MCP: why you should adopt it now
Model Context Protocol is USB for AI tools. Here's why it changes everything.
The integration problem
Every agent needs tools: CRM lookup, calendar booking, email send. Until now: one custom integration per vendor. Anthropic's API, OpenAI's functions, every vendor with its own schema.
What MCP changes
MCP standardizes this. A server exposes tools, resources and prompts — a client (your agent, any platform) consumes them. Like USB for hardware: build once, use everywhere.
Why now?
The big players (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google) agreed on it. Cursor, Claude Desktop, Continue — all speak MCP. If you build an integration today, it should be MCP-compliant.
What we do
All new skills we build to MCP. Existing custom skills we migrate on request. Benefit: your integrations keep working in any other MCP-capable tool.
Concrete example
We just built an MCP server for Strapi — the CMS behind this website. Any MCP-capable agent can now read and write Strapi content. Open source: github.com/honeyfield/strapi-mcp.
