MCP

Model Context Protocol

• Hosts are LLM applications (like Claude Desktop or IDEs) that initiate connections

• Clients maintain 1:1 connections with servers, inside the host application

• Servers provide context, tools, and prompts to clients

Roadmap

• agentic messaging primitives

• HTTP-native transport unification and hardening

• agent identity / enterprise-ready security

• improved primitives

• improved SDK developer experience

Introducing the Model Context Protocol

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting AI assistants to the systems where data lives, including content repositories, business tools, and development environments. Its aim is to help frontier models produce better, more relevant responses.

Glama – MCP Hosting Platform

MCP is a wire protocol that standardizes how AI agents interact with external services, enforcing single JSON schemas and deterministic execution, while traditional APIs are documentation formats describing the chaos of HTTP endpoints where data can live in paths, headers, query params, or bodies.

MCP servers: the context-token cost, measured per server · Okane Land

We measured the tool-definition token cost of ten popular MCP servers, and when that cost hits in current Claude Code. Per-server table, keep-or-cut verdicts.
