MCP Apps

An MCP extension for rendering interactive HTML interfaces, such as forms, dashboards, and visualizations, inside an MCP host.

Plain English

The connector can show a small app in the conversation, not just return text.

Example

A finance MCP server returns an interactive chart that lets the user inspect expenses before approving an action.

Why it matters

Agent-facing software still needs human-facing controls; MCP Apps standardize that UI surface without every host inventing its own version.
