Converse MCP Enhanced

Multi-model AI conversation MCP for Claude Desktop. Seamlessly integrate with GPT-4, Gemini, xAI, Perplexity, and local models via Ollama. Achieve 80-95% cost savings through intelligent routing and local model prioritization.

🌟 Features

• 10+ AI Models: GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, xAI Grok, Perplexity, Ollama
• 80-95% Cost Savings: Smart routing prioritizes local models via Ollama
• Parallel Processing: Query multiple models simultaneously for consensus
• Web Search Integration: Real-time information via Perplexity Sonar
• Conversation Memory: Persistent context across sessions
• Smart Fallbacks: Automatic failover to ensure reliability
• Zero Setup Ollama: Auto-detection and configuration

🚀 Supported Models

API Models

• OpenAI: GPT-4, GPT-3.5 Turbo
• Anthropic: Claude 3 Opus, Sonnet, Haiku
• Google: Gemini Pro, Gemini Ultra
• xAI: Grok-1, Grok-2
• Perplexity: Sonar (with web search)

Local Models (via Ollama)

• Llama 3 (8B, 70B)
• Mistral, Mixtral
• CodeLlama
• Phi-2
• Neural Chat
• Any Ollama-compatible model

💰 Cost Optimization Strategy

Priority Order (Highest to Lowest):
1. Ollama local models (FREE) - ALWAYS FIRST
2. Intelligent model selection based on query
3. API models only as fallback

Result: 100% FREE operation when Ollama available

🧠 Smart Model Selection (v1.1.0)

The system automatically selects the optimal Ollama model:

• Simple queries (<50 chars) → phi3:mini (fastest)
• Code-related → codellama:7b
• Complex queries (>200 chars) → qwen2.5-coder:32b
• Default → llama3.2:3b (balanced)

📦 Installation

Via NPM (Recommended)

npm install -g converse-mcp-enhanced

Manual Installation

git clone https://github.com/justmy2satoshis/converse-mcp-enhanced.git
cd converse-mcp-enhanced
npm install

🔧 Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "converse": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["C:\\path\\to\\converse-mcp-enhanced\\src\\server.js"],
      "env": {
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-...",
        "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "...",
        "XAI_API_KEY": "...",
        "PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "...",
        "OLLAMA_HOST": "http://localhost:11434"
      }
    }
  }
}

📖 Usage Examples

Single Model Query

const response = await chat({
  model: "auto",  // Automatic model selection
  prompt: "Explain quantum computing",
  temperature: 0.7
});

Multi-Model Consensus

const consensus = await consensus({
  models: ["gpt-4", "gemini-pro", "llama3"],
  prompt: "Should we use microservices architecture?",
  enable_cross_feedback: true
});

Web Search Integration

const results = await chat({
  model: "perplexity",
  prompt: "Latest developments in AI safety",
  use_websearch: true
});

Cost-Optimized Query

const response = await chat({
  model: "auto",
  prompt: "Generate unit tests for this function",
  prefer_local: true,  // Prioritize Ollama models
  max_cost: 0.01      // Cost limit in USD
});

💡 Use Cases
