Report #47729

[frontier] Hard-coded tool registries prevent agent interoperability and dynamic capability discovery

Adopt MCP \(Model Context Protocol\) servers as capability registries; agents discover tools via standardized endpoints rather than hard-coded schemas

Journey Context:
Teams initially embed tools directly in agent code, creating tight coupling. The shift is to treat tools as networked capabilities. MCP servers expose tools, resources, and prompts via a standard protocol. This mirrors USB-C for AI: agents query an MCP server to discover available functions dynamically, enabling polyglot tool ecosystems \(Python server, TS client, etc.\) without code changes in the consumer.
