description: 'Get started with the Model Context Protocol (MCP)'
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol that enables seamless integration between LLM applications and external data sources and tools.
|
||||
MCP is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of it as the "Language Server Protocol for AI" - it separates the concerns of providing context from the LLM interaction itself. This separation enables:
|
||||
|
||||
## Why MCP
|
||||
- **Modularity**: Each MCP server focuses on one specific integration or capability
|
||||
- **Reusability**: The same server can be used with any MCP-compatible client
|
||||
- **Composability**: Multiple servers can be combined to create powerful workflows
|
||||
- **Standardization**: A common protocol for all integrations reduces complexity
|
||||
|
||||
MCP is a great choice for anyone building agents or complex integrations on top of LLMs. LLMs frequently need to integrate with data and tools, and MCP provides:
|
||||
- A growing list of pre-built integrations that your LLM can directly plug into.

- A growing list of pre-built integrations that your LLM can directly plug into
|
||||
- The flexibility to switch between LLM providers and vendors
|

- Best practices for securing your data within your infrastructure
