Model Context Protocol
Model Context Protocol is an open standard for connecting AI applications to external data and tools.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting AI applications to external data and tools. Introduced by Anthropic in 2024, it differs from a single service's API or a model's own tool-calling feature in that it defines a common way for many AI applications and services to connect.
An MCP-enabled application can use tools and resources exposed by MCP servers through a common interface. Rather than replacing each service's API, the protocol standardizes how those capabilities are made available to AI applications.
