I think that transport is a non-issue.

Whatever the transport evolves to, it is easy to create proxies that convert from one transport to another, e.g. https://github.com/punkpeye/mcp-proxy

As an example, every server that you see on Glama MCP registry today is hosted using stdio. However, the proxy makes them available over SSE, and could theoretically make them available over WS, 'streamable HTTP', etc

Glama is just one example of doing this, but I think that other registries/tools will emerge that will effectively make the transport the server chooses to implement irrelevant.



Do you think WebTransport and HTTP3 could provide better alternatives for transport?
