What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard by Anthropic that lets AI assistants connect to external data sources and tools. Instead of copy-pasting data into chat, MCP servers provide it automatically.
How it works:
AI Assistant ←→ MCP Client ←→ MCP Server ←→ External API/Database
Key benefits:
- Universal protocol — works with Claude, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible tools
- Secure — controlled access to specific data
- Composable — connect multiple servers for complex workflows
