MCP is going to be a foundational piece of enterprise agent infra.
MCP was much more important when agents weren’t able to accurately make tool calls.
Nowadays, these agents are more capable and I think you can replace MCP (which is a pain on macOS), with simple CLI tools and expose them to agents via system prompt, skills, or other API documentation.
