So, in the last post about what is MCP, we established that MCP is like a universal adapter for AI, letting it plug into data and tools more easily. Cool.
Now, let’s get you introduced to all the entire ecosystem of MCP ( MCP servers, MCP clients, many tools getting added as we write this) and the use cases they are being actively developed.
If you are an MCP enthusiast, its a great time to be alive.

FAQs
What is MCP in AI?
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol—a language-agnostic spec that lets large language models fetch or push data through standardized JSON messages.
What is an MCP server?
An MCP server is a lightweight HTTP/WS service (often < 500 LOC) that exposes one or more resources, tools, or prompts per the MCP spec.
Does MCP work with ChatGPT?
Yes. Any framework that supports function calls (LangChain, LlamaIndex, etc.) can translate those into MCP requests—turning ChatGPT into an mcp client.
