What is Light MCP Agents?
Light MCP Agents is a framework designed to simplify the construction and management of AI agents that use the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It enables the creation of agent networks where agents can delegate tasks, share capabilities and work together.
How to use Light MCP Agents?
To use Light MCP Agents, you need to install the required dependencies and configure your agents using JSON configuration files. You can run agents in server mode to enable communication between them. The framework also supports integration with Claude Desktop by configuring agents within its mcpServers section.
