i suggest "mcp message specification".

i think it's fine, except for this sentence:

i would say "communication channels".  i don't really like the word
"multiplexing" here; i might say: "The second, the mcp-cord package,
allows the creation of multiple communication channels within MCP's
single channel."  finally, i think the "multiple MCP sessions" clause
is inaccurate, redundant where it IS accurate, and likely to be
confusing in any case (although it seems cords are doomed to confusion
anyway); i'd take it out.
