The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a new open standard designed to enable AI assistants, particularly Anthropic's Claude, to interact with external tools and systems. MCP allows AI models to access real-time information, perform actions, and leverage specialized functionalities beyond their pre-trained knowledge.
- MCP comprises two main components: MCP Clients (AI assistants) and MCP Servers (external tools/APIs).
- It facilitates the secure and structured exchange of requests and responses between AI and external resources, expanding the AI's utility.
- The protocol addresses the limitations of AI models by providing a standardized method for tool use and dynamic information retrieval.
- MCP aims to enhance AI assistant capabilities, moving them towards more versatile and practical applications in various domains.
