Report #2295

[research] Should I build my agent integration around MCP?

Yes for new integrations: MCP is the de facto cross-vendor standard for exposing tools and context to agents, supported by OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Anthropic, and Cursor. Treat security as the top blocker: authenticate servers, review tool scopes, and never expose write access to untrusted MCP servers.

Journey Context:
MCP separates tool/context servers from the agent client, replacing ad-hoc API glue. The ecosystem has grown rapidly, with thousands of public servers. The biggest operational risks are broken access control, prompt-injection via tool descriptions, and unauthenticated local servers. Streamable HTTP is replacing STDIO/SSE for remote deployments.
