Resumen del Artículo
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard framework enabling AI models, such as Anthropic's Claude, to request and utilize external tools and information from their environment.
- MCP clients formulate structured requests (ToolUse, ToolResult, Data) for specific actions or information from MCP servers.
- MCP servers execute these requests, which can involve API calls, database interactions, or complex computations, returning results to the AI client.
- The protocol establishes a clear separation between AI intent and tool execution, enhancing safety, reliability, and the overall capabilities of AI assistants.
- MCP facilitates critical use cases, including real-time data access, complex computations, and seamless integration with various external systems.
