Overview
- MCP is presented as an open protocol that lets AI systems access tools, data, and prompts via standardized servers rather than bespoke plugins.
- The latest reports highlight cross‑model compatibility, with a single MCP server working across assistants like Claude, GPT, and enterprise orchestration platforms.
- Developer guidance details a Host–Client–Server design in which servers expose model‑friendly capabilities as tools, resources, and reusable prompts.
- An MCP Registry functions as a directory for discovering servers and metadata, with deployment options spanning local packages, remote services, and hybrid setups.
- Early adoption signals include a plan for DiskCleanKit to add MCP support and a forthcoming deep dive on Chrome DevTools MCP for practical web development workflows.
