Yellow Network Co-Founder Heads to Coinfest Asia in Bali

Yellow has integrated its SDK documentation directly into AI-powered code editors including Windsurf, Claude Code, and Cursor through its Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementation. **Key capabilities:** - Technical documentation accessible within AI coding environments - Direct deployment of settlement layers from the editor - Generation of starter architectures without switching contexts - Non-custodial settlement stack integration The integration allows developers to create App Sessions and settlement flows without leaving their development environment. Partner teams can now move from documentation to deployment in a single workflow. The SDK MCP connects Yellow's settlement infrastructure to AI assistants, reducing the friction between reading technical specifications and implementing code.
