Once we have the thing working, optimization can come later.

Also MCP is not really optimal. Every prompt in a sequence of chat gets an injection of MCP capabilities. Its just simply not scalable with lots and lots of MCP servers. Not to mention the protocol changes every month and breaks things.

Furthermore, you can already do MCP like behavior, in a better way, on pretty much any model by basically writing a wrapper around the chatbot and using a system prompt which guides it to print specific text (like "action:load file"), and the wrapper can detect that text and inject the prompt. I have an agent that runs at home using this, which I also use to self improve and define actions on the fly - I ask it to write code, it writes code, then the wrapper takes that code and makes it part of the library and appends it to the system prompt on every new chat.

The point is that we should be able to take the latter, and build something that can do this automatically. Once we have the full loop complete, then we can optimize it down to minimum compute.
