MCP (Model Context Protocol) — Advisor & Reference

Specification: https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-11-25 (November 2025)

When to Use MCP (Decision Tree)

Scenario Use MCP? Why
Query PostgreSQL/MySQL/SQLite Yes Official servers exist, read-only by default
Access filesystem outside workspace Yes Scoped allowlists, audit trail
GitHub/Linear/Slack/Notion integration Yes Vendor MCP servers available
One-off HTTP API call No Use WebFetch or Bash curl
Internal API with auth Maybe Build custom MCP server if repeated, otherwise direct call
Need write access to production DB Caution Prefer read-only; if writes needed, scope tightly

Rule of thumb: Use MCP when (1) an official/community server exists, (2) you need audit/permission control, or (3) you'll reuse the integration across sessions.
