tool use integration

Demonstrates how to structure tools (query drafts, update tags, run actions) for AI consumption. Shows the design pattern: limited, explicit interfaces rather than open-ended access

MCP is a standardized implementation pattern for tool integration, solving the fragmentation problem in how AI systems discover and use external capabilities.

MCPs are the standardized mechanism for integrating tools into Claude's context. This list is a taxonomy of tool integrations available to Claude Code.

MCP enables external tool binding, extending Claude's capabilities through context-managed integrations

Agent skills map to specific tools (web_search, arxiv_search, rag_search); article shows tool abstraction layer in multi-agent context.

System connects LLM to curated toolkit of domain-specific functions, but no detail on how context is passed to/from tools or maintained across tool chains.
