The most concerning thing here is the temperature problem. If your harness isn't providing deterministic output at a temperature setting of 0.0, it is broken.

Honestly, if you compare Tim's pre-GPT writing style, to his current stylometrics, you'll see a remarkably delta. It's as if he suddenly decided to change his established writing style and voice right when LLMs become widely available.

This is the right framing. The chain policy problem is what happens when you ask the registry to be the entitlement layer.

Here's a longer piece on why the trust boundary has to live at the runtime level, not the interface level, and what that means for MCP's actual job: https://forestmars.substack.com/p/twilight-of-the-mcp-idols
