Letta: Letta is a framework for creating LLM services with memory

I didn't find any thing on Letta and MCP. Any thoughts on integrating MCP into the platform?

Totally serious question: is MCP basically an in-joke right now? I mean, I know what it is. I just don’t know why I’m seeing it everywhere in the last 3 days?

Probably people are excited about the prospect of having this problem be solved so that we can focus more on getting the agents to work rather than all be reimplementing the same data fetchers/parsers etc.

Sure, but I mean why so suddenly? This has been out a while...

I think it’s just reached critical mass (and has been picked up by the hype peddlers). It’s been gaining momentum for months.

Interesting question, I personally first saw it because jetbrains now has a plugin for it on all their IDEs.

Maybe this will help you figure it out:

Thank you for the mind-blowing 2 hr rabbit hole. I'm going to use this in my personal helper bot.

I'm also not really sure what's going on with the hype wave atm (people like having things to hype?) since MCP has also been around for a bit, seems like a bit of a meme.

IMO, the main value (as an agent / AI developer) that you get from MCP is another style of tool repository. Similar to how it's nice to have pre-made tools (eg Composio), MCP servers are another repo of tools to pull from (you just need to add MCP client functionality to your agent loop). So if a ton of energy is going into building MCP servers, might as well add MCP client support so that you can take advantage of the additional tools.

Tangential cultural reference ...

  The Master Control Program (MCP) ... is the main digital antagonist of the first Tron film.

We're working on it, I'm hoping we can get an integration in sometime next week! If you want to track progress on it would recommend joining our Discord.

To clarify - by "it", I mean making Letta agents an MCP client, so that you can easily connect to MCP servers as tools (not the other way around, where Letta itself is an MCP server - if you want that, someone in the community already made one: https://github.com/oculairmedia/Letta-MCP-server)
