**Welcome to the MCP Agent Silsila Series**

​Every three weeks, we host live sessions with experts to explore real-world applications of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), feature community projects, and showcase tools and agents pushing MCP to the next level.

​**This session’s theme: Optimizing MCP for Agents**

​We’ll dive into what it takes to build high-performing, production-grade MCP servers. Topics include:

- ​Key components of deploying MCP services in production
- ​Building MCP servers that serve millions
- ​The role of the MCP registry and supporting infrastructure
- ​Designing and optimizing MCP servers for agent use

​**Featured Speakers:**

- ​**[Sam Morrow](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sammorrow/)** – *Senior Software Engineer at **[GitHub](https://github.com/)*

  - ​Leading development on GitHub’s MCP server
- ​**[Tobin South](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tobinsouth/)** – *Secure AI Agents & MCP at **[WorkOS](https://www.workos.com/)*

  - ​Tobin leads the effort to make enterprise-ready agent tools with MCP at WorkOS

​**About the Host:**

​This session is hosted by **Sarmad Qadri**, CEO of LastMile AI and creator of mcp-agent, a simple, composable framework for building agents using Model Context Protocol (MCP).

​“Silsila” (سلسلہ) means *chain of events* in Urdu. We thought it was a fitting name for a gathering of builders, researchers, and developers working on modular, tool-using, agentic systems powered by MCP. (It was also the name we considered before settling on mcp-agent.)
