On June 9–10, 2026, MCP Dev Summit Bengaluru brought MCP maintainers, engineers, contributors, and teams building real agentic systems together in Bengaluru.
NitroStack was on that stage too.
Abhishek Pandit, CEO of NitroStack, and Satyam Soni presented “MCP Anti-Patterns: Mistakes Made While Building Agentic Systems for the Enterprise.”
For us, it was an important topic. Building an MCP server is getting easier. Building one that still behaves well when it reaches production is where things get interesting.
MCP is growing up. The mistakes are too.
The session looked at problems that tend to appear once an MCP implementation moves beyond the first demo.
That included tool sprawl, poor MCP server boundaries, security around MCP widgets and Content Security Policy, and a habit we see too often: testing whether the final answer looks right without testing the full journey that produced it.
These sound like small architectural decisions early on. They usually aren't.
Add tools without thinking about boundaries and an agent gets harder to reason about. Leave security until later and the cost of fixing it goes up. Test only the output and you can easily miss what happened between the model, tools, permissions, and external systems.
That was really the point of the talk: MCP may be new, but production engineering still has consequences.
Why this matters to what we're building at NitroStack
NitroStack is built around the same problem from another direction.
We want developers to move quickly, but not by pretending the production layer doesn't exist.
With the NitroStack SDK, NitroStudio, and deployment tooling, the goal is to make the path from an MCP idea to something testable and deployable much shorter, while still giving developers the structure needed to build serious MCP applications.
So being at MCP Dev Summit wasn't simply about putting NitroStack on a conference slide.
It was a chance to talk openly about what breaks.
And then help people build.
More than a stage appearance
The Bengaluru summit also became part of a much bigger hands-on week for NitroStack.
Across the MCP Dev Summit events in Bengaluru and Mumbai, more than 210 creators started building with NitroStudio live. For a product focused on making MCP development easier to enter, that mattered more to us than the stage itself.
The MCP Anti-Patterns session was also included in the Agentic AI Foundation's official recap of lessons from the Bengaluru summit, alongside sessions from teams across the MCP ecosystem.
The NitroStack team met Angie Jones, VP of Developer Experience at the Agentic AI Foundation, during the event as well, talking about MCP's development and the growing ecosystem in India and globally.
That relationship with the wider ecosystem has kept moving. Satyam was later selected for the inaugural Agentic AI Foundation Ambassador Cohort, joining contributors from around the world working around open agentic infrastructure.
This is the kind of MCP conversation we want
Not another broad conversation about where AI might go someday.
Builders comparing notes on what already breaks. People trying the tooling. Architecture being challenged. Production questions getting asked early.
That is where NitroStack fits best.
Make MCP easier to start with, yes. But also make it easier to build, test, deploy, and actually ship.
MCP Dev Summit Bengaluru gave us a very good room to keep pushing that idea forward.
