The Missing Link: How MCP Solves AI's Context Problem

AI coding agents are powerful but fundamentally context-blind, often generating code that doesn't align with project architecture or conventions. MCP (Model Context Protocol) solves this by enabling agents to selectively request the context they need when they need it—transforming how projects share information with AI. For Next.js teams, this represents a paradigm shift: AI evolves from a generic coding tool into a project-aware teammate that understands your codebase's unique architecture and conventions.
