"The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard from Anthropic, designed to facilitate seamless integration between AI models and external systems. By using standardized interfaces, MCP enables AI coding assistants to interact with various tools, such as version control systems, CI/CD pipelines, and even web browsers, without requiring native support for each integration. MCP ensures extensibility and interoperability, making it a flexible solution for developers who need AI-powered coding assistance beyond predefined environments."
"AI-powered code editors such as Cursor AI leverage MCP to extend their capabilities dynamically. Rather than being locked into specific IDE integrations, Cursor AI connects to external MCP-compatible servers that provide additional functionalities like: Version control interactions: MCP allows the AI assistant to retrieve commit histories, suggest Git commands, and even manage pull requests. CI/CD integration: Developers can receive automated feedback from their continuous integration systems, making debugging and deployment workflows smoother."
