- Line 363: Restructure the async flow around the asyncio.get_running_loop()
probe so the executor submission and future.result() handling remain exclusively
in its else branch, preventing worker RuntimeError values from entering the
no-loop fallback. Handle _setup_client_and_list_tools() and
discovery_client.disconnect() failures within the existing event-loop path,
reusing the active loop rather than invoking nested asyncio.run calls.
In `@lib/crewai/tests/mcp/test_tool_resolver_native.py`:
- Around line 102-131: Update
test_resolve_native_from_running_loop_uses_executor_path in
TestResolveNativeAsyncioThreadAffinity to use a thread-aware fake or narrow
affinity-checking mock instead of AsyncMock methods. Make setup/discovery raise
the event-loop affinity error unless executed in the executor worker thread,
then assert the operation completes successfully and records execution from that
worker thread.

Thanks @coderabbitai for the thorough review. Both comments addressed: 1. Restructured async flow in The executor branch is now in the 2. Thread-aware fake in the executor path test (test_tool_resolver_native.py) Replaced Branch has been rebased onto latest |

Preserve the discovery error during active-loop cleanup.
When discovery fails after connect(), a failing disconnect() replaces the discovery error. The outer cleanup then runs new_loop.run_until_complete(...) and asyncio.run(...) in the caller thread, so both fail inside an active event loop.
Add a regression test for successful connect(), failed list_tools(), and a first disconnect() failure that leaves the client connected. Assert that cleanup retries in a worker thread and that _resolve_native raises the wrapped discovery error. Update cleanup to preserve the original error.

Restore the resolver implementation before merging. This file currently contains only the literal token test, so importing it raises NameError. MCP-enabled agents fail when resolving tools, and the regression test cannot import or patch MCPToolResolver. Restore the previous implementation, then reapply the intended _resolve_native thread-affinity fix and worker-thread disconnect cleanup.

Summary
Fixes #6843
In
lib/crewai/src/crewai/mcp/tool_resolver.pyline 363,asyncio.run()receives a coroutine object that was created in the calling thread, butasyncio.run()executes it inside a worker thread (viaexecutor.submit()). Python's asyncio requires coroutines to be awaited in the same thread/event loop that created them, causing a thread affinity crash.The Bug
_setup_client_and_list_tools()is evaluated beforeexecutor.submit()runs, creating the coroutine in the calling thread. When the worker thread then callsasyncio.run(coro), it fails because the coroutine belongs to a different thread's event loop.The Fix
Wrapping in a
lambdaensures both the coroutine creation andasyncio.run()happen inside the worker thread, maintaining thread affinity.Test
Added
TestResolveNativeAsyncioThreadAffinity.test_resolve_native_from_running_loop_uses_executor_pathwhich exercises theexecutor.submitcode path by calling_resolve_nativefrom within a running event loop.
