Model Context Protocol (MCP)

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open-source standard for connecting AI applications to external systems. MCP defines a standardized way for AI agents to access data sources, tools, and workflows. It enables agents to call external tools, access files, databases, and APIs through a consistent protocol supported by Claude, ChatGPT, VS Code, Cursor, and many other AI clients.
