I am just wondering if MCP is just to difficult a standard for the value proposition when skills are doing so well at just using REST apis.
Yeah, I am very open to skills and REST APIs, but REST APIs have an issue where the token gets injected, and so it's not really a good auth story for everyone. I think that skills have a feedback problem: how do you refine your skill that you've shipped to your customers? The suggestion you are giving isn't great for something like the ChatGPT or Claude iOS app. Where would you even store the token in that case, for example?
