    Anyone found a good file upload solution for MCP? Or is the best practice to use HTTP to upload files outside MCP?

      I have had to hack a couple of workarounds in <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rcarmo&#x2F;memento" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;rcarmo&#x2F;memento to do uploads, and there&#x27;s a draft going around, but the general practice in enterprise MCPs seems to be to do it &quot;out of band&quot; and have MCP tools to hand-over storage handles&#x2F;URLs so the MCP server can do the imports itself &quot;safely&quot;.
