## Adding MCP support to your application
If you've added MCP support to your application, we encourage you to submit a pull request to add it to this list. MCP integration can provide your users with powerful contextual AI capabilities and make your application part of the growing MCP ecosystem.
Benefits of adding MCP support:
- Enable users to bring their own context and tools
- Join a growing ecosystem of interoperable AI applications
- Provide users with flexible integration options
- Support local-first AI workflows
To get started with implementing MCP in your application, check out our [Python](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk) or [TypeScript SDK Documentation](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/typescript-sdk)
## Updates and corrections
This list is maintained by the community. If you notice any inaccuracies or would like to update information about MCP support in your application, please submit a pull request or [open an issue in our documentation repository](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/docs/issues).
