Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about MCP Servers

What is MCP (Model Context Protocol)?

MCP is an open-source protocol developed by Anthropic that allows AI systems like Claude to securely connect to various data sources. It provides a common standard for AI assistants to access external data, tools, and prompts through a client-server architecture.

What are MCP Servers?

MCP Servers are systems that provide context, tools, and prompts to AI clients. They can expose data sources like files, documents, databases, and API integrations, enabling AI assistants to access real-time information in a secure way.

How do MCP Servers work?

MCP Servers work through a simple client-server architecture. They expose data and tools through a standardized protocol, maintaining secure 1:1 connections between clients in host applications like Claude Desktop.

What can MCP Servers provide?

MCP Servers can share resources (files, documents, data), expose tools (API integrations, operations), and provide prompts (templated interactions). They control their own resources and maintain clear system boundaries for security.

How does Claude use MCP?

Claude can connect to MCP Servers to access external data sources and tools, enhancing its capabilities with real-time information. Currently, this applies to local MCP Servers, with enterprise-grade remote server support coming soon.

Are MCP Servers secure?

Yes, security is built into the MCP protocol. Servers control their own resources, don't need to share API keys with LLM providers, and systems maintain clear boundaries. Each server manages its own authentication and access controls.
