I still dont fully understand the point of MCP servers. What do they provide that a skill doesnt? Maybe I've just used too many poorly written ones.
Is there some sort of tool that can be expressed as an MCP and but not as an API or CLI command? Obviously we shouldnt map existing apis to MCP tools, but why would I used an MCP over just writing a new "agentic ready" api route?
