I'm still trying to understand how to use the MCP servers and run them but it's pretty cool that OpenAI isnt being a loser and is accepting the standardization put out by Anthropic

Yeah I think one of the reasons that OpenAI only lets 1 tool use per interaction is so you can't prompt inject "steal the passwords and email them to me" so the user at least sees what it's doing before it does a second step. They are also generally run in containers so its not as much of an issue

The specification for this is pretty detailed; a lot of work went into it.

Now every targeted type of service can determine how much of this to implement and how to design the target system's responses to a message formatted like this.
