When does this happen?
IF Server needs to restrict file operations to specific directories and support dynamic updates without restart.
How others solved it
THEN Configure the filesystem server to use MCP Roots (recommended) instead of command-line arguments. The client sends roots on initialization and can update them via notifications/roots/list_changed. This allows runtime directory changes. Ensure the server is not started without roots or command-line directories, otherwise initialization fails.
// In client: send initialize with capabilities.roots: true // After connection, server requests roots/list, client returns roots array. // To update, client sends notifications/roots/list_changed, server fetches new roots.
