# Ready Layer One: Intro to the Model Context Protocol

Discover how the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction) (MCP) connects AI to the real world. We'll explore the Model Context Protocol using the Kotlin SDK letting an Agent control Android devices with [ADB](https://developer.android.com/tools/adb)! We’ll live code a new ADB tool and demo how AI Agents and the MCP can automate tedious device tasks, like setting up device permissions, streamlining your Android workflow. You’ll leave this talk understanding the Model Context Protocol, its [Kotlin SDK](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/kotlin-sdk), and be ready to build your own AI-driven integrations!
