- The MCP Dev Summit in London saw significant interest from large corporates, indicating strong adoption potential for the bleeding-edge technology.
- Future protocol development focuses on "Agentic Discovery," where MCPs are discovered and installed by LLMs autonomously, raising security concerns.
- Security challenges like prompt injection attacks are hard to mitigate, but automated installation could transform non-technical user experiences if resolved.
- Most MCP clients only support basic primitives, creating a chicken-and-egg problem with fragmented compatibility similar to early web browsers.
- Many MCP gateways are emerging, offering features like easy OAuth integration to address implementation difficulties.
- Agentic Experience (AX) was highlighted as a new specialization, emphasizing simple adjustments like flexible parameter formats and improved error messages to enhance tool accuracy.
