What if the MCP needs to actually do something, like make an API call? It's nice sometimes to have those credentials out-of-band from the AI itself so it can't access them and is forced to go through the lens of tooling.

A tool has to look exactly the same to the LLM no matter if its seved from a cli or an MCP or a js function framework level tool. Credentials have to be injected in the gateway in either case.
