AI agents are everywhere, but how do they actually talk to your databases, Notion, or GitHub? Meet the Model Context Protocol (MCP)—the "USB-C for AI" that is revolutionizing how we connect LLMs to external data. In this MCP server tutorial, we move past the theory and build a real-world mcp server and ai agents project from scratch. We are building a Text-to-SQL MCP server on top of an IPL Cricket Database (2008-2026). You'll learn how to ask questions in natural language and have an AI agent generate, validate, and execute SQL queries automatically.
