MCP server

In practice

Before a shared protocol, every agent framework defined tools its own way, so an integration written for one runtime was worthless to another. MCP makes the connection reusable: write a server once and any MCP-capable agent can call it. In practice an MCP server is how an agent reaches a database, an internal API, or a third-party service without that integration being baked into the runtime. The security consequence is worth stating plainly, because it is easy to miss: connecting an MCP server grants the agent whatever that server can do, so scope its credentials to the job rather than to convenience.
