How does MCP differ from Skills?
1 comments

From use case point of view

skills are unstructured. MCP is structured.

You don't want stripe skill. You want stripe MCP of CLI to interact with. When stripe does an update you want to have it.

I didn't go into technical details or anything. Just laid the most important use case that skills cannot be sufficient
