No feed. One issue a day. Then you are done.
Weekdays — what shipped, what to skip, what it means. Two minutes on a quiet day, four on a heavy one.
Saturday — one argument, made properly. Sunday — nothing at all.
The 2026-07-28 spec drops server-side sessions: one HTTP request instead of initialising, holding an Mcp-Session-Id, then calling. No sticky routing, no session store. Simon Willison shipped three clients and servers off it in a week.4
legacy POST /mcp → initialize → Mcp-Session-Id: 8f2c…
POST /mcp + Mcp-Session-Id → tools/call
stateless POST /mcp → tools/callThe server stops holding state, which means an MCP endpoint becomes an ordinary HTTP handler: no session store, no routing the second request back to the same machine, no reason it cannot run on a serverless function. Most of the MCP is a lot of work objection from last year was this handshake.
The second-order argument is the interesting one. An agent with a shell and curl can do more than any tool server, and is far harder to secure — every capability is implicit. An MCP tool surface is enumerable, auditable, and small enough that a laptop-sized model can drive it correctly.
