Unspoken Currency of Office Politics: Leverage and Sanction Between Coworkers (graphthinking.blogspot.com)

I’ve been seeing MCP compared to extensions in web browsers. Which I find telling, since I wouldn’t exactly say web extensions have been a great success - it’s a pretty niche dev market, and the security posture remains pretty anxiety inducing

There's some movement on https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry

> The MCP Registry service provides a centralized repository for MCP server entries. It allows discovery and management of various MCP implementations with their associated metadata, configurations, and capabilities.

@ VS Code we've been collaborating on this and plan to ship initial support for registries in our next release.

Here are a few more:

- https://github.com/wong2/awesome-mcp-servers

- http://mcp.so/servers

- https://cursor.directory/mcp

But as mentioned above, there is an ongoing discussion for the Anthropic registry https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry

There's a huge gap in this market for someone who can take these and make them trustworthy. Maybe the OpenRouter of MCP.

The underlying issue is always relying on a third party, on openrouter you're trusting the end model provider to not do funny business

can't really fix this

I don't see how they could ever be trust worthy without kneecaping the claimed benefits.

Also interesting was mintlify's decision to start one and then shut it down.

Nice story of startup focus.

What is a useful agent build with MCP?

kordlessagain · 34m ago

I have an agent that creates new tools here: https://github.com/kordless/gnosis-evolve. I use it with Claude Desktop for a lot of different things, including browsing or searching for content, with the various crawlers that are out now. There's a crawl4ai tool that is pretty useful.

You don't need MCP you just need function calling

mindwok · 40m ago

Yes because we should all be building function calling implementations for the same 10 SaaS services rather than using 10 standard MCP servers.

hughdbrown · 1h ago

Yeah, but there is a distinct advantage to using a standard.

Suppose you want your agent to use postgres or git or even file modification. You write your code to use MCP and your backend is already available. It's code you don't have to write.

laidoffamazon · 1h ago

Is there a better “universal” or standard framework to do itv

asdev · 1h ago

you don't need any universal standard, you just need functions specific to your app's use case
