What bothers me about MCP is that there is not even a standard way to describe an entire MCP server in a single JSON file. Like OpenAPI for REST. This makes exchanging metadata and building catalogs unnecessarily unstandardized.

The article also mentioned that OpenAPI is too verbose: I totally see that, but you could optimize this by stripping an OpenAPI file down to the basics that you need for LLM use, maybe even using the Overlay spec. Or you convert your OpenAPI files to the https://www.utcp.io format that pylotlight mentioned.

Some "curation" of what's really relevant for AI consumption may be a helpful anyway, as too many tools will also lead to problems in picking the right ones.
