Model Context Protocol: The Secret Sauce for Scaling AI Agents
Ravi Raj discusses how the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a game changer for interoperability between AI agents. MCP provides a standardized way for agents to access and share data, enabling them to work together seamlessly across enterprise ecosystems.
Several times, you’ve mentioned MCP, Model Context Protocol, and A2A, Agent-to-Agent. MCP may take the lead here, but it's still pretty new for those unfamiliar with it—just a month or two old. Can you explain what MCP is and why it matters to organizations?
Mudit Garg: Absolutely. MCP, or Model Context Protocol, is essentially a universal translator for AI agents. It’s an open standard designed to enable interoperability across different systems and agents, like the secret sauce that allows AI to scale effectively within enterprise ecosystems.
Here’s the challenge: every AI agent needs access to data and systems to be useful. But if each vendor builds their way of connecting and pulling data, it quickly becomes chaos, especially in complex enterprises where multiple agents are in play.
That’s where MCP comes in. It provides a simple, standardized server-client architecture for agents to read, write, and share data. So instead of reinventing the wheel for each integration, agents can talk to each other and access the right context through a common language.
This levels the playing field. It makes deploying AI agents from different vendors easier and gets them working together seamlessly. And from a user’s perspective, that means faster, smarter, more connected AI experiences. I believe MCP is on track to become the de facto standard for how AI agents exchange context and data going forward.
Does context handling vary across models like Anthropic, Mistral, or Claude—or does MCP help standardize that?
Mudit Garg: That’s exactly what MCP solves. It creates a standard, open-source way to handle context, so it doesn’t really matter which model you’re using. The beauty of MCP is that it allows AI agents to work seamlessly across different LLMs and applications.
As more vendors adopt it, which I think will happen quickly, it’ll become the norm. That means you can build agents that operate across a mix of tools and models, and they’ll just work. That’s the real power of standardization.
It seems like MCP also levels the playing field for startups that don’t have the resources to build custom APIs for every tool. Do you agree?
Mudit Garg: Absolutely. MCP helps both startups and large companies by standardizing how agents connect to enterprise systems. At Yellow.ai, we work with mid-market and enterprise customers, and they typically run 30 to 50 applications. It’s a complex environment.
With so many different models emerging—some better at reasoning, others at transactions—you need AI agents that can work across multiple LLMs and diverse systems. That’s where flexible protocols like MCP really shine.
This shift will accelerate innovation, especially for startups. And honestly, the energy in the space is incredible. CIOs and execs are excited—some nervous, too—but we’re clearly at a significant inflection point. AI will fundamentally reshape enterprise use cases faster than most people expect.
"The Model Context Protocol is a game changer for interoperability, providing a level playing field for AI agents to access, share, and read data uniformly across diverse ecosystems."
