MCP (Model Context Protocol)
An open standard for connecting AI agents to tools and data, supported natively by Ngentix as server, client, and gateway.
The Model Context Protocol is the emerging open standard for connecting AI agents to the tools and data they need. It reduces the integration complexity of AI systems from quadratic to linear and is backed across the major AI labs.
Ngentix implements MCP as a first-class part of the platform: every connector it builds is automatically published as an MCP tool (server), it can consume external MCP servers as data sources (client), and it operates an MCP gateway that governs which agents can discover and call which tools.
Crucially, the tool descriptions are grounded in the Universal Data Model — an agent sees "Create Invoice" with full semantic context, not a raw "POST /api/v2/invoices".
