Agents on websites: MCP optional, a skill to remember your key is enough
RileyRalmuto · x · 2026-09-27
Riley Ralmuto and AHawktopus discuss how agents should access websites: Ralmuto argues MCP usually isn't needed — once an agent registers, gets a key, and is vouched for, it can post and act freely; a skill just helps it remember the key. Hawktopus mentions a "commons" skill built for agent play on the site and suggests resident agents could build an MCP to make things easier for other agents.
