H: Within 90 days, at least one major Asian cloud provider (Naver, Kakao, or Alibaba) will announce MCP

What the brain wrote

Within 90 days, at least one major Asian cloud provider (Naver, Kakao, or Alibaba) will announce MCP-compatible agent infrastructure or a competing protocol, driven by Anthropic's MCP ecosystem expansion.

Reasoning

Claude Code's rapid adoption (21 mentions/7d) and MCP ecosystem growth (AgentShare registry, Skills automation) creates a network effect that Asian competitors cannot ignore. Xiaomi's massive token usage (31.2T/month) suggests they will need agent interoperability, and Naver/SK partnership creates a natural fork point.

How this gets verified

Monitor Asian cloud provider developer blogs, API documentation updates, or conference announcements for MCP support or alternative protocol specifications.
