After this module, you will be able to:
MCP (Model Context Protocol) = Plugins that give AI access to external tools and data
The problem: AI knowledge is static (training cutoff date). Libraries update constantly.
The solution: MCPs provide live, current information.
| Without MCP | With MCP |
|---|---|
| AI guesses API syntax | AI reads actual docs |
| Outdated library versions | Current documentation |
| Hallucinated function names | Real function signatures |
| Generic patterns | Your actual codebase patterns |
| MCP | What it does |
|---|---|
| Context7 | Live documentation lookup for any library |
| Figma | Design-to-code with accuracy |
| Supabase | Database schema awareness |
| GitHub | Issue/PR access, repo operations |
| Jira/Linear | Ticket awareness |
| Pencil | Vibe Design |
