When You Don???t Need MCP: A Practical Guide for AI Developers

3+ day, 17+ hour ago   (758+ words) Most tutorials you’ll come across explain what MCP is and why you should use it. After all that explanation, it’s still hard to get an intuitive feel for the trade-offs. So today I’ll flip the question around: when do you…...
