Basically it’s a layer to let your LLMs plug into tools.
They generally run on your machine (I use docker to sandbox them) and may or may not call out to useful APIs
One example is I just wrote one to connect to my national weather services RSS feed, so my LLMs can get and summarize the weather for me in the morning.
What does an MCP server do?

Works well with Gemma 3n
An MCP server can also just be an interface to something useful but simple like a calculator.
