What if we put MCP /in/ the CLI?

`mcpx` is a command-line interface for MCP servers. curl for MCP. The internet is debating CLI vs MCP like they're competitors. They're not!

I've blogged about the process of making this tool, and some of the design considerations here: https://www.evantahler.com/blog/post/2026-03-13-curl-for-mcp

Ha finally someone gets it.
