# LLM Context.py (MCP server)

> LLM Context.py is an MCP server that adds developer tools to AI assistants such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor. Share code with LLMs via Model Context Protocol or clipboard. It has 307 GitHub stars, is released under the Apache-2.0 license and runs locally with uvx llm-context.

Context curation your coding agent does for itself. lc-init installs a skill that teaches the agent to work out which files a task actually needs, write that down as a composable rule, check the rule against the codebase, and pack the result — for its own context, for a chat you paste into, or for a sub-agent it dispatches.
