Lars Jansen(@oldstackjournal):One thing MCP work has hammered home for me: “The server is healthy” tells you surprisingly little. Server can be up. Auth can work. API can return the right version. And the AI can STILL be operating from an old tool definition. Distributed systems were apparently not complicated enough, so now the AI can have an outdated copy of what the server can do😂
