Running 6 persistent agents on a VPS that handle business ops - not just code gen. They do market research, content creation, video scripts, knowledge management. Each agent has its own memory, tools, and instructions.
For infra specifically: agents can run shell commands, manage Docker, deploy via git. The key insight was giving them narrow permissions per role rather than full root access. The research agent can read logs but can't deploy. The content agent can write files but can't touch infra.
Biggest risk isn't agents breaking things - it's agents confidently doing the wrong thing without telling you. So every destructive action requires confirmation, and all changes go through trash instead of rm.
Haven't used MCP servers much - direct tool access through the orchestration layer turned out to be simpler and more reliable.
Got it. Is this mostly for local testing?
How are you handling deployments right now without MCP? For example, are you using the Supabase dashboard or something similar?
Definitely not a need, we agree good devops doesn't require AI.
Just curious given the increased popularity of vibecoded projects whether deployment via MCPs is becoming a thing.

I give them full access. Ising mostly skills, havent really found a need a for mcp yet

Why do they need to? This is not how devops typically works when done well
Just have them help with IaC

Absolutely not.
Gods no.
Hahahahahaah fair.
