MCP WorkshopModel Context Protocol

Build, connect, and ship an MCP system end-to-end - from raw server/client communication to a production-ready agent with real design data.

Prerequisites

Set up Node.js, VS Code, GitHub Copilot, and your Autodesk APS account before starting.

Build an MCP server in Node.js and connect it to VS Code Copilot. Learn the protocol fundamentals.

Extend your server with a filesystem tool and a live weather API. Introduce MCP chaining with a second server.

Integrate the Autodesk Platform Services API to list and create OSS buckets from Copilot.

Add OAuth login so your agent can call Autodesk APIs on behalf of a specific user.

Build your own MCP client and wire in Gemini to create a fully autonomous LLM agent.

Auth hardening, secrets management, error handling, deployment, and observability before you ship.
