Sorry MCP, you are not as simple as CLI/skill/combination, and no, you are not more secure just because you are buried under 3 level of spaghetti. There are no reason for you to exist, just like Copilot. I don't just wish, but know you'll go into obscurity like IE6.

i use mcp for security. you can have an airgapped agent that can still call online tools. for example, web search.
however it can't get infected because there is no internet access.
the worst you can do is put your secrets in the web search box
