My reaction to this is.. really? Presumably your API and API docs have a release process. Hopefully an automated one. Why isn't the "hey Claude, update the MCP server" step a part of it?

That wouldn't solve the core issue: if Claude makes a mistake during the MCP generaration, it would poison further agentic use.

It's adding another failure point to the process for no gain.

No, because as everything which is a part of a release process, you'd have tests.
