What is MCP System Monitor?
MCP System Monitor is a system monitoring tool designed to provide real-time system metrics to Large Language Models (LLMs) via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It gathers data on CPU, memory, disk, network, and processes, making it accessible to LLMs for informed decision-making.
How to use MCP System Monitor?
To use MCP System Monitor, first clone the repository, build the binary using make build, and then run the compiled executable ./mcp-monitor. The server operates in stdio mode, ready to communicate with an MCP-compatible LLM client. The LLM can then use the provided tools (get_cpu_info, get_memory_info, etc.) to retrieve specific system information.
Key features of MCP System Monitor
CPU Information: Usage percentage, core count, and detailed CPU info
Memory Information: Virtual and swap memory usage
Disk Information: Disk usage, partitions, and I/O statistics
Network Information: Network interfaces, connections, and traffic statistics
Host Information: System details, uptime, boot time, and users
Process Information: Process listing, sorting, and detailed per-process statistics
Use cases of MCP System Monitor
Real-time system health monitoring for LLM-powered applications
Dynamic resource allocation based on system load
Automated troubleshooting and diagnostics
Adaptive LLM behavior based on available system resources
FAQ from MCP System Monitor
What is MCP?
What is MCP?
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It's a protocol designed to facilitate communication between LLMs and external tools or systems.
How does this tool communicate with LLMs?
How does this tool communicate with LLMs?
The tool communicates with LLMs through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) via standard input/output (stdio).
What kind of system information can I retrieve?
What kind of system information can I retrieve?
You can retrieve CPU, memory, disk, network, host, and process information.
Can I monitor specific processes?
Can I monitor specific processes?
Yes, you can monitor specific processes by using the get_process_info tool and specifying the process ID (PID).
Is it possible to sort processes by CPU or memory usage?
Is it possible to sort processes by CPU or memory usage?
Yes, the get_process_info tool allows you to sort processes by CPU, memory, PID, or name using the sort_by parameter.
