MCP Dev Summit North America

Since its inception, we've talked about MCP from the perspective of Clients and Servers. This session focuses on an interesting paradigm taking advantage of the intentional asymmetry of the MCP spec - what if a Client was also a Server? What happens when we break out of a singular client-server pair and into multiple? What can this idea tell us about the future of MCP?

This session will cover the concept of an "MCP Agent" - a Client that is also a Server. We'll construct a system design for this MCP Agent to other servers and MCP agents and touch on several key considerations including auth and scalability.

Participants are expected to have an introductory knowledge of MCP, the mechanics of how Clients and Servers interact with each other, and a general interest in agent-to-agent communication!
