&lt;p&gt;The innovation of AI Agents and Agentic AI systems has revolutionized the adoption of Generative AI. Agents empower systems to autonomously achieve goals by performing tasks. &lt;strong&gt;Tools&lt;/strong&gt; are the key building blocks for AI agents that provide them with superior decision-making and implementation capabilities. &lt;strong&gt;Model Context Protocol (MCP)&lt;/strong&gt; protocol has standardized the approach of building tools enabling faster, seamless integration. In this paper, we are going to talk about MCP, the underlying architecture. We will also provide a simple code example of building MCP tools in Java using Spring AI and integrating it with an AI Agent.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
