Anthropic Product
MCP is the reason tool ecosystems exploded, and it’s also why context windows get polluted so fast—tons of tool definitions and tool outputs end up in the prompt. I reference MCP here because Anthropic has a track record: when they ship a standard like this, the industry copies it.
Pros
- +Standardizes how tools are exposed to agents
- +Widely adopted across the industry
Cons
- -Naive MCP usage can bloat context with tool definitions and call traces
- -Often needs extra patterns (tool search, code mode) to stay efficient
