Namespace Activation

Demonstrates session-specific visibility control using tags to organize tools into namespaces that can be activated on demand.

Pattern

1. Tag tools with namespaces: @server.tool(tags={"namespace:finance"})
2. Globally disable namespaces: server.disable(tags={"namespace:finance"})
3. Provide activation tools that call ctx.enable_components(tags={"namespace:finance"})

Each session starts with only the activation tools visible. When a session calls an activation tool, that namespace becomes visible only for that session.

Run

# Server
uv run python server.py

# Client (in another terminal)
uv run python client.py

Example Output
