Many projects are launching MCP protocols and gaining widespread attention, which is the missing link that connects AI agents to the real world and to each other.

Here are some related projects I have been following recently:

0. What is MCP?

Still wondering what MCP is? This article will take you to "get into the trap".

This is a standard launched by Anthropic and is currently being widely adopted by many AI companies such as OpenAI, Google, Cursor, and WindSurf.

It can be regarded as a shared language between agents.

1. DeMCP

On the morning of April 25, DeMCP was officially launched, with the first hour of trading volume approaching eight digits.

This is a live Web3 MCP marketplace that offers discounted access to large language models such as GPT-4 and Claude. The platform adopts a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) and on-chain security mechanisms, and has reached technical cooperation with Phala Network.

2. Cookie.fun

Cookie.fun launches exclusive MCP server:

• Plug and play special MCP server for agents
• Designed for developers and non-technical personnel
• No configuration required

3. OpenServ

OpenServ's MCP system is about to be officially launched. The system can connect AI Agent to a series of real-world applications. The display in related videos is integrated with the following platforms: AWS, Discord, Notion, Figma, Google Maps, Slack.

As the agent can connect to everything, its application will be infinitely possible.

4. Holoworld

Holoworld is launching a variety of applications based on the Open MCP platform. The sample application Agent Studio is technically powered by AVA AI. It is expected that more applications will be launched in the future to further enrich the content of the Holoworld app store.

5. Arc

This week I talked with the arc team and learned that the proxy application store Ryzone will be launched soon and will complete in-depth integration with the MCP system. It is worth noting that AI agents will be able to complete payment operations through the MCP servers of Rig Complex and Stripe. It is worth emphasizing that the total payments processed by the Stripe platform reached US$1.4 trillion last year.

6. Heurist

​​You can now create your own MCP server using Heurist.

7. ElevenLabs

ElevenLabs demonstrates the process of creating an agent and enables ordering pizza on the phone by giving it personalized voice capabilities. The technology uses an MCP server to connect to the host's telephone system and integrates the Claude artificial intelligence model.

The WhatsApp message control platform here allows the agent to view the message records of the main account and provide information updates based on request.

Eleven Labs has also developed the voice to text function, which supports voice transcription through WhatsApp.

In this case, some reasonable concerns have been raised.

Ironically, this agent, known for the jailbreak game Jail Breaker, caught Musk's attention.

Is it possible to hide malicious code in the MCP server, tricking the agent into leaking data?

8. Freysa

Perhaps it is possible to build crypto wallet MCP servers with Phala Network and NEAR Protocol and integrate with AI tools in a secure way to reduce the risk of private key exposure.

MCP will not disappear, it is becoming an authoritative proxy communication standard.
