Module 6: MCP Integration
What is MCP?
- Model Context Protocol — a standard for connecting AI to external tools
- Think of it as "USB ports for AI" — plug in any compatible tool
- The GitHub MCP server is built-in (search repos, issues, PRs, actions)

- Never put credentials directly in config files
- Use environment variable references:
{{env.SECRET}} - Review MCP server source before using
- Only connect servers you actually need
