message string to make it slightly easier to debug on the client side. Also double-checked the MCP spec to ensure rejecting pre-init messages with
INVALID_REQUESTis fully compliant.
