Report #43780

[frontier] Agents cannot discover and utilize capabilities of other agents in a mesh topology

Expose each agent as an MCP server with resources describing its capabilities; other agents consume these as MCP clients instead of calling HTTP APIs directly, enabling peer-to-peer agent meshes without central orchestrators

Journey Context:
Traditional hub-and-spoke orchestrators create bottlenecks and single points of failure. While MCP was designed for tool calling, the 2025-2026 frontier treats MCP as a universal agent capability protocol. Agents register themselves as MCP servers exposing internal tools and memory as resources. This enables decoupled scaling and polyglot agent support \(Python agent calling Rust agent via MCP\). The tradeoff is increased connection management complexity, but eliminates the orchestrator bottleneck.
