A major milestone for MCP. Tomorrow at MCP Night, founding members of the new Agentic AI Foundation, Jim Zemlin (The Linux Foundation), David Soria Parra (Anthropic), Nick Cooper (OpenAI), and 🇦🇺 Manik Surtani (Block), will join us live on stage for a panel to discuss today's news. Come learn what's next for agentic AI. Register below.
One year ago, we launched the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as an open standard for connecting AI applications to external systems. Since then, MCP has become a foundational protocol for agentic AI, with 10,000+ active servers, client support across most leading AI platforms, and 97M+ monthly SDK downloads. Today, we’re taking a major step to ensure MCP’s long-term future as an open, community-driven and vendor-neutral standard. Anthropic is donating MCP to the Linux Foundation, where it will be a founding project of the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF)—a new directed fund established by Anthropic, OpenAI, Block, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Cloudflare, and Bloomberg to advance open-source innovation in agentic AI. We're continuing to invest in MCP's growth alongside the open source community. Read the full announcement: https://lnkd.in/g6N3hUmd
