The post discusses how to implement and use MCP tools with Amazon-Q or any other client, building upon the MCP custom server setup.
MCP Server tools function as primitives to expose executable functionality to clients, enabling the server to execute specific tasks requested by clients.
The example in the post demonstrates adding a new capability of tools to a custom server connected to Amazon-Q, allowing the generation of image files from flowcharts using mermaid.js API.
The process involves creating a tool named 'flow-chart' that takes inputs and generates image files from mermaid markdown, showcasing the power and potential of utilizing MCP protocol and custom servers for enhanced functionalities.
