MCP: Build Rich-Context AI Apps with Anthropic
Build AI apps that access tools, data, and prompts using the Model Context Protocol.
The article describes building a custom CLI coding agent using the Pydantic-AI framework combined with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Claude Sonnet 4 via AWS Bedrock.
The agent is designed to interact with codebases, run tests, provide targeted code fixes, and use pluggable MCP servers for capabilities like sandboxed Python execution. Instructions and development guidelines are embedded to enforce project-specific behavior and best practices.
This architecture allows rapid extension of agent functions while keeping user data local and secure.
