+### Transport Modes
+
+MCP servers can communicate with clients through different transport mechanisms. Each transport is optimized for specific use cases and client types.
+
+The stdio (standard input/output) transport is used for direct client connections. It is ideal for desktop applications (Claude, VS Code, Cursor) and command-line tools.
+
+The HTTP transport provides REST/SSE endpoints for web-based clients. It is the default transport mode and is used for most clients.

 ### MCP (Model Context Protocol)
 
 MCP is an open standard protocol that enables LLMs to access and use tools and data sources. Arcade tools go further than MCP with enterprise-grade authentication, secure token management, and fine-grained permissions. This allows your tools to be accessible to any LLM that supports MCP, while maintaining security and user privacy.
