Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an approach for connecting AI models to external tools, data sources, and context in a structured way—so agents and applications can use capabilities beyond a single chat window. In practical training language, MCP relates to how you expose tools and context interfaces to LLM-powered systems.

Vector Skill Academy covers MCP-style integration as part of the broader AI builder and AI Engineering journey: tool calling, safe interfaces, and connecting agents to real systems. Exact syllabus modules may evolve; counselors map MCP topics to the right course track.
