The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard designed to simplify how AI agents connect with external tools and information sources. Created by Anthropic, MCP addresses the challenge of agents being limited by their training data's knowledge cutoff. It establishes a client-server model where agents (clients) can query external services (servers) to access up-to-date information, reducing the need for custom integrations for each agent-tool combination.
