And it’s comically unreliable.How AI agents interact with websites today vs. with WebMCP.WebMCP changes that.Without WebMCP: An AI agent crawls your page, guesses which input fields need what data, hopes the form accepts its input, and crosses its fingers.With WebMCP: Your website says “Here’s a function called searchFlights.
