Everyone's talking about MCP like it's the missing link for AI tooling.

I don't think it is. At least, not yet.

Useful? Sure.

Production-ready? Not even close.

MCP introduces a new layer you now have to secure, monitor, and debug. It relies on stateful connections, breaks serverless patterns, and opens up some scary security holes if you're not careful.

Don't fall for the "spec equals maturity" trap. It's okay to wait.
