Stop building thin MCP APIs; start building prescriptive agent tools

◆ 75RelevanceOn a story from The New Stack10h ago

Shifting decision logic from the LLM prompt to the MCP server reduces hallucinations and increases execution reliability. You should decide now whether your backend serves raw data or structured instructions for your agents.

Takeaways

  • Move "next step" logic from the LLM prompt into the MCP server response.
  • Treat MCP as a control plane rather than just a data retrieval layer.
  • Implement full-journey observability to identify where agent logic deviates from intentions.
