+### Streaming_Sse_Protocol_id
+
+- Endpoint: `get /streaming/sse/protocol/id`
+
+An SSE event with an `id` field. The event ID is envelope metadata and is
+not part of the typed event data.
+
+Expected response body (content type `text/event-stream`):
+
+```
+id: event-1
+data: {"message": "hello"}
+
+```
+
+### Streaming_Sse_Protocol_invalidId
+
+- Endpoint: `get /streaming/sse/protocol/invalid-id`
+
+An SSE event with an `id` field containing U+0000 NULL. The field is
+ignored according to the SSE parsing rules.
+
+Expected response body (content type `text/event-stream`):
+
+```
+id: invalid<U+0000 NULL>id
+data: {"message": "hello"}
+
+```
+
+### Streaming_Sse_Protocol_invalidRetry
+
+- Endpoint: `get /streaming/sse/protocol/invalid-retry`
+
+An SSE event with an invalid `retry` field. Since the value contains
+non-ASCII-digit characters, the field is ignored.
+
+Expected response body (content type `text/event-stream`):
+
+```
+retry: not-a-number
+data: {"message": "hello"}
+
+```
+
+### Streaming_Sse_Protocol_reconnect
+
+- Endpoint: `get /streaming/sse/protocol/reconnect`
+
+An SSE stream that resumes after a reconnect. The client sends the most
+recently received event ID in the `Last-Event-ID` request header.
+
+Expected request header:
+
+```
+Last-Event-ID: event-1
+```
+
+Expected response body (content type `text/event-stream`):
+
+```
+id: event-2
+data: {"message": "world"}
+
+```
+
+### Streaming_Sse_Protocol_retry
+
+- Endpoint: `get /streaming/sse/protocol/retry`
+
+An SSE event with a valid `retry` field containing only ASCII digits. The
+field sets the client's reconnection delay and is not part of the typed
+event data.
+
+Expected response body (content type `text/event-stream`):
+
+```
+retry: 1000
+data: {"message": "hello"}
