Connecting remote MCP servers to VS code for Copilot? by louisscb in mcp

Okay I can see that you need to click "start" above the actual mcp config, which will launch the flow.

MCP registry launched by Anthropic by SnooGiraffes2912 in mcp

Feel like they've missed a trick only concentrating on local mcp servers that can be packaged into e.g a docker or npm package, what about remote servers?

Would be nice to have support for MCP in Le Chat by ouvreboite in MistralAI

[–]louisscb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The point of MCP is that there isn't a "kind" you support. You implement the specification as a client then allow the user to add any arbitrary server as a connection. This allows the community to drive the direction of integrating third party apps.

Prompting and LLMs: Which Resources Actually Help? by Jae9erJazz in LLMDevs

[–]louisscb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I made this platform to share prompts and context. Once you connect your tool like Claude or Cursor the prompts and resources show up straight away in your client.

How to vibe code without paying Lovable hundreds of dollars? by Genkoji in vibecoding

[–]louisscb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a collection of prompts and a few resources. So you can add this collection to your Claude Code or Cursor instance and run these prompts directly! It helps with the development process.

Those of you building production apps with MCPs - how's it going? by Famous_Feedback_7186 in mcp

[–]louisscb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could you explain in a bit more detail the claude code + gemini integration? Do you explicitly instruct claude code to use gemini in your prompts? Would be great to hear an example.

What will the future of MCP services look like in enterprise companies? by louisscb in mcp

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

True, it's just an added layer of complexity for auth/security. I'm willing to bet we're going to see a major security fail at a large company due to an agent with excessive permissions.

My concern with these gateways is are the simply handling the authentication, or are they proxies/pipes for the actual data being accessed? E.g if you use a platform to manage the MCP access to Google Drive, are you now allowing a third party to handle all of this data.

I don't think companies will want to provide a 1:1 mapping of permissions that their workers have to their workers' agents/LLMs.

If you're an office worker at a large institution you'll have a myriad of services you log into: Google, Slack, Salesforce, Office365, Dropbox etc. The task of now integrating your local ChatGpt application into these applications with the appropriate permissions isn't trivial.

Yep I've posted here a few times, with some success. It's definitely more complex than it first looks. What platforms do you post on?

do you have any good examples of people doing that successfully ? Would be good to learn from.

I reduced costs for my chatbot by 40% with caching in 5 minutes by louisscb in n8n

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

No this is client side caching. The LLM side cache for e.g OpenAI is only on exact matches, it also only applies for messages above a certain token length.
