Anthropic has open-sourced the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to revolutionize how AI assistants connect to data sources like business tools and repositories. MCP enables seamless, two-way communication between AI apps and data systems, eliminating the need for custom connectors. Companies like Block and Apollo are early adopters, and Replit, Codeium, and Sourcegraph are adding support. “With MCP, AI systems will maintain context as they move between tools,” Anthropic wrote, aiming to replace fragmented integrations with sustainable architecture. Though promising, its adoption faces challenges, especially with competitors like OpenAI pursuing proprietary alternatives like “Work with Apps.” #replit #anthropic #ai #aforai #community #techbyhimalayas
