AI agents like Claude Code and Cursor can interact with external services through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). One approach involves using a proxy gateway, such as PolicyLayer, to securely connect these agents to upstream MCP servers like Stripe or GitHub, preventing prompt injection risks by inspecting and filtering tool calls at the protocol level. Alternatively, developers can build custom MCP servers, like one for Confluence, which exposes specific tools for Claude Code to use, enabling automation of tasks such as publishing pages or syncing content directly from the terminal.
