MCP

Model Context Protocol — an open standard for connecting an AI agent to external tools, data, and systems.

MCP defines a common protocol between an AI agent and the tools/data sources it can call — a database, an API, a filesystem — so integrations get built once against the protocol instead of once per agent framework.

It shows up in the résumé’s AI infrastructure work directly: MCP tool integration alongside pipelines and autonomous agents, and it’s how tools like reach beyond their own sandbox.
