Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers

If you’re trying to wrap your head around MCP servers, this one’s for you. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is all about making machine learning models more transparent — standardising how we share context like training data, assumptions, limitations, and usage recommendations.

This Signal pulls together a bunch of solid links: official specs, decent explainers, implementation notes, and conversations worth your time. No fluff, just the useful stuff if you’re looking to understand what MCP servers do and why they might matter.
