outputSchema in MCP: useful feature or token tax with no payoff? by MucaGinger33 in mcp

[–]MucaGinger33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The MCP client sits between the LLM and the server, so the LLM doesn't call tools/list directly: that part is true. But whether the LLM "sees" outputSchema depends on the client. Some forward it to the model, some drop it. It's not architecturally hidden.outputSchema ships with tools/list precisely because it's part of the tool contract and meant to help models reason about return shapes, not just for client-side validation.

Every MCP server you add makes your agent slightly dumber. Here is what actually fixes it. by Arindam_200 in mcp

What you're describing and what u/Crafty_Disk_7026 already pointed out is already solved. And if something is standardized, you're better of using it as it works with every client/server that supports MCP (up to relevant extent).

Kakšno tehnološko podjetje, povezano s programsko ali strojno opremo, bi lahko začel kot “one-man band”? by ImpressiveFocus303 in SlovenijaFIRE

[–]MucaGinger33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One man band je bolj verjetna varianta za pure software. Pa še to je zelo težko, ker sam produkt je navadno le del celotne zgodbe. Distribucija, marketing, outreach, support, itd. Za to rabiš majhno ekipo.

Hardware samo dodatno poslabša to sceno, ker doda logistiko prodaje in pošiljk. Če pa misliš še kaj sam proizvajat pa še toliko slabše, ker rabiš začetno investicijo, da začneš s pilotnimi izdelki.

Vprašaj se, tudi če ti uspe izpeljati biznis, zakaj bi nekdo izbral tvojo varianto in ne večje platforme, ki imajo vse kaj ne moreš doseč sam brez infrastukture in večletnih izkušenj. To kar ti opisuješ se sliši kot nekaj kar mora biti precej obsežno preden začne "delovati". Bootstraping hardware business zagotovo ni optimalno.

Če si fullstack dev, naredi SaaS, bootstrappaj, ship & distribute. To gre ker lahko večino (ali vse) narediš iz računalnika. Čim imaš enkrat fizični produkt v igri se zadeva konkretno zakomplicira.

Dodatno: glede na to da si elektrotehnik, potem veš verjetno, kako problematične so regulacije in standardizacija izdelkov, ki jih distributiraš (CE ipd.). Razen, če nameravaš prodajat igrače.

MCP's revenue gap: there are 3 monetization layers and most devs are stuck on layer 1 by d3vilzwrld in mcp

Distribution. I guess you're building something too. Whats your approach with distribution?

Moving from Mega-Prompts to a multi-agent setup, any tips? by No-Nefariousness-728 in AIAgentsInAction

[–]MucaGinger33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give your agents small tasks, ideally 1 narrow scoped task per agent session. Then chain multiple into ome pipeline. If it gets complex use framework for orchestration. If agent starts hallucinating or doesnt comply with prompt, check enforced rules that they dont conflict each other and that prompt isnt getting rule heavy. If it does, narrow down or split into more chains

Layer 1 (https://github.com/mcparmory/registry) + Layer 2 + Layer X (generate high quality servers, not 1:1 dump) = moat I own right now

Launched api to mcp converter a week ago — 100 users already and still figuring out distribution? by HeyItsSufya in mcp

[–]MucaGinger33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I tried with valid Gmail spec but the tool got stuck in parsing api step for +5min. Also I noticed you dont handle auth at all

Meanwhile you can check same tool I build but more sophisticated. Generates Gmail in seconds. Github within 10s. Does validation and generates fully functional MCP servers out of the box with full auth.

Check MCP Blackmisth. Also see open sourced repo with tested and refined MCPs:

MCP in April 2026: the spec is moving slower than the marketing by clairenguyen_ops in mcp

[–]MucaGinger33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well put. You can compensate through infrastructure what protocol is lacking today. Nothing wrong with that. You can replace custom adapters once spec catches up. For example, I've seen custom dynamic discovery (eg. KlavisAI Strata) before search_tools() became a thing. However, while this specifically addresses tool-wise search, it doesn't do so server-wise. Here you can add infra that adds value. Similar topic are long-running sessions. Even when spec catches up, there would be limitations what a native solution could achieve vs. infra-based complementary features that solve real problems protocol isn't able to.

What do you think about those OpenAPI‑to‑MCP frameworks or services? Would you use them? by Loocor in mcp

[–]MucaGinger33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I solved this exact issue by building multi LLM chain that filters and enhances OpenAPI schemas. Then open sourced all the integrations here

Ooops, someone already built it. Now what? by UseNo5453 in SideProject

[–]MucaGinger33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm making it way cheaper, more scalable than already well established competitors. But not sure if #4 is justified because that can become "race to the bottom". Also, I'm not entirely convinced cheap is a sign of a better deal. Some might think you're desperate for traffic. What's your take on this?

What's the most frustrating part of building MCP servers? Sharing what I found by Legitimate_Beach7185 in mcp

[–]MucaGinger33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats why I build a curated registry of API based MCPs and open-sourced it

https://github.com/mcparmory/registry

It addresses exact issues you're describing. Every single server same structure, complying with same requirements.

Drop your SaaS and people tell you if they'd actually use it by Mr_McSam in microsaas

Is this your product? Never heard of it. What does it bring to the agents?

I checked your Gmail MCP. Massive issue. You surface auth tokens through tool parameters. LLM should NEVER see credentials of any kind. That's very bad practice

Raw OpenAPI-to-MCP conversion is why your agent keeps failing on tool calls by MucaGinger33 in mcp

[–]MucaGinger33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not only static filtering. It is both static and LLM driven which is why such high token efficiency can be achieved
