The Dual Protocol Manifesto

We believe in a web that serves all intelligence.

GO AWAY SKILLS. GO AWAY MCP. WE LIKE CLI.

• Skills? → Vendor lock-in, complex schemas, approval queues
• MCP? → Protocol overhead, server setup, configuration hell
• CLI? → Just works. stdin/stdout. Every agent understands.

A worldbook is just a text file that tells us how to use your service. No SDK. No protocol. No ceremony. Just instructions.
