Report #83314

[frontier] Agents cannot interoperate because every framework uses proprietary tool definitions and context passing

Implement the Model Context Protocol \(MCP\) specification for all agent-to-agent communication, using MCP Resources for state transfer and MCP Tools for capabilities, effectively treating agents as MCP servers that can be composed into pipelines

Journey Context:
Previous patterns used ad-hoc REST APIs or framework-specific tool bindings that coupled agents to specific SDKs. This creates fragmentation where Agent A cannot hand off to Agent B without custom glue code. By adopting MCP as the 'ABI of AI'—similar to how POSIX standardized OS interfaces—agents become composable primitives. The tradeoff is initial implementation complexity vs. long-term ecosystem compatibility. This is winning because it decouples capability discovery from execution, allowing dynamic agent marketplaces and preventing vendor lock-in.
