Lock-in moves to tool registries.

MCP standardization is real, but so is registry sprawl. The enterprise risk isn't picking the wrong model. It's building on a tool catalog you don't control.

Idempotent tools, retry-owning workflows.

Glue-code automation wins when MCP tools are idempotent and the workflow owns retries, not when you chain hopeful API calls and pray the agent recovers.

MCP breaks when auth and schema versioning are afterthoughts.

Model Context Protocol servers look simple in a tutorial. In enterprise they need auth boundaries, schema versioning, blast-radius limits, and observability. Otherwise they become your next outage.

Reliability lives at the tool boundary.

Agents don't fail at the model; they fail at tool calls. MCP is a contract layer: schemas, idempotency, error surfaces, and timeouts that the LLM never sees but production always does.

ADK treats agent development like software engineering. That is the entire trick.

Google's Agent Development Kit is the same framework that powers Agentspace and Gemini Enterprise, open-sourced. Here is the complete map: agents, orchestration, tools, MCP, A2A, A2UI, the dev UI, and a working enterprise build you can deploy with one call.
