End to end: an agent given only `https://APP` resolves the backend ID first (labeled with its role), reads `getApiDoc` to learn behavior, queries data apps via OQL, and, to act as the user, derives the user's principal against the app's declared derivation origin. All of that happens without a human supplying an ID or guessing which origin the user's principal comes from.

## Connecting an agent

You do not need to build a bespoke agent to consume these layers. An MCP-capable assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client) can use them out of the box through the DFINITY-hosted [ICP MCP connector](https://internetcomputer.org/icp-mcp/#enable). Once connected, the assistant discovers your app's canisters, reads their interfaces and `getApiDoc` guidance, queries OQL data, and acts as the signed-in user through Internet Identity.
