Agentic AI using Spring Boot MCP Server

On Udemy

About this course

AI is no longer just about chatbots. The next generation of intelligent systems can reason, plan, and take action — and they're being built right now inside enterprise Java stacks.

This course teaches you how to build Agentic AI systems using Spring Boot and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — the emerging standard for connecting large language models to real-world tools and services. You'll go far beyond basic prompt-and-response patterns and learn how to design AI agents that autonomously call tools, make decisions across multiple steps, and integrate cleanly into production Java backends.

What you'll build: You'll create a fully working AI-powered financial transaction classifier backed by a Spring Boot MCP Server — with real tool registration, dynamic category resolution via "list

Categories" and "create

Category", and a robust agentic loop that handles edge cases production systems actually face.

What makes this course different: Most AI courses live in Python notebooks. This one lives where your production code lives — in a Spring Boot application, using the Anthropic Java SDK and Spring AI. You'll learn not just the happy path but the hard parts: why tool calls silently get skipped, how BeanOutputConverter conflicts with agentic prompts, how to structure two-phase prompts that force the model to call tools before producing output.

What you'll learn:

  • How the Model Context Protocol works and why it's becoming the industry standard
  • Registering and invoking MCP tools inside a Spring Boot application
  • Designing prompts that reliably trigger tool-calling loops
  • Debugging agentic failures — token limits, output conflicts, and silent fallbacks
  • Parsing and validating LLM responses safely in a Java backend
  • Building for production: error handling, observability, and cost con
