What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
Zero-origin-change edge injection via HTMLRewriter is a strong structural fit for pv's all-Cloudflare stack and agent-audience posture, but the browser standard it depends on is single-browser/experimental-flag-only, the only shipped tool packs are client-side with unverified credentials, and public reaction is still near-zero (1-2 HN points, 0 comments) eleven days post-launch — too early to commit a production surface.
Next
Re-evaluate once WebMCP ships outside an experimental Chrome-only flag (real multi-browser reach) and Cloudflare adds an edge-worker-backed tool pack beyond pure client-side execution; consider a low-risk pilot exposing a read-only MCP tool pack on pv itself once those two gates clear.
