A common question that I still see flying around is that: will skills replace MCP? I understand why people ask. Both can extend what an AI agent can do. A skill can include scripts that call APIs, while an MCP server can expose tools that call those same APIs. They can look like two ways … Continue reading MCP vs Skills

A practical roadmap to learn agentic engineering
A lot of engineers want to learn agentic engineering now. I think many of them are starting from the wrong end. They jump straight into MCP, multi-agent systems, autonomous workflows, and every shiny demo on X. It looks exciting and also feels like the future. But for most engineers, that is not the right place … Continue reading A practical roadmap to learn agentic engineering
AI Coding Agents: Skills vs Commands vs Plugins vs Hooks Explained
If you are an engineer today, the challenge is no longer whether AI can help you write code. The challenge is the flood of tools and concepts. Every few weeks, there is something new. Agents, rules, skills, sub-agents, MCP, hooks. Each introduces its own vocabulary, and most explanations jump straight into features without explaining why … Continue reading AI Coding Agents: Skills vs Commands vs Plugins vs Hooks Explained
Why does MCP matter? A Deep Dive for Engineers
Everyone's talking about MCP (Model Context Protocol) and how it's supercharging workflows in tools like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other desktop apps. And yeah, the integrations with desktop environments are cool. But honestly, MCP is way more than just these integrations for desktop applications. You’ve probably seen folks compare MCP to USB-C for AI. It’s … Continue reading Why does MCP matter? A Deep Dive for Engineers
The Turning Point in AI
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been evolving for decades, but we’ve now hit an inflection point where AI is moving from research labs into everyday tools, and everyone now talks about AI. Just as electricity transformed every industry a century ago, AI is in a position to have a similar sweeping impact. In particular, the emergence … Continue reading The Turning Point in AI
