As far as what I'm focusing on this weekend:

1. Right now, working on standing up an MCP server in Java. Not using the Spring Boot support at the moment, but rather setting up embedded Tomcat and doing it the more "low level" way just for didactic purposes. I'm sure I'll use Spring Boot once I get deeper into all of this.

2. Plowing through the "AI Agents in Action" book. I'm just wrapping up the section on AutoGen and about to move into crew.ai stuff.

3. Reading a book on Software Product Line Engineering.

4. I have an older project that's Grails based that I let linger without any attention for a really long time. I'm working on updating it to run on the latest Grails and Java versions and also writing some automated smoke tests.
