MCP (Model Context Protocol)

An open protocol from Anthropic (late 2024) for connecting AI models to external tools and data sources in a standardized way — like USB-C for AI.

MCP solves a fragmentation problem: every AI tool needs to talk to dozens of systems (Salesforce, Slack, GitHub, calendars, databases), and historically each integration was custom. MCP standardizes the conversation. An "MCP server" exposes a tool/data source through a protocol; any "MCP client" (Claude Desktop, Cursor, increasingly other LLM apps) can use it without custom code.

Salesforce announced support for MCP in 2025, with bi-directional MCP servers for Salesforce data going GA in 2026. This means Claude, ChatGPT Enterprise, and other LLM clients can query Salesforce records, take actions, and write back — all through a single standardized protocol.

For gptfy and similar platforms, MCP is an accelerator: instead of building dozens of custom integrations, they can expose gptfy capabilities via MCP and let any LLM-based client use them.
