Can you explain to me how does it work ? What’s the purpose on mcp ?

the MCP website explains it really well "MCP is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications. Just as USB-C provides a standardized way to connect your devices to various peripherals and accessories, MCP provides a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools."

What are your thoughts on MCP so far? Keep updating us about more MCPs. I will try it tomorrow.

it's a great way to extend cursor, claude, or any other tool which supports MCP with other data sources and tools this is great since the limitations of LLMs is the knowledge cutoff it can also be used to orchestrate stuff like puppeteer and browserbase MCPs a lot of possibilities!

Thanks for sharing this. Super helpful. I’m seeing a lot of ai agents needing to change their approach. Instead of a ton of agents you can have a more orchestrated approach and use MCP

Have you used the Postgres query example shown here much yet? Am curious how well it’s handling queries beyond “show me all X”. Seems like a major unlock for writing tests

it's read only so for selecting data only. I tried to ask it to filter data from my table and it was able to do it so I am assuming it can also make complex queries since it is using Sonnet i usually use a separate SQL tool to query my data when coding with Cursor this makes it easier to work with my data in cursor they have a puppeteer MCP if you're interested in doing browser testing

what is mcp

You should totally link folks to Smithery ai. They have commands for each IDE makes setup a lot easier!
