Hi everyone,
I came across the new Laravel MCP package (docs here ) and I’m curious about its practical applications. From what I understand, MCP (Model Context Protocol) is designed to expose tools and resources that external clients (like editors, apps, or agents) can interact with.
A couple of questions I’d love to get insights on:
Use Cases
What real-world scenarios have you seen or can you imagine using Laravel MCP for?
For example, would it make sense for reporting dashboards, user management, queue/job monitoring, or developer productivity tools (like wrapping Artisan commands)?
Connecting with AI Agents
One exciting idea I have is linking Laravel MCP with AI agents (like ChatGPT or other MCP-compatible tools).
Has anyone tried exposing their Laravel app’s business logic (e.g., generating reports, fetching users, managing workflows) so an AI agent can call those MCP tools directly?
How would authentication/security be handled in that case?
I’d love to hear how others are experimenting with this or what you see as the most promising directions for Laravel MCP.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
