AI-powered chat system with multiple MCP servers.
🌟 Overview
MCP is a powerful client-server architecture that enables host applications to connect with multiple AI servers seamlessly. This system offers enhanced capabilities through specialized MCP servers:
- MCP Filesystem:
Allows Claude to search and retrieve information from your specified local folders, making your documents and files accessible to the AI.
- MCP Slack Server:
Connects to your Slack workspace, enabling Claude to access and reference your conversations,
channels, and shared resources.
- MCP Brave-Search:
Provides real-time web search capabilities, allowing Claude to find and incorporate the latest information from the internet.
The system intelligently determines which server to utilize based on your queries. Claude automatically analyzes your questions and decides whether to search your local files, check Slack history, or perform a web search - all without requiring explicit instructions from you.
General Architecture 🛠️
At its core, MCP follows a client-server architecture where a host application can connect to multiple servers:
