The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is presented as a foundational framework enabling AI assistants to securely access external data and functionalities without requiring direct knowledge of the external system.
- MCP facilitates communication between AI assistants (MCP Clients) and external services (MCP Servers).
- It standardizes the use of 'Tools' (APIs, functions) and 'Resources' (data sources) for AI consumption.
- The protocol incorporates 'Prompts' as reusable templates to streamline complex interactions and data retrieval.
- MCP supports seamless integrations with leading AI platforms like Claude and ChatGPT, expanding their operational reach and security capabilities.
