UTCP is a rule-based deterministic protocol for tool calling. No AI here. Agents can use the protocol, but its there to handle the stuff the AI shouldn't need to see.
> designing a truly universal description language for all possible service endpoint types and protocols is a hard (arguably impossible) problem Fair enough, but when restricting yourself to the problem of tool calling,…
Agreed! Right now, there's only one way to do tool calling, and that's MCP. I'm not happy with MCP, so I want alternatives so in the end we can all choose or create the best option. We're talking about the…
Right now theres is only one option available for people creating agents, that lets the users of those agents add capabilities for the agents through tools. Its MCP. And to be honest, its not great, because its very…
It's not about latency. It's about security and rebuilding existing infrastructure. There are plenty of communication protocols to get anything you can imagine done on the internet. We should use those and write our…
Funnily enough, thats exactly what UTCP is. Its just a way to let your AI leverage existing APIs instead of doing any wrapper protocols (like MCP) for the tool call. The protocol is only for discovery. It gets out of…
Hi thanks for sharing this! I'm the creator of the protocol. First of all this protocol is made as a completely open-source and community driven alternative to MCP. We're actively looking for contributors and general…
