+# FastMCP teardown wraps the user lifespan
+
+Supersedes [ADR 0001](0001-fastmcp-teardown-via-provider-lifespan.md).
+
+FastMCP 4 enters the user lifespan before entering provider lifespans. The provider approach
+therefore shuts down tracing before user shutdown code runs. The bootstrapper wraps the
+constructor-supplied lifespan on the existing server and forwards its result to FastMCP.
+Teardown runs after that context exits, including when startup or shutdown raises.
+
+FastMCP 4.0.0 through 4.1.6 releases tested here read the private `_lifespan` callable from their lifecycle manager.
+This dependency keeps the supplied server instance and applies to transports that share that
+manager. The regression exercises the manager through a FastMCP client.
+
+## Breaking changes
+
+Lite-bootstrap teardown runs after FastMCP user lifespan shutdown.

+FastMCP runs `bootstrapper.teardown()` automatically after the user lifespan exits.
+Tracing remains active while the user's shutdown code runs.
