Will Skills and Code Execution replace MCPs eventually?

I doubt that. MCPs are broader. You can serve a Skill via a MCP but the reverse may not be always true.

For example, you can't have a directory named "Stripe-Skills" which will give you a breakdown of last week's revenue (unless you write in the skills how to connect to stripe and get that information). So, most of the remote, existing services are better used as MCPs (essentially APIs).
