A stock photo of a microphone at a conference. The microphone has a silver metallic mesh cover and is attached to a podium via an adjustable stand. The microphone is facing the camera in the immediate foreground, and a blurred background of an audience seated at wooden tables in a large, well-lit room can be seen.

Code Mode: the better way to use MCP It turns out we've all been using MCP wrong. Most agents today use MCP by exposing the

@cloudflare.social has code mode which is similar: blog.cloudflare.com/code-mode/

This is a mix of using mcp tools and then the agent writing its own code to get you the answer. The speed up is achieved by giving the agent a sandbox to execute that code, instead of the requirement of spinning up a container to run that code.

The agent then uses the mcp to get search for bike rides from 2025. It then writes a script to run, along with the data and passes it to a method that runs monty to then run that code and return the result or raise an exception.

Exploring @pydantic.dev monty with my strava mcp server. I understand the value of having a readily available code runner for the agent. Since agents are trained to generate code and interpret output, they can answer questions like - "what was my highest speed in cycling in 2025? which ride?"

Image with PyOhio 2025 Logo on the left, with text above and to the right saying, "PyOhio is in 10 Days". The PyOhio 2025 Logo has A snake that has swallowed the state of Ohio looking off to the left with its tongue out. The body of the snake is zig-zagging folded over itself a couple of times. On the middle, righthand side of the snake is the year, 2025, and on the bottom lefthand side is PyOhio. The artists signature, JMW, is in small lettering on the right hand side of the snake, a bit higher up than the word "PyOhio" on the logo.

Datasette ecosystem poster for PyCon US In addition to [my workshop the other day](https://simonwillison.net/2025/May/15/building-on-llms/) I'm also participating in the [poster session](https://us.pycon.org/2025/schedule/posters/list/) at ...

If you're at #PyConUS I would LOVE to talk to you about my various projects - I'll be stood next to my poster in Hall A tomorrow from 10am to 1pm - it's the one with the "teenage bedroom" aesthetic, I decided to fill all available space with photos of things I like simonwillison.net/2025/May/17/...

The word β€œlogin” comes from throwing a log attached to a rope with knots overboard a ship to see how many knots go by over time (see also, knots as speed). You’d then put that info in the β€œlog book.” You’d β€œlog in” on a regular basis. This wasn’t from 1959, it was likely from 1689! Etymology baby!

My suggestion related to this morning's #PyConUS diversity panel: A simple way to help with inclusion is to sit at lunch with someone who doesn't seem like you, and introduce yourself. It's easy, it's free, and those small connections grow and welcome people in.
