Model Context Protocol (MCP) Elicitations enable MCP servers to pause tool execution and request missing information from users. This tutorial demonstrates building an MCP server with Spring AI that exposes a tool for fetching author details, conditionally triggering elicitation requests when accessing premium content. It covers creating both the MCP server with the @McpTool annotation and an MCP host application using Claude Opus 4.5, including configuring the MCP client, enabling elicitation capabilities, and implementing an elicitation handler with @McpElicitation to respond to requests for additional user context.
