How are people using MCP and MCP servers today? Cursor, Claude, Zed? What about CLIs? cc @pfista @stevedylandev.eth @jachian @tarun would love your thoughts.

While Iโve dabbled in MCPs I personally still prefer the basic Zed AI integrations - Chat with context - Inline assistant Might be something I mess around with more in the future

right now there are only a few clients all focused on developer tooling but my prediction is most saas apps will become an mcp client and tap into a universe of servers to get agent workflows in their apps meaning if an app wants to embed an agent like experience, they don't have to build all the agents themselves, they can become an mcp client and tap into a whole bunch of other agents available to them mcp is nothing more than a standard, so you don't have to use it, but if you choose to, you get the natural advantage of connecting easily with services that do (if thats beneficial to your users) the streamable transport will be a huge unlock for usability, as will auth

These are the most used tools in skeet right now. We were surprised how much people like to use sequential thinking, but that's the revealed preference- with talking to databases in 2nd. I think what we'll see over time are templates that call multiple tools as part of a use case or workflow. For example, devs commonly will create a branch, add a pull request, and assign someone to review. This might call git, github, and then assign someone in linear. MCP will unlock agentic workflows for these kinds of tasks.

Iโm in agreement with @pfista statement about MCPs moving toward template workflows that hook up multiple tools Inside companies I think you can go beyond the template if you build one like an MCP gateway internally that can be the touchpoint for eventually multiple agents For now the starting point from db connection is a powerful one in a lot of domains

been wondering this too, also need to look more into how much better MCP truly is/can be vs. function calling

trying to find good usecase, no luck now. I think most popular mcp features will be integrated into llm providers, like browsering internet.
