mcp
by zhkzly
This project provides a simple implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) with Cline as a client and Gemini as a possible LLM. It focuses on demonstrating how to use clients to interact with LLMs and define tools for them.

What is mcp?
This is an implementation of a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It allows you to define tools (like Python scripts) that can be called by an LLM through a client like Cline. The server generates these tools and exposes them for use.
How to use mcp?
- Clone the repository. 2. Install the Cline plugin in VSCode. 3. Configure Cline to connect to the MCP server by adding the configuration file. 4. Define tools in the
/src/
directory (e.g.,calculate.py
,datawale.py
). 5. Run the server using a command similar touv --directory /path/to/directory run script.py
. 6. Use the Cline client to interact with the LLM and call the defined tools.

FAQ from mcp
What is MCP?
What is MCP?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a protocol for defining and sharing tools and workflows for LLMs.
What is Cline?
What is Cline?
Cline is a client that can be used to interact with MCP servers and LLMs.
How do I define a tool?
How do I define a tool?
Tools are defined as Python scripts in the /src/
directory. You need to define the logic and how it interacts with the LLM.
How do I run the server?
How do I run the server?
Use a command similar to uv --directory /path/to/directory run script.py
. Make sure to use absolute paths.
What are prompts?
What are prompts?
Prompts are reusable prompt templates and workflows that clients can easily surface to users and LLMs. They provide a powerful way to standardize and share common LLM interactions.
