It is often described as "the USB-C port for AI", providing a uniform way to connect LLMs to resources they can use. It may be easier to think of it as an API, but specifically designed for LLM interactions. MCP servers can: - Expose data through **Resources** (think of these sort of like GET endpoints; they are used to load information into the LLM's context) - Provide functionality through **Tools** (sort of like POST endpoints; they are used to execute code or otherwise produce a side effect)
