Transcript
This is the first big release from MCP since it was handed over to Linux. Today, we're announcing MCP apps are now live as an official MCP extension. Tools can now return interactive UI components that render directly in the conversation. Dashboards, forms, visualizations, multi-step workflows, and more. This is the first official MCP extension, and it's ready for production. Should we watch this video? Cuz I'm I've not seen this. I've just thought that looks pretty interesting. I've seen a preview of this uh with Figma. Okay. Figma MCP. Oh, okay. When it uses MCP, it pops a window open. Yeah. In like apps in chat GBT. Kind of like app, isn't it? But it's more of a it's MCP Pro rather than bespoke. Now imagine having that also on your on your smartphone in the app. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like there are so many things that are tedious to do like like uh I I don't know like with notion you can use notion on your phone but it's not really that nice. M but here you could tell it to do it and show it and maybe you interact with it. So that is potentially very powerful building on the amazing work of the MCP UI and the open air apps SDK. So it's yeah it's pretty much the same thing. Um yeah what are MCP apps? This is this is interesting cuz I was really excited by the Open AI apps but I never got around to using it. It's been a rocky road for MCPs to be honest, but we're slowly getting there. Um, I wonder how many people are using a tool search tool type of thing because again, you know, cursor, do you have any MCPs running in cursor? I tried, but then I immediately went to like build an app around it instead of using the MCP. M point is MCPs are getting there and I'm I like MCPs. I think they're they make you they can make you really really productive. This is part of a larger conversation on my show Command AI which we stream live every single week. We discuss the news and all things related to AI in the world of design and web. Catch us next week and join in the banter.
