Kotlin to see increased adoption in AI tooling integration via MCP
Given Kotlin's role in developing custom MCP servers for Claude Code, and the rapid adoption of MCP, it's likely Kotlin will see increased usage specifically for integrating AI models with diverse application stacks and workflows. This trend suggests a growing niche for Kotlin within the AI tooling ecosystem beyond traditional app development.
Kotlin's suitability for AI development may be underestimated due to ecosystem friction
While Python and JS/TS are highlighted for AI, the evidence of custom tooling for Kotlin suggests developers are finding ways to overcome potential friction. This implies that Kotlin might be more capable for AI development than initially assumed, especially in contexts where its existing ecosystem (e.g., Android) is a priority, and the community is willing to build bridges.
Kotlin community actively developing custom tooling for AI code generation issues
The recent creation of a custom skill kit to fix AI-generated Kotlin code, and another for managing Kotlin's context parameters (a feature nearing stability), indicates a proactive community addressing AI-specific challenges. This suggests that while AI tools may generate code, the Kotlin community is invested in ensuring its quality and usability.
