Report #61082

[frontier] MCP servers treated as mere tool wrappers leaking state

Deploy MCP servers as stateful 'memory cells' using \`resources\` and \`sampling\` primitives for persistent agent context across sessions.

Journey Context:
Current implementations treat Model Context Protocol as fancy REST APIs for tools \(calculator, search\). The breakthrough is using MCP's \`resources\` \(template-based data exposure\) and \`sampling\` \(server-initiated LLM queries\) to build persistent memory servers. An MCP server becomes a long-lived memory shard that survives individual agent restarts, maintaining embedding indices and conversation history. This moves state out of the agent process into durable MCP infrastructure, enabling serverless agent architectures.
