Model Council MCP Server

An MCP server that seats other LLMs at your table. Your assistant asks them, reads their answers as tool results, relays those answers back and forth for critique, and gives you one merged conclusion - inside a single normal conversation, with no copy-paste. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting this server to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "model-council-mcp"

An MCP server that seats other LLMs at your table.
