Model Context Protocol Notes
- Standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs
- Should help to integrate with data and tools
- Add flexibility to switch between llm providers and vendors
- Let’s you secure your data within your own infrastructure
Architecture
Client Server Architecture.
An application can connect to multiple servers
- Host: End-User applications running an LLMs
- Client: A protocol client that connects to a servers
- Server: A progrom that exposes specific capabilities
Essentially Servers expose data/tools while clients consume them.
Servers
Essentially initialize an MCP Server with mcp = FastMCP() object in python and then
use decorators of @mcp.tool() to register certain functions
