- MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard protocol for AI agents to access external tools.
- Traditional MCP usage exposes tools directly to LLMs, but converting tools into a TypeScript API improves performance and complexity handling.
- LLMs are better at writing code to call MCP tools than calling them directly due to extensive real-world TypeScript training data.
- MCP provides uniform connectivity, documentation, and authorization for AI agents, making it versatile for various APIs.
- Cloudflare Agents SDK now supports converting MCP tools into TypeScript APIs, enabling code generation for tool calls.
- Dynamic Worker Loading in Cloudflare Workers allows secure sandbox execution of AI-generated code without containers.
- Workers' isolates are lightweight, fast, and secure, making them ideal for running agent-generated code snippets.
- Bindings in Workers provide controlled access to MCP servers, enhancing security by hiding API keys and limiting network access.
- The new approach reduces token waste and improves efficiency by allowing LLMs to skip intermediate neural network processing.
