### Description (declared)

# MCP Model Switcher for ai-lib Ecosystem

[![Python 3.10+](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.10+-blue.svg)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)
[![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT%20OR%20Apache--2.0-green.svg)](LICENSE)

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables agents to dynamically switch AI models from the [ai-lib ecosystem](https://github.com/hiddenpath/ai-lib-python).

## Features

- **Protocol-Driven**: All model configurations loaded from ai-protocol manifests (ARCH-001)
- **Multi-Provider Support**: Switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, and more
- **Runtime-Agnostic**: Uses ai-lib-python SDK for unified model interaction
- **MCP-Compliant**: Implements standard MCP tools over stdio transport
- **Capability Discovery**: Query available models and their capabilities

## Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourorg/ai-mcp-model-switcher.git
cd ai-mcp-model-switcher

# Install dependencies
pip install -e .
```

### Environment Setup

Set up your API keys:

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="sk-..."
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="sk-ant-..."
export GOOGLE_API_KEY="..."
```

Recommended provider key mapping:

| Provider | Environment Variable |
|----------|----------------------|
| openai | `OPENAI_API_KEY` |
| anthropic | `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` |
| google | `GOOGLE_API_KEY` or `GEMINI_API_KEY` |
| deepseek | `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` |
| cohere | `COHERE_API_KEY` |
| mistral | `MISTRAL_API_KEY` |

Security note:
- Prefer environment variables over passing `api_key` in tool arguments.
- The server redacts sensitive fields in logs, but passing secrets in arguments still increases exposure risk in client traces.

### Configuration

Add to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Cursor, Claude Desktop):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-model-switcher": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "ai_mcp_model_switcher.server"],
      "env": {
        "AI_PROTOCOL_PATH": "/path/to/ai-…
