MCP for agents never made sense, especially when the tokens they consume a significant amount of tokens on a single request for a basic action, and sustained usage blows up you token costs.

The spec was poorly designed to begin with. Even saw some folks here thinking it was a good idea to enable MCP directly on a production database for what? Risking exfiltration of sensitive data for bad AI agents.

Given the increased security capabilities of these new models (Mythos, Astra, K3), it sounds like MCP would not be able to justify on making sense from a security perspective and would be a very bad idea to use anyway.

So no thanks and no deal.

Well, think of the near-future when tokens are so cheap that they’re not worth to meter.
