Major improvements to LiteLLM Discord bot with MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools support:
Features added:
- MCP tools discovery and integration with LiteLLM proxy
- Fetch and convert 40+ GitHub MCP tools to OpenAI format
- Tool calling flow with placeholder execution (pending MCP endpoint confirmation)
- Dynamic tool injection based on LiteLLM MCP server configuration
- Enhanced system prompt with tool usage guidance
- Added ENABLE_TOOLS environment variable for easy toggle
- Comprehensive debug logging for troubleshooting
Technical changes:
- Added httpx>=0.25.0 dependency for async MCP API calls
- Implemented get_available_mcp_tools() to query /v1/mcp/server and /v1/mcp/tools endpoints
- Convert MCP tool schemas to OpenAI function calling format
- Detect and handle tool_calls in model responses
- Added system_prompt.txt for customizable bot behavior
- Updated README with better documentation and setup instructions
- Created claude.md with detailed development notes and upgrade roadmap
Configuration:
- New ENABLE_TOOLS flag in .env to control MCP integration
- DEBUG_LOGGING for detailed execution logs
- System prompt file support for easy customization
Known limitations:
- Tool execution currently uses placeholders (MCP execution endpoint needs verification)
- Limited to 50 tools to avoid overwhelming the model
- Requires LiteLLM proxy with MCP server configured
Next steps:
- Verify correct LiteLLM MCP tool execution endpoint
- Implement actual tool execution via MCP proxy
- Test end-to-end GitHub operations through Discord
