Summary by CodeRabbit

Walkthrough

The change adjusts the initialization sequence in examples/simple_client/main.go by moving the client start call (c.Start(ctx)) earlier in the code path for the stdio transport case, immediately after client creation. The later, common start call is removed, affecting only the stdio transport flow.

Changes

Files Change Summary
examples/simple_client/main.go Moved c.Start(ctx) to immediately after stdio client creation; removed later start call; error handling for start remains unchanged.

57-60: Good fix for stdio client initialization timing.

Moving the client start call immediately after creation for stdio transport makes sense, especially since the stderr logging setup that follows likely requires an active client connection.


38-90: Verify that HTTP client initialization still works correctly.

The stdio client is now started immediately after creation, but there's no visible start call for the HTTP client in this code path. Please ensure that HTTP clients are either:

  1. Started elsewhere in the codebase, or
  2. Don't require explicit starting before use, or
  3. Are started automatically during the Initialize() call

This verification is important to prevent introducing a regression in the HTTP transport path while fixing the stdio issue.
