What is MCP?
To define vaguely, MCP is a way for AI (like large language models) to connect and communicate with external data sources a...

Guys, please share your experience working with the Cursor MCP or the Windsurf MCP. Do they seem promising to you? 🤔
MCP got viral too fast, such excellent use case. I can't imagine how crazy coding will be in 2026.
The whole AI thing is moving way too fast. The first time I learned about MCP, I was shocked as hell. It really felt like it defied everything I knew about what AIs were capable of doing.
BTW, thanks for checking, Anmol! 🙌
I prefer Windsurf more, not just because it's $5 less, but because it's more intuitive to me and feels no different from VS Code. I'm not sure how the default model compares, but both IDEs' best model is Claude 3.5/7, so if the default model can't compete, it doesn't make any difference.
Yeah, Windsurf is a solid choice @warren_dixon_nv. If you use the paid models, it should not really make much of a difference.
I'm just so sick of this whole AI thing now! 😣
I feel you, @aavash_parajuli_72, buddy. Every day, something new pops up. 😂
I'm kind of confused, Isn't this supposed to be exactly what AI agents are? What's the difference here
@bh4skar, think of MCP like this: MCP is like the rules for how phones connect to apps and the internet, but an AI Agent is the complete smartphone that uses those connections to help you do what you want.
MCP is a protocol which is used for AI agents to communicate. So can't really confuse between these two.
Good share! I'm loving MCP. I am currently using Cursor after VScode. Didn't know Windsurf is also available. It also looks similar to VScode. is it also fork?
Yeah, both Cursor and Windsurf are forks of VS Code. But plain Windsurf looks more like VS Codey than the default Cursor.
Good article. And I think you Conclusion is correct. The theoretical possibilities seems to be endless. Let's see how this trend evolves.
Yeah, agree. Can't make a final decision just yet, but MCP overall seems a lot more promising to me as well.
Thanking for checking, @benny00100 ✌️
I am not using this unless it matures. This is just a fuss for me until then. But this is such a well-demoed piece. Thank you, Shrijal, as always. 😊
Fair enough. Thank you, Lara, for checking out! ✌️
How do you come up with this ideas? What is Linear then same as Github issues?
They are somewhat similar, in that they are used for issue tracking.
Did you guys see the LastMile MCP HN post?
Hey Hanieh, thank you for mentioning the LastMile MCP. I haven't checked it out yet, but I’ll try it soon. :D
nice work
Thank you, @mt-manager :D
