Anthropic's Claude Code gains custom tool integration via MCP servers

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Anthropic has introduced Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, a new way to extend Claude Code's capabilities by allowing it to directly interact with local tools and data. MCP servers act as local processes that expose functions, data sources, and prompt templates to Claude, enabling it to query internal databases, APIs, and scripts. This protocol offers a standardized plug-in interface, differentiating from the tool use API which is intended for web applications rather than personal workflows. AI

IMPACT Enables deeper integration of AI models with local data and workflows, potentially increasing productivity for developers.
