Discussion: MCP vs CLI - What's your take on the discussion in the AI circles? "I will not promote"

Saw an interesting discussion on r/startups about this — wanted to bring it here. **Original topic:** MCP vs CLI - What's your take on the discussion in the AI circles? "I will not promote" > Scalekit ran 75 benchmark tests and shared an MCP vs CLI report (you can Google it): **MCP costs up to 32× more tokens than CLI**, and **MCP fails 28% of the time** due to connection timeouts alone. Yep. Though the outcomes will differ tool to tool, the pattern is established as CircleCI too sha... What are your thoughts? Has anyone here dealt with MCP server? --- *Discuss more at [0n MCP](https://www.0nmcp.com) — the hub for [agentic workflow engine](https://www.0nmcp.com).*
