# Model Context Protocol (MCP)
Skyvern's MCP server implementation helps connect your AI applications to the browser. This allows your AI applications to do things like: fill out forms, download files, research information on the web, and more.
You can connect your MCP-enabled applications to Skyvern in two ways:
1. **Local Skyvern Server**
- Use your favourite LLM to power Skyvern
2. **Skyvern Cloud**
- Create an account at [app.skyvern.com](https://app.skyvern.com)
- Get the API key from the settings page which will be used for setup
## Quickstart
> ⚠️ **REQUIREMENT**: Skyvern only runs in Python 3.11 environment today ⚠️
1. **Install Skyvern**
```bash
pip install skyvern
```
2. **Configure Skyvern** Run the setup wizard which will guide you through the configuration process. You can connect to either [Skyvern Cloud](https://app.skyvern.com) or a local version of Skyvern.
```bash

3. **(Optional) Launch the Skyvern Server. Only required in local mode**
```bash
