WEBVTT 00:01.360 --> 00:03.040 Hello everyone and welcome. 00:03.480 --> 00:08.080 In this video we will learn about server components within MCP server. 00:08.280 --> 00:12.400 So here are the three key components that MCP server provides. 00:12.760 --> 00:14.000 One is the tools. 00:14.240 --> 00:17.880 Second one is resources and the third is prompts. 00:18.240 --> 00:22.440 Let's understand each one of them in detail. 00:23.160 --> 00:25.560 So the very first one is tools. 00:26.080 --> 00:32.680 You can think of tools as an actions that AI knows to perform on its own, when it needs to do something. 00:33.120 --> 00:40.240 This is a model controlled which can perform actions like retrieve search where AI can look up relevant 00:40.240 --> 00:46.880 data, can Dos send receive messages to communicate with other system or user. 00:47.280 --> 00:53.920 It can also update database records where it can modify and write to different databases. 00:54.400 --> 00:57.760 The next server component is resources. 00:58.120 --> 01:03.440 The resources are like books and documents that AI is allowed to read. 01:03.880 --> 01:12.080 It is application controlled and these data sources are made available to the AI by application or developer. 01:12.640 --> 01:20.720 It can perform tasks like files for uploads, for database records, rows from database that AI can 01:20.720 --> 01:27.080 read, and API responses, that is, information from external systems via API calls. 01:27.640 --> 01:29.840 The third server component is prompts. 01:30.040 --> 01:32.240 It is completely user controlled. 01:32.520 --> 01:39.240 You can think of prompts like giving AI a form to fill, or a script to follow, a task that you can 01:39.240 --> 01:42.680 perform prompts and document Q and A. 01:43.280 --> 01:47.360 You can also do transcript, summary, and workflow automation. 01:47.600 --> 01:51.640 So here we took a deep dive into each server components. 01:51.840 --> 01:53.240 Thank you so much. 01:53.400 --> 01:55.640 And I'll see you in the next video.
