The Model Context Protocol (MCP) aims to simplify AI development by standardizing how large language models (LLMs) interact with external tools and data, facilitating a transition from specialized LLM-based applications to more versatile, general-purpose AI assistants.
- MCP enables AI models to understand when to call external tools and how to interpret their outputs, abstracting away complex API integrations.
- It provides a structured format for LLMs to represent their internal state, communicate with external systems, and manage conversation history.
- Key components include context windows for holding current interactions, a universal tool specification for describing tool capabilities, and a schema for structured data exchange.
- MCP reduces the burden on developers by offering a unified approach to tool integration, promoting interoperability and accelerating the creation of advanced AI assistants.
