UTCP is a rule-based deterministic protocol for tool calling. No AI here. Agents can use the protocol, but its there to handle the stuff the AI shouldn't need to see.

Agreed! Right now, there's only one way to do tool calling, and that's MCP. I'm not happy with MCP, so I want alternatives so in the end we can all choose or create the best option. We're talking about the infrastructure

Hi thanks for sharing this! I'm the creator of the protocol. First of all this protocol is made as a completely open-source and community driven alternative to MCP. We're actively looking for contributors and general discussion to
