## Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as [LLM](https://llm.datasette.io/):

```bash
llm install llm-tools-mcp
```

> [!WARNING]
> It's recommended to use the `--ta` flag and approve each tool execution.

1. Create `mcp.json` file in `~/.llm-tools-mcp`.

           "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem",
           "~/demo"
         ]
       }
     }
   }
   ```
    
2. List available tools.

   > so tools loaded as part of MCP won't be visible. 

   ```sh
   llm tools list
   ```

3. Run `llm` with tools.

   ```sh
   llm --ta -T MCP "what files are in the demo directory? show me contents of one of the files (…
