-> [!NOTE]
-> MCP Documentation is coming soon for .Net.
+The simplest way to add a plugin using MCP with Semantic Kernel is using the `ModelContextProtocol-SemanticKernel` package. 
+
+### Add the package
+```
+dotnet add package ModelContextProtocol-SemanticKernel --version 0.3.0-preview-01
+```
+
+### Register a single function or tool
+Use the extension method to register a specific MCP function/tool.
+```
+// Stdio
+await kernel.Plugins.AddMcpFunctionsFromStdioServerAsync("GitHub", "npx", ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"]);
+
+// SSE
+await kernel.Plugins.AddMcpFunctionsFromSseServerAsync("GitHub", new Uri("http://localhost:12345"));
+```
+
+### Register MCP Server(s) from Claude Desktop configuration
+It's also possible to register all Stdio MCP Servers which are registered in Claude Desktop:
+```
+// Stdio MCP Tools defined in claude_desktop_config.json
+await kernel.Plugins.AddToolsFromClaudeDesktopConfigAsync();
+```
+
+### Full STDIO example
+```
+var builder = Kernel.CreateBuilder();
+builder.Services.AddLogging(c => c.AddDebug().SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Trace));
+
+builder.Services.AddOpenAIChatCompletion(
+    serviceId: "openai",
+    modelId: "gpt-4o-mini",
+    apiKey: Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("OPENAI_API_KEY")!);
+
+var kernel = builder.Build();
+
+// Add this line to enable MCP functions from a Stdio server named "Everything"
+await kernel.Plugins.AddMcpFunctionsFromStdioServerAsync("Everything", "npx", ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"]);
+
+var executionSettings = new OpenAIPromptExecutionSettings
+{
+    Temperature = 0,
+    FunctionChoiceBehavior = FunctionChoiceBehavior.Auto()
+};
+
+var prompt = "Please call the echo tool with the string 'Hello Stef!' and give me the response as-is.";
+var result = await kernel.InvokePromptAsync(prompt, new(executionSettings)).ConfigureAwait(false);
+Console.WriteLine($"\n\n{prompt}\n{result}");
+```
+Result:
+```
+Please call the echo tool with the string 'Hello Stef!' and give me the response as-is.
+Echo: Hello Stef!
+```
+
+### Full SSE example
+```
+var builder = Kernel.CreateBuilder();
+builder.Services.AddLogging(c => c.AddDebug().SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Trace));
+
+builder.Services.AddOpenAIChatCompletion(
+    serviceId: "openai",
+    modelId: "gpt-4o-mini",
+    apiKey: Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("OPENAI_API_KEY")!);
+
+var kernel = builder.Build();
+
+// Add this line to enable MCP functions from a Sse server named "Github"
+// - Note that a server must be running at the specified URL
+await kernel.Plugins.AddMcpFunctionsFromSseServerAsync("GitHub", "http://localhost:12345");
+
+var executionSettings = new OpenAIPromptExecutionSettings
+{
+    Temperature = 0,
+    FunctionChoiceBehavior = FunctionChoiceBehavior.Auto()
+};
+
+var prompt = "Summarize the last 3 commits to the StefH/FluentBuilder repository.";
+var result = await kernel.InvokePromptAsync(prompt, new(executionSettings)).ConfigureAwait(false);
+Console.WriteLine($"\n\n{prompt}\n{result}");
+```
+
+Results:
+```
