Thank you, I was going to say something like this. I've been reading all the comments here and thinking, "do ChatGPT/LeChat/etc even allow running CLIs from their web or mobile interfaces?".
- jngiam1 7mo agoExactly. and even if so, how are you going to safe guard tool access? Imagine your favorite email provider has a CLI for reading and sending email - you're cool with the agent reading, but not sending. What are you going to do? Make 2 API keys? Make N API keys for each possible tool configuration you care about? MCPs make this problem simple and easy to solve. CLIs don't. I don't think OpenClaw will last that long without security solved well - and MCPs seem to be obvious solution, but actively rejected by that community.
- butcloudagent 7mo agoSupposedly, you make a Skill for it, but even that is out of scope for chat agents. I didn't scroll far, but I wouldn't be surprised more people in this thread have made the mistake of giving that answer.
