// MISSION BRIEF

Your Mission

The Model Context Protocol wires an AI application to external capabilities through three participants: host, client, and server. Confuse the roles and every bug report you file will point at the wrong box.

This quiz drills the architecture. Scoring: each question is worth equal weight, no penalty for slow, so reason it out.
