All MCP adds is a session token. How is that not already a solved problem?

P

It makes it part of the protocol so the llm doesn't have to handle it, which is brittle

And look at the patent post I've replied to choice of protocol, I'd like to see a session token over ftp where you need to track the current folder per conversation.

  • But the agent harness is still handling the session token for you either way. MCP might be an easy way for agent harness creators to abstract the issue away, but I don’t want to lose all REST conventions just to make it a little easier for them to write an agent harness.

    It makes it harder for the LLM to understand what’s going on, not easier.
