### Description (declared)

# MCP server for the Ersilia Model Hub

A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server built on the
official FastMCP SDK. It lets MCP clients search the Ersilia Model Hub catalog
and fetch, serve, and run its AI/ML models, all over stdio.

| Primitive | Name                  | Description                                                  |
| --------- | --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| Tool      | `search_model`        | Searches the Ersilia model hub catalog by keyword.          |
| Tool      | `fetch_model`         | Downloads a model to the local machine.                     |
| Tool      | `check_model_fetched` | Reports whether a model has already been fetched.           |
| Tool      | `serve_model`         | Starts a fetched model so it can accept predictions.        |
| Tool      | `generate_inputs`     | Samples example inputs from a served model.                 |
| Tool      | `predict`             | Runs predictions with a served model and writes a CSV.      |
| Tool      | `close_model`         | Stops a served model and frees its resources.               |
| Tool      | `delete_model`        | Deletes a fetched model from local storage.                 |

A typical workflow is `search_model` → `fetch_model` → `serve_model` → `predict`
→ `close_model`. You can optionally call `generate_inputs` after serving to
sample example inputs to feed into `predict`, and `delete_model` to remove the
model from local storage.

## Installation

Ensure you have the following installed:
* [conda](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/install/index.html#regular-installation) (miniconda is fine)
* [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)
* [git](https://git-scm.com/install/source)

Clone the repository locally using git:
```bash
git clone git@github.com:ersilia-os/ersilia-mcp.git
```

Create a new virtual conda environment, activate it, and install the necessary packages:
