Serving Skills Over MCP: A Decentralized Alternative to Hosted Mono-Agents
curious_vii · x · 2026-10-23
A proposed pattern for serving skills over MCP: clients update record state in MCP-mediated central systems of record after completing tasks, agent traces are compressed into proposed skill updates, and a product owner merges them so new know-how distributes across agents. The author prefers this subsidiary approach over the centralized 'hosted mono-agent' model pushed by labs like Claude's managed agents.
