🔠🔠🔠 What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?


➖ MCP is an open standard developed by Anthropic that standardizes how AI applications, particularly large language models (LLMs), connect to external data sources and tools. It simplifies integrations by providing a universal protocol, like a USB-C for AI, enabling secure, scalable, and context-aware interactions without custom APIs for each tool or data source.


🟡AI assistants have entered their intern era. They'll ace any single task you throw at them—analyzing PDFs, generating SQL, cracking dad jokes about Kubernetes—but ask them to coordinate across Slack, Gmail, and Jira? Now you're debugging a Rube Goldberg machine of API keys.


🟡 Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) aims to standardize this mess. For users, it means connecting AI models to your Figma file and Linear tickets without needing a CS degree. For developers, it means fewer "why is the model just returning goat emojis" moments.
