# Phone-a-Friend MCP Server 🧠📞 An AI-to-AI consultation system that enables one AI to "phone a friend" (another AI) for critical thinking, long context reasoning, and complex problem solving via OpenRouter. ## The Problem 🤔 Sometimes an AI encounters complex problems that require: - **Deep critical thinking** beyond immediate capabilities - **Long context reasoning** with extensive information - **Multi-step analysis** that benefits from external perspective - **Specialized expertise** from different AI models ## The Solution � Phone-a-Friend MCP Server creates a **two-step consultation process**: 1. **Context + Reasoning**: Package all relevant context and send to external AI for deep analysis 2. **Extract Actionable Insights**: Process the reasoning response into usable format for the primary AI This enables AI systems to leverage other AI models as "consultants" for complex reasoning tasks. ## Architecture 🏗️ ``` Primary AI → Phone-a-Friend MCP → OpenRouter → External AI (O3, Claude, etc.) → Processed Response → Primary AI ``` **Sequential Workflow:** 1. `analyze_context` - Gather and structure all relevant context 2. `get_critical_thinking` - Send context to external AI via OpenRouter for reasoning 3. `extract_actionable_insights` - Process response into actionable format ## When to Use 🎯 **Ideal for:** - Complex multi-step problems requiring deep analysis - Situations needing long context reasoning (>100k tokens) - Cross-domain expertise consultation - Critical decision-making with high stakes - Problems requiring multiple perspectives ## Quick Start ⚡ Configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) using the JSON block below—no cloning or manual installation required.
