MCP server builders are debating how to scope agent permissions and API keys

The author is looking for teams building MCP servers or APIs that let agents take actions such as updating data, sending messages, or triggering workflows.
The main question is how permissions are being handled today: whether teams still give agents a single API key and trust them, or whether they have built more granular controls around each agent and task. The post is also a call for teams facing this problem to test Keydris.
