connector.json vs MCP
Different Layers, Same Ecosystem
MCP: Tool Access Protocol
MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets AI connect to external tools and data:- AI calls
github.create_pr()→ MCP sends request → GitHub API → response - AI calls
postgres.query()→ MCP sends request → database → results
connector.json: AI Orchestration Spec
connector.json lets AI coordinate with other AI:- Claude implements → Codex reviews → results synthesized
- Both are active participants. Both reason, decide, act.
