Three Gaps Between Local and Production
A local MCP Server takes one command: python server.py. Enterprise production adds three required problems:
Authentication: stdio mode has no auth — any process can connect. Production needs explicit identity verification.
Process supervision: a Python process that dies doesn't restart itself and generates no alert. Production needs a guardian and health checks.
Smooth upgrades: multiple Agent sessions may connect to the same Server simultaneously. Upgrading can't drop those connections.
