MCP Bridges Chatbots And Backend Tools
- MCP is a protocol that connects AI agents to backend tools by translating natural language into tool calls.
- It sits between chatbots and APIs to teach agents how to perform tasks they can't do out of the box.
Teach The Agent Your Domain Lexicon
- Teach the agent domain language and expected parameters so it maps queries to API calls accurately.
- Use NLP rules and key-phrase detection to convert user intent into concrete resource queries and operations.
Manual Functions Power The Demo MCP
- The developer manually defined functions to represent DRP resources and operations inside the MCP for testing.
- Those functions call the DRP client to make API calls and drive cluster changes or queries.
