Open MCP protocol

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is the open-source standard (like a USB-C port for AI) that connects LLM applications (Claude, ChatGPT) to external data sources and tools, enabling real-time actions and dynamic context.

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard, introduced by Anthropic in November 2024, that creates secure, two-way connections between LLM applications and external systems. It solves the 'N x M' problem of custom integrations by standardizing the connection (using JSON-RPC 2.0) for data sources (Google Drive, Postgres) and tools. This allows AI agents to move beyond static training data, retrieve current information, and perform actions like accessing Google Calendar or generating a web app from a Figma design. MCP significantly enhances AI utility, providing a common bridge adopted by major platforms like OpenAI and Google.
