I imagine the answer varies greatly but what use cases do people find for MCP over standard command line calls? The only time I use MCP is when I'm supposed to test that an MCP is working. Everything else is just incredibly clunky and ugly. For example, connecting to Linear to grab a ticket is far easier and cleaner to copy and paste the text rather than to have the agent call the MCP and look it up by ticket name.
I'm hoping I can find somebody else's MCP that could actually help me for once!
