The Model Context Protocol - that extends IDEs’ AI capabilities - is gaining rapid popularity. Why is this, and why should us developers pay attention to it?
Introducing the Model Context Protocol
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting AI assistants to the systems where data lives, including content repositories, business tools, and development environments. Its aim is to help frontier models produce better, more relevant responses.

Notion’s hosted MCP server: an inside look
Earlier this year, we got requests for a Notion MCP server that would let AI agents work directly with Notion workspaces. Here’s how we built it, from our initial open-source experiment to today’s hosted solution with custom tools designed specifically for AI workflows.
