Learn to build AI agents using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) in this comprehensive workshop led by Mahesh Murag from Anthropic's Applied AI team. Discover MCP as a universal, open standard that connects AI systems with data sources through a single protocol, eliminating the need for fragmented integrations. Explore the philosophy behind MCP's development and understand its impact on the broader AI ecosystem since its launch. Master practical techniques for leveraging MCP to create context-rich AI applications and sophisticated agentic experiences. Begin with foundational concepts of what MCP is and how it works, then progress to hands-on building techniques with MCP implementation. Dive deep into the relationship between MCP and agent development, learning how to create more capable and context-aware AI systems. Conclude by examining the future roadmap for MCP and upcoming developments in the protocol. Gain insights from an expert who works directly on MCP development at Anthropic, the company behind Claude AI, and learn how enterprises can make their AI systems more useful and effective through proper context integration.
