Do you know that most MCP servers are Open Source and can be run locally?

It's also trivial to code them. Literally a Python function + some boilerplate.






I was sort of surprised to see MCP become a buzz word because we’ve been building these kinds of systems with duck tape and chewing gum for ages. Standardization is nice though. My advice is just ask your LLM nicely, and you should be safe :)
