Comment on: Making MCP cheaper via CLI

> Yeah this is just straight up nonsense.I was just sharing my experience I'm not sure what you mean. Just n=1 data point.From first principles I 100% agree and yes I was using a CLI tool I made with typer that has super clear --help + had documentation that was supposed to guide multi step workflows. I just got much better performance when I tried MCP. I asked Claude Code to explain the diff:> why does our MCP onbaroding get better performance than the using objapi in order to make these pipelines? Like I can see the performance is better but it doesn't intuitively make sense to me why an m

They didn't reinvent it, it's literally using JSONRPC. The thing they "invented" was coming up with a loose standard for how to implement your RPC endpoints in a way that the AI was pre-trained to interact with.The actual implementation may have been very janky but the idea itself is sound: If you want to interact with arbitrary services then providing one single protocol (ideally not JSONRPC but hey) with a standard api discovery method and standard starting method call means your super-intelligent machine god can connect to any MCP service with just a URL and figure everything out from there

> Skills don’t pollute the context window and, skills are more flexible and composable.they do but more importantly model does not give a flying fuck about what you put in there in any consistent way.ppl have been mislead by ai companies that they've invented some sort of agi that you can 'explain' to using skills. So ppl have come up with also sorts of skills that dont do jack shit.

In fact this aspect of "re-inventing and then congratulating oneself for it" has been a factor in software since the dawn of the subject - it is now with AI/ML, becoming far more endemic across a far broader group of people, who ordinarily would not have done software development properly if it weren't for the immense power that comes from glib application of tooling, minus methodology.I have long observed that tooling+methodology is a very distinct skillset in software developers - those who treat both subjects with appropriate governance, excel - those who ignore one for the other, tend to m
