Frequently asked questions
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude connect to external tools and data sources. It's how you give AI access to your files, databases, APIs, and more.
Do I need coding experience?
Basic familiarity with JSON and command line is helpful. I walk through everything step-by-step, so you can follow along even if you're not a developer.
Which AI assistants support MCP?
Claude Desktop (via Anthropic), Cursor, Windsurf, and other MCP-compatible clients. The protocol is open, so support is growing.
Is this course free?
Yes. All 30 lessons are free: the whole course is one 2.5 hour YouTube video, every lesson page here plays it from that lesson's timestamp and carries the full transcript and the code, and the checkpoint zips are free downloads.
