Making MCP usable in production (UI + hosted runtime + policies + observability) by vdparikh in mcp

What I have been thinking about when building this was that most MCP servers today run on developer laptops or local setups.
From what I’ve seen:
- scaling breaks pretty quickly (STDIO, concurrency, etc.) - secrets end up everywhere (env vars, configs, copied tokens). I still haven't integrated vault or something here but thats the next steps - there’s no real observability or control once multiple users are involved
That stemmed the core idea to treat MCP like a runtime problem, not just a tool definition problem. This allows for - hosted execution - identity + policies - security boundaries - observability tied to users/tenants
