Restate Comparison
How do Catalyst and Restate handle tool invocation and MCP integration for agents?
Catalyst provides native MCP tool authorization and policy enforcement, allowing you to define which tools agents can call and under what conditions. As of the verification date, public documentation for Restate does not list built-in MCP support; confirm with the vendor before assuming either position. For agent systems that rely on MCP for tool access, Catalyst offers a more integrated and policy-driven approach, reducing custom code.
