> MCP sucks because it has to be connected to a desktop client.
No, it doesn't need to be connected to a desktop client. It is true that the original use was for connecting local tools over stdio to a desktop client, and it is currently more supported in desktop clients than others, but it now includes remote support and, e.g., ChatGPT Deep Research has support for remote MCP, but only for servers with a very specific shape.
