I think with AI tools you can pretty confidently build out an MCP server for your existing website. I plan to have good LLM docs for this very purpose.
For react in particular, lots of the form ecosystem (react hook form) can be directly ported to MCP tools. I am currently working on a zero config react hook form integration.
But yes, MCP-B is more "work" than having the agent use the website like a user. The admission here is that it's not looking like models will be able to reliably do browser automation like humans for a while. Thus, we need to make an effort to build out better tooling for them (at least in the short term)
