Demystifying MCP: Build a Code Agent with MCP and Mastra
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard developed by Anthropic that enables seamless integration between AI systems and various data sources and tools. By standardizing how applications provide context to large language models (LLMs), MCP simplifies the development of AI-powered applications, allowing for more efficient and scalable integrations.
In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to leverage MCP in conjunction with Mastra to build intelligent coding agents that streamline development workflows.
We'll start by covering the fundamentals of MCP, including its architecture and how it standardizes interactions between AI models and external data sources. Then, you'll dive into practical implementation—building a simple local coding agent that can assist with tasks like code generation, modification, and execution.
You'll gain hands-on experience with:
Understanding the core components of MCP and how it facilitates AI integration
Integrating MCP with Mastra to enhance development workflows
Building a local coding agent that automates and enhances coding tasks
Best practices for structuring AI agent interactions within a development environment
This workshop is ideal for developers and AI engineers looking to explore the intersection of AI and coding automation. Participants should have familiarity with JavaScript and be comfortable working with AI models.
Come prepared with a code editor—you'll leave with a functional coding agent that you can expand and integrate into your own development workflows.
Take your AI-powered development to the next level with MCP and Mastra. Join us for this hands-on session and start building smarter coding agents today!
