Microsoft launches new MCP Server, helping programmers access documents faster

If you are a programmer who regularly uses AI or programming support agents in your workflow, you will be familiar with the concept of Model Context Protocol (MCP) . For those who do not know, MCP can be simply understood as a 'bridge' between AI agents and external tools, services and data sources. This bridge is made through MCP servers , which are already directly supported by Microsoft in Visual Studio. And now, the company continues to expand by allowing faster access to documents.

Recently, Microsoft has launched Microsoft Learn MCP Server . As the name suggests, this server allows connection between AI agents (like LLMs) and Microsoft Learn knowledge base - where all documents, instructions and technical information of most products and services provided by Microsoft are stored.

This means developers can access data from the Microsoft Learn site in real-time via a streamable HTTP protocol, without the need to install additional tools or 'scrapers'. The MCP server can return up to 10 chunks of information or the entire page when more context is needed.

Microsoft believes that this MCP server will be useful in many situations, such as:

1. Create a virtual support assistant for Microsoft services where users can ask questions in natural language and get instant answers.
2. Build an onboarding support agent to help new employees quickly get familiar with technical tools.
3. Support experienced programmers to write code and use services more confidently and effectively.

Developers can use Microsoft Learn MCP Server through the official documentation here . Connecting to the MCP endpoint does not require authentication and is completely free. Microsoft also revealed that in the coming weeks, they will add specific code examples to maximize community support.
