Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes LLM tool interaction

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has been introduced to standardize how large language models (LLMs) interact with external tools and data sources. This protocol essentially creates an API layer that bridges LLMs with the real world, enabling more seamless integration. However, the development also raises security concerns, as new protocols can introduce new attack surfaces, and the implications of models autonomously calling tools are still under investigation.
