They invented the protocol? I used Claude Desktop extensively in testing. No other local clients currently interop very well with MCP Tooling. They're more of an afterthought for other clients.

Sure, but it’s not suddenly useless to you because Anthropic restricts you. Those 10 months of building MCP servers are still of use, even if I can only imagine how frustrating losing Claude Max must be (recent x20 subscriber here)
geeunits OP
The difference is, they were being used. Now they'll only be of use further down the line, and I have to readjust my daily workflow. Just because. It's highly frustrating and makes me regret putting so much effort in embracing 'the Anthropic way' when a rug pull can come out of nowhere. I wish I'd put that effort into my own tooling instead. Just a fair warning to anyone getting comfortable.

I guess I’m just riding the wave while I can. I’d be pissed if the rug is pulled, but can’t do much more than move on.

What were you doing that got you banned?
geeunits OP
I have no idea. I haven't altered my workflow or projects.

Not even close to true - VSCode and cursor both have MCP support, and INE VSCode’s is great.

Also, I’m curious about your claim to have spent 10 months building MCP servers, as the spec has only been out since the end of November - which is ~7 months.

geeunits OP
VSCode won't iterate without constant permissions/interrupts. No thanks Cursor.

10 months must have been hyperbole but I've moved two states and a country in that time, apologies.
