What it does

Ollama MCP Bridge provides a seamless API layer in front of the Ollama API, allowing local LLMs to access tools from multiple MCP servers transparently. It intercepts /api/chat requests and manages the multi-round tool execution loop between the model and various MCP transports.

Tools

This is a bridge/proxy and does not provide its own tools; instead, it exposes all tools from any MCP servers configured in mcp-config.json (e.g., filesystem, weather, or custom servers).

Installation

Add the bridge to your local environment and configure your MCP servers in mcp-config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "example-server": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["some-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Run via Docker or pip: pip install ollama-mcp-bridge

Supported hosts

Confirmed for local Ollama deployments and any client that can point to an Ollama-compatible API endpoint.

Quick install

pip install ollama-mcp-bridge
