If you are building with LLMs, MCP matters because it reduces one-off integrations and gives models a consistent way to discover capabilities, call tools, and access context safely.</p> <p>For developers, the easiest way to think about MCP is: <strong>USB-C for AI tools</strong>. Instead of writing custom glue code for every model, editor, database, and API, you expose capabilities through an MCP server and let an MCP client consume them in a predictable format.</p>
