I'm very bullish on MCP (or at least MCP "like" implementations), as they solve a lot of problems for non-devs as they're much easier and safer to add into ChatGPT, Claude and other desktop + web apps.

They provide a set of tools and a context when to use those tools (much like a packaged version of a CLI+API and a skill) which makes them more discoverable than other options.

I've got a few folks using my open source data storage MCP - https://github.com/ExpeditedProjects/hutchdb - now and it makes a lot more sense than any other implementation for what they're doing
