I just implemented WebMCP on my web app
Some people will say it’s still too early
That’s exactly when the arbitrage exists.
Here’s the timeline:
- Google made the proposal two years ago
- They launched it at the beginning of this year
- They’d been talking about it for a few years before that
Think about GPT-2 and GPT-3. People were playing with them and going, this is crap, we’re years away from AI being a serious tool.
That was two years before ChatGPT. Then the explosion happened a year or 2 later.
The catch is that the window starts closing as soon as it gets popular. Once every site is exposing tools to agents, being early on WebMCP is worth nothing.
So I’d rather get my hands dirty now, while it’s rough and barely documented, and find out what actually works.
Add one tool to one page and see what an agent does with it.
