How does this compare to Adobe’s official MCP server announced at Summit 2026?
Adobe’s first-party MCP connector lands in H2 2026 (no firm GA date as of May 2026 publication). Once it ships, it will: (a) only work on Adobe Commerce, not Open Source; (b) expose a vendor-curated tool set, not your custom tools; (c) integrate with Adobe Experience Cloud auth. Your DIY build wins on three axes: portability (Open Source compatibility), tool customisation (add your ERP / WMS / PIM tools alongside the Magento ones), and cost (no Adobe MCP licence fee). Plan for both: ship the DIY server now to capture the value, then either run it alongside the Adobe connector or migrate the LLM-facing surface when Adobe’s offering matures and your stack tilts more enterprise.
