UnverifiedUsing off-the-shelf MCP servers can avoid the large amount of fragile, hard-to-maintain boilerplate code in self-built solutions, saving hours of repetitive work.79% similarUnverifiedWhen there is a need to connect to external systems or data sources and the intent is for reuse across multiple projects, priority should be given to encapsulating them as MCP Servers; when there is a need to organize complete business processes integrating multiple steps, consider using Skills for encapsulation.73% similarUnverifiedAt the tool layer, using large models with Function Calling or the MCP protocol to handle complex requests can only serve as a fallback and cannot carry the main traffic; otherwise, costs will severely overrun as user volume grows.73% similarVerifiedWhen connecting to multiple MCP servers simultaneously, tool descriptions alone can consume thousands or even tens of thousands of tokens.73% similarUnverifiedMCP服务器水平扩展的核心挑战是初始化请求和后续请求需要路由到同一服务器实例73% similar
