Was by far the most useful information about OIDC I could find when I was implementing an integration.

I haven't seen the OP yet...are you saying the OP is not worth it and recommending these other links?

Does anyone use MCP within their product, or is the MCP ecosystem entirely focused on enabling new workflows within an existing chat/agent framework (a la Cursor or Claude code)?

Assuming the latter, are there any viable non-developer MCP clients?

manojlds · 8 days ago

Claude.ai and Claude Desktop are the main non developer MCP clients.

ChatGPT has limited MCP support as of now (read only use cases with deep research) but the expectation is that full MCP support might be dropping soon.

A very similar "how to guide" can be found here https://ampcode.com/how-to-build-an-agent written by Thorsten Ball. In general Amp is quite interesting - obviously no hidden gem anymore ;-) but great to see more tooling around agentic coding being published. Also, because similar agentic-approaches will be part of (certain/many?) software suits in the future.

I found this post very helpful to getting started with agentic systems, what other posts do others recommend?

I think Cursor tab-completion is entirely in-house, right? That feature on its own is worth at least $5/month, it's super well done.

manojlds · 22 days ago

And dare I say their only remaining moat.

I don't know, it seems like I'm the minority but I like Cursor. I think it adds value beyond the terminal style editors. Yes it relies on the Claude model but I get a lot of value from the visual component, history, auto-complete, etc.

Couldn't you make the same argument around something like S3? How many companies are basically S3 wrappers? Or companies that use general AWS infra and make it slightly better. There could still be a market for add on products. Why would Claude or OpenAI want the headache of managing an IDE? They're okay giving up some margin there.

I agree there is a huge rush of "AI wrapper" companies, whose moat is basically prompt engineering. Like a "AI buddy" or whatever. Those are all going to zero IMO. But things like Cursor have a future. Maybe not at the hyped valuation but long term something like this will exist

Claude Code with current IDE integration is already very good. Only thing missing is completion that Cursor is pretty good at.

Just an absurd statement when DeepSeek had its moment in January.

A whole 8 months ago.

And they said "it's over" millions of times. What they mean is the exponential expectations are done.

How would I even know? I haven't seen which model of ChatGPT I'm using on the site ever since they obfuscated that information at some point.

What do you mean? It's front and center

Not sure what is going on, but I see a lot of 1-karma-point HN users hyping this.

manojlds · a month ago

Yeah I don't even see the point of this. There's enough MCP clients now and the whole point of MCP is to make tools available to any LLM that can use tools.

Why do they use Europe and EU interchangeably.
