MCP (Model Context Protocol)

An open standard that lets models connect to external tools and data sources in a unified way.

Instead of building a custom integration per tool, an MCP server exposes tools once and any MCP-aware client (like Claude Code or Gemini CLI) can use them — think of it as a USB-C port for AI tools.

Claude Code is Anthropic's agentic coding tool that works in your terminal and editor, understanding your entire codebase to plan, write, and refactor code autonomously. It handles multi-file changes, runs tests, and integrates with Git workflows — designed for developers who want an AI collaborator, not just autocomplete.

Gemini CLI is an open-source command-line AI agent from Google that brings Gemini models directly into your terminal. It handles coding assistance, file analysis, and automation tasks without leaving the command line, with multi-turn conversation support and easy integration into existing developer workflows.
