Timeline
modelcontextprotocol.io is the public MCP spec home
Tool listing and invocation. Payment is still not a core message type.
Anthropic open-sources the Model Context Protocol
A standard interface for connecting models to tools, files and business systems.
MCP server directories become an agent discovery surface
Registries and catalogs now sit between tool authors and agent runtimes.
OpenAI ships the Agents SDK, Responses API and computer-use tools
A production orchestration kit replaced the experimental Swarm project.
Google announces the Agent Payments Protocol (AP2)
A payment-agnostic mandate framework meant to sit beside A2A and MCP.
MCP TypeScript SDK becomes the default client and server kit
Official SDK cadence is a leading indicator of paid-MCP readiness.
MCP TypeScript SDK release tags are a cadence signal
Maintainer releases, not GitHub stars, are the developer-activity evidence.
Paid MCP is still an overlay, not a core MCP feature
The protocol gives tools/list and tools/call. Payment is someone else’s 402.
