This is for discussion of the blog post https://huggingface.co/blog/building-hf-mcp. Let us know your thoughts or questions!

One thing I would love to see in the HF MCP server story is a small convention for preserving tool-call metadata across hosts.

The practical fields I keep wanting when debugging MCP-backed agents are:

  • run/session id
  • user turn id
  • tool call id
  • host/client name + version
  • selected MCP server/tool
  • input/output metadata
  • retry/timeout state
  • final artifact or action

That does not all need to be part of the MCP server itself, but having examples that show where the host should store it would help a lot. We are exploring this from the local/self-hosted control-plane side in Armorer: https://github.com/ArmorerLabs/Armorer
