I've just done something similar with Claude Desktop and its built-in MCP servers.

The limits are still buggy responses - Claude often gets stuck in a useless loop if you overfeed it with files - and lack of consistency. Sometimes hand-holding is needed to get the result you want. And it's slow.

But when it works it's amazing. If the issues and limitations were solved, this would be a complete game changer.

We're starting to get somewhat self-generating automation and complex agenting, with access to all of the world's public APIs and search resources, controlled by natural language.

I can't see the edges of what could be possible with this. It's limited and clunky for now, but the potential is astonishing - at least as radical an invention as the web was.

I would be fine with storing the output from one run, spooling up a new one, then concatenating after multiple successive runs.
