I am using Windsurf and consistently running low Flex credits and was looking into MCP for local file editing.

Would be interested in hearing what you learned creating Codemcp, how you find MCP as a protocol, and something else that you found interesting doing your project.

So I have liked the Claude Pro style rate limiting over credits that refresh monthly but mostly because I only get snatches of 1-2 hours while I am on baby leave so I never actually get rate limited. As for learnings, I put a lot of them in my AI Blindspots blog, cuz I did most of codemcp's dev with LLMs

Do you think it should be possible to make some plugin for cline or roo code that would as a proxy between and Claude Pro and your mcp? This way we could avoid using Claude desktop and still code in IDE - i just find UI in Claude very fugly.
