🌗 @chrlschn - MCP 已死；MCP 萬歲！
➤ 穿透 AI 炒作循環，重新審視 Agentic 工程的本質
✤ https://chrlschn.dev/blog/2026/03/mcp-is-dead-long-live-mcp/
本文剖析了 AI 業界對「模型上下文協議」（MCP）與 CLI（命令列介面）工具之間迅速轉變的觀點。作者指出，這場論戰多半由網紅驅動，缺乏技術深度。雖然使用 CLI 確實能節省 Token，但針對客製化工具，其本質與 MCP 的結構化要求並無二致。對於企業級應用而言，MCP 不僅僅是 API 的封裝，它在權限控管、審計與標準化流程上具備不可替代的價值。作者呼籲工程師應冷靜看待技術炒作，根據實際需求選擇架構，而非隨波逐流。
+ 說得太好了。大家總是看到「節省 Token」就一窩蜂轉向新工具，卻沒考慮到企業級應用中，這些結構化定義帶來的可維護性纔是長期效益的關鍵。
+ 確實，CLI 對於原生訓練資料集裡的工具（如 git, curl）很有用，但一旦進入業務邏輯複雜的客製化場景，沒有結

My #opensource RunJS #MCP server is now equipped with a #JavaScript `fetch` analogue (written in #dotnet and #csharp) and a secrets manager to let your #LLM securely generate and execute JS to access remote APIs!

I also added a #Vue front-end to make it easy to test and try it out yourself!

Hacked this together last night: a quick and dirty C# #MCP server that let's #LLMs generate and execute #JavaScript safely in .NET. Use it to give your #LLM super powers! 🚀

Is this ironic? I went to share an essay to #hackernews to find that someone else had already done so. However, it was flagged as "Likely AI-Generated"!

Surprising because my current blog is entirely in GitHub with a full commit history, I've kept a blog since 2005 (https://charliedigital.com/) with the same style of writing, and of course, I also have a few high profile Medium articles.

It is, of course, the truth that #AI has somehow been influenced to some tiny extent by MY writing instead!

WIP guide for dev teams feeling burnout from #typescript, #javascript, and #nodejs . #dotnet and #csharp are a great alternative given how similar the #programming languages are (of course, TypeScript and C# being from the same designer at Microsoft!). Give C# and .NET a look if you're team is considering alternative to Node.js on the backend!

TypeScript is Like C#

A guide for backend devs. If you already know TypeScript, then learning C# is easy! This guide walks you through the similarities (and differences) between TypeScript and C#

#AI 's impact on how teams select for #software engineers largely hasn't been translated to changes in the #interview and #hiring process. It's probably time for a rethinking of things like the take home project when those are easily solved by#coding copilots. It might make more sense to simply skip right to the #code review instead of wasting a cycle with the the project: https://coderev.app/blog/improving-your-interview-process-buy-the-pecans-skip-the-trail-mix

Improving Your Interview Process: Buy the Pecans; Skip the Trail Mix

Interview processes have become increasingly long and convoluted. Is it possible to short circuit the extraneous effort and condense the process without sacrificing on selection for quality and talent?

A side-effect of having USDS listed in my LinkedIn bio right now is journalists keep asking me to talk with them. I just heard from a reporter at #WashingtonPost. This is what I told him.

I've been working on 3 new features for CodeRev.app to help teams that want to easily incorporate #code reviews into the #tech #interview and #hiring process with less friction. Check out this 60 second intro! With #AI generated code becoming a mainstream tool in #programming, more teams should consider code reviews!

Charles Chen Feb 3, 2025

Two trending threads on #hackernews on #AI and #interviews motivated me to make a quick intro video for CodeRev.app. It's a free, lightweight, #opensource tool to incorporate code reviews into interviews. With AI #programming assistants becoming more mainstream, it might be time to ditch #leetcode and focus on how well candidates can quickly assess the quality and correctness of AI generated code.

CodeRev.app - Code Review as Interview

CodeRev is a lightweight tool to help you organize and conduct technical interviews using code reviews rather than leetcode.
