Message brokers and MCP - Just another protocol or more?
summary
Claim: running MCP over AMQP turns MCP into a production-ready, scalable agent bus. The open source MCP AMQP transport provides a TypeScript SDK, stdio↔AMQP adapters and an interceptor SDK that logs to OpenSearch, enforces safety rules, and implements DLQ and flow control. Works with RabbitMQ/ActiveMQ today using AMQP 0‑9‑1 with AMQP 1.0 planned. Demo shows natural‑language broker admin, durable messaging, horizontal scaling by adding servers to a routing key, and real‑time analytics and safety enforcement.
