Concrete platform change that removes a human-in-the-loop bottleneck for agent-driven deployments — directly applicable to agentic/MCP workflows.
Cloudflare rolled out Temporary Accounts on Workers, letting AI agents run `wrangler deploy --temporary` to get a live Worker without a pre-existing human-provisioned account.
⚠ Uncertainty: Lifespan, rate limits, and abuse/billing controls on temporary accounts aren't detailed in the excerpt seen.

Sharp, specific framing for deciding when MCP overhead (vs. a plain skill/CLI wrapper) is actually justified — directly relevant to anyone building MCP servers or agent tooling.
Sean Lynch argues MCP's core advantage over skills/CLI is isolating the auth flow outside the agent's context window, making MCP essentially an auth gateway for APIs.
⚠ Uncertainty: This is one engineer's opinion/framing relayed via a blog quote, not an empirically tested claim.
