Why MCP? Why API-first and OpenAPI Matter
info
API-first design and MCP reduces integration pain and future-proofs your stack.
Why Choose Headless API for MCP?
- Interoperability: APIs and context models are standardized, making integration easy
- Rapid iteration: Update your OpenAPI spec and ship new features fast
- Context management: Built-in support for memory, personalization, and orchestration
- Future-proof: Build on widely adopted standards, ensuring compatibility with existing tools and ecosystems while avoiding reliance on proprietary solutions
Example: Integration Without MCP
"We spent time integrating with a partner because we had to build custom connectors. With MCP and OpenAPI, this pain disappears."
Best Practices
- Always update your OpenAPI spec before making code changes, code to the spec, not the implementation
- Use context to enable smarter, more adaptive workflows
