🔥 One-Day Workshop • Limited Spots
📅 June 19th 🕒 8:30 AM — 2:30 PM (Pacific Time)
Are you ready to shape the next era of user interaction? Join us on June 19th, 2025, for an exclusive, live remote workshop where you'll dive deep into the Model Context Protocol (MCP)—the groundbreaking standard that's redefining how AI interfaces with applications. Whether you're a developer, product leader, or AI enthusiast, this hands-on event will equip you with the knowledge and skills to build the tools that tomorrow's "Jarvis" assistants will rely on.
In this workshop, you'll get a comprehensive introduction to the MCP specification, learning not just the what but the why behind this protocol's design. We'll walk through real-world use cases, explore the architecture of MCP servers, and demystify the glue that connects LLMs to the world's data and services. You'll discover how the MCP SDK empowers you to create robust, secure, and scalable integrations—no more brittle wrappers or endless custom glue code. Instead, you'll learn to build tools that are discoverable, composable, and ready for the AI-powered future. (Learn more about the vision behind MCP)
What you'll learn and build in this workshop:
- The core architecture of MCP: hosts, clients, and servers (spec)
- How to set up and verify MCP server connectivity with
ping - How to declare and implement tools, including input validation, error handling, and dynamic responses
- How to expose and manage resources (files, database records, etc.) for LLMs and clients
- How to create and register reusable, parameterized prompts to guide model behavior
- How to leverage MCP's sampling capability to request model completions and automate tasks
- Hands-on debugging and real-world integration patterns
Expect a blend of theory and practice: you'll see live demos, get hands-on with the SDK, and debug real MCP servers in a collaborative environment. We'll cover best practices for tool design, security considerations, and how to make your services accessible to both humans and AI. You'll also gain insight into the cost-effective promise of MCP, and how it's already changing the landscape of AI onboarding and user experience.
This is a unique opportunity to become an early adopter and shaper of a technology that's still in its infancy—but moving fast. The MCP ecosystem is evolving rapidly, and by joining this workshop, you'll be at the forefront, ready to build integrations that matter. You'll leave with not just technical know-how, but a new perspective on what's possible when AI can truly interact with your app, your data, and your users—securely and at scale.
Seats are limited to 40 participants to ensure a highly interactive experience. Don't miss your chance to be part of this pivotal moment—reserve your spot and help build the future of AI interaction!
