+Monkey-patch for Google ADK's MCPSessionManager to fix session invalidation on server restart.
+
+This module patches both the MCPSessionManager.create_session method and the retry_on_errors
+decorator to properly handle the case where an MCP server restarts and loses session state.
+
+Root Cause:
+-----------
+When an MCP server restarts:
+1. The server loses all session state
+2. Client-side session streams remain open (not disconnected)
+3. Cached session appears valid because _is_session_disconnected() only checks local streams
+4. Server returns 404 for requests with old session IDs
+5. Tool calls time out waiting for responses
+6. On retry, the same bad cached session is reused
+
+The Fix:
+--------
+We patch the retry_on_errors decorator to:
+1. Detect when an error occurs during MCP operations
+2. Force-close the streams of the cached session
+3. This makes _is_session_disconnected() return True
+4. On retry, create_session() sees the session is disconnected and creates a fresh one
+
+This is a temporary workaround until the fix is merged upstream in Google ADK.
