What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a new protocol designed to connect your LLM and AI Agents to your infrastructure. It helps you trigger real actions in your AI agents, enabling them to interact with your data and systems seamlessly.

This powerful protocol bridges the gap between AI models and real-world applications, allowing your agents to perform meaningful tasks beyond simple text generation.

This video explains what MCP is and shows you how to build your first server
