Only ~56% of MCP Servers Provide Instructions, OpenAI Data Shows
bibryam · x · 2026-10-23
From bibryam's keynote takeaways (14/16): OpenAI data shows only 56% of MCP servers provide server instructions. Use this field for shared workflow guidance—like "search before fetching"—so the model understands how your tools work together and in what sequence. A low-cost, high-return optimization for MCP server developers.
