Building Agents with Model Context Protocol - Full Workshop with Mahesh Murag of Anthropic
by AI Engineer (Mahesh Murag, Anthropic)
Anthropic's deep-dive MCP workshop from AI Engineer.
Overview
Recorded at the AI Engineer Summit and delivered by Mahesh Murag of Anthropic's Applied AI team, this popular full-length workshop covers building AI agents with the Model Context Protocol end to end. It starts from foundational concepts (what MCP is and how it works) and progresses to hands-on building techniques and how MCP relates to agent development, showing how to create more capable, context-aware AI systems by standardizing how they interact with external tools and data. It frames MCP as a universal, open standard that replaces fragmented integrations with a single protocol, and closes with the future roadmap and upcoming developments in the protocol, making it one of the most-referenced video introductions to building with MCP.
