Lots of GraphQL talk on the channel this week!

[Is MCP better with GraphQL?](#is-mcp-better-with-graphql)

I think so. Here are six reasons why.

[Robert Balicki on Isograph, agent orchestration, GraphQL, and more](#robert-balicki-on-isograph-agent-orchestration-graphql-and-more)

Robert Balicki is prolific. I loved hearing his deep dive on fragments, the right way to build full-stack apps with Isograph, and how to orchestrate agents with his Barnum framework.

[HTTP QUERY is coming to GraphQL](#http-query-is-coming-to-graphql)

GraphQL-Over-HTTP has a new open PR that specifies how to use the new QUERY verb in HTTP for GraphQL queries. That's good news!

[Rolling your own GraphQL client?](#rolling-your-own-graphql-client)

Probably a bad idea. I've seen folks try to do it, and the benefits are almost always outweighed by the costs.
