    One of my favorite parks and much lesser knows is Westpark in Munich. Similarly built around usage and still unique since it was originally built for a national garden exhibition i…

    The Java SDK is currently a Tier 2 SDK.. As a Tier 2 SDK they have up to 6 months to implement it. I know they are actively working towards support for the specification. Best to j…

    Hey I am the one Lead maintainer of the MCP protocol. I agree and hear you that file uploads are a pain. As the core maintainer group we have deferred the work on this for this rel…

    It is fine to have corners of the internet that run in a particular way. My issue however, is that this is changing the rules on people. Codeberg initially was a FLOSS alternative …

    I am still a bit surprised that this is not more widely used. Normal inference + tool calls is effectively composition via serialized natural language, whereas Code Mode / Programm…

    Little historic sidenote: Zed was the first MCP client next to Claude Desktop

    Give the model an interpreter like mlua and let it write code to compose MCP calls together. This is a well established method. It’s the equivalent to calling CLIs in bash, except …

    Give the model a REPL and let it compose MCP calls either by using tool calls structured output, doing string processing or piping it to a fast cheap model to provide structured ou…

    Tools like Claude Code have improved here. They won’t load all tools but instead rely on tool search. Context bloat of MCP servers was a thing if badly written clients but it’s cer…

    It has little to do with financing. In addition to the development cost there is now also a membership fee. What a donation to the Linux foundation offers is ensuring that the trad…

    I appreciate the take. I can certainly see your position. In my mind what we are doing is building a common place to evolve the pattern. I wouldn’t really call it “standardize”, si…

    All it means that there is a common place and a recommendation that if you care as a client implementor (e.g. postman, chatgpt and others do), there is a spot to look for a general…

    I want to also highlight that this is an optional "extension" to MCP, not a required part of specification. If you are a terminal application, only care about tool calling, etc, yo…

    I have followed Makepad since Raph Levien pointed me towards it, while developing Xi. I am so stoked about this. What they have achieved in terms of UI framework is so unique in th…

    Hey, I am one of the MCP authors. We appreciate the criticism and take it very seriously. We know things are not perfect and there is lots of room for improvement. We are trying to…

    You can use it with any LLM in LibreChat, Cody, Zed, etc. See https://modelcontextprotocol.io/clients . The protocol doesn’t prescribe an LLM, has facilities to sample from the cli…

    Really appreciate the write up. I am one of the authors of MCP and this helps a great deal giving a good overview of where we need to do better. I was a bit under the water over th…

    Thank you. That’s good feedback. The gist of it is: you have an llm application such as Claude desktop. You want to have it interact (read or write) with some system you have. MCP …

    At the moment only Claude Desktop supports MCP. Claude.ai itself does not.

    Having broader support for SSE in the servers repository would be great. Maybe I can encourage you to open a PR or at least an issue. I can totally see your concern about sandboxed…

    I would probably more think of it as LSP for LLM applications. It is enabling data integrations, but the current implementations are all local.

    We are still a bit light on documentation on how to integrate MCP into an application. The best starting point are the respective client parts in the SDK: https://github.com/modelc…
