LLM Bridge MCP

smithery badge

LLM Bridge MCP allows AI agents to interact with multiple large language models through a standardized interface. It leverages the Message Control Protocol (MCP) to provide seamless access to different LLM providers, making it easy to switch between models or use multiple models in the same application.

Features

  • Unified interface to multiple LLM providers:
    • OpenAI (GPT models)
    • Anthropic (Claude models)
    • Google (Gemini models)
    • DeepSeek
    • ...
  • Built with Pydantic AI for type safety and validation
  • Supports customizable parameters like temperature and max tokens
  • Provides usage tracking and metrics

Tools

The server implements the following tool:

run_llm(
    prompt: str,
    model_name: KnownModelName = "openai:gpt-4o-mini",
    temperature: float = 0.7,
    max_tokens: int = 8192,
    system_prompt: str = "",
) -> LLMResponse
  • prompt: The text prompt to send to the LLM
  • model_name: Specific model to use (default: "openai:gpt-4o-mini")
  • temperature: Controls randomness (0.0 to 1.0)
  • max_tokens: Maximum number of tokens to generate
  • system_prompt: Optional system prompt to guide the model's behavior

Installation

Installing via Smithery

To install llm-bridge-mcp for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @sjquant/llm-bridge-mcp --client claude

Manual Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/llm-bridge-mcp.git
cd llm-bridge-mcp
  1. Install uv (if not already installed):
# On macOS
brew install uv

# On Linux
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# On Windows
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"

Configuration

Create a .env file in the root directory with your API keys:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_anthropic_api_key
GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_google_api_key
DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=your_deepseek_api_key

Usage

Using with Claude Desktop or Cursor

Add a server entry to your Claude Desktop configuration file or .cursor/mcp.json:

"mcpServers": {
  "llm-bridge": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
      "llm-bridge-mcp"
    ],
    "env": {
      "OPENAI_API_KEY": "your_openai_api_key",
      "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your_anthropic_api_key",
      "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "your_google_api_key",
      "DEEPSEEK_API_KEY": "your_deepseek_api_key"
    }
  }
}

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

1. "spawn uvx ENOENT" Error

This error occurs when the system cannot find the uvx executable in your PATH. To resolve this:

Solution: Use the full path to uvx

Find the full path to your uvx executable:

# On macOS/Linux
which uvx

# On Windows
where.exe uvx

Then update your MCP server configuration to use the full path:

"mcpServers": {
  "llm-bridge": {
    "command": "/full/path/to/uvx",  // Replace with your actual path
    "args": [
      "llm-bridge-mcp"
    ],
    "env": {
      // ... your environment variables
    }
  }
}

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications provide context to LLMs. Think of MCP like a USB-C port for AI applications, providing a standardized way to connect AI models to different data sources and tools.

What are MCP Servers?

MCP Servers are lightweight programs that expose specific capabilities through the standardized Model Context Protocol. They act as bridges between LLMs like Claude and various data sources or services, allowing secure access to files, databases, APIs, and other resources.

How do MCP Servers work?

MCP Servers follow a client-server architecture where a host application (like Claude Desktop) connects to multiple servers. Each server provides specific functionality through standardized endpoints and protocols, enabling Claude to access data and perform actions through the standardized protocol.

Are MCP Servers secure?

Yes, MCP Servers are designed with security in mind. They run locally with explicit configuration and permissions, require user approval for actions, and include built-in security features to prevent unauthorized access and ensure data privacy.
