Google has launched fully-managed Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to simplify how AI models interact with data and tools. This new infrastructure allows developers to connect their AI applications directly with Google services like Maps and BigQuery, streamlining complex tasks without the hassle of managing individual servers.

WorkOS offers a streamlined solution for implementing secure authentication with its MCP servers using OAuth 2.1 flows, making it easy for developers to integrate complex protocols. The platform provides essential tools, documentation, and community support to help users quickly launch their apps without the need for user migration. With AuthKit, developers can focus on building their applications while it handles the intricacies of OAuth.

OpenAI has introduced full Model Context Protocol (MCP) support in ChatGPT, allowing developers to use custom connectors for read and write actions within chats. This new feature, available in Developer Mode, enables integration with external systems and APIs, transforming ChatGPT into a programmable automation hub. Developers are advised to exercise caution due to the potential for prompt injection attacks and the risks associated with real write operations.
