Thank you for hints but the answer is about the same as I can find online - it just works with existing tools like Claude app or Cursor or Cline, but I specifically want to understand the mechanisms used and how I can take advantage of MCP servers using _local_ llms.

What’s wrong with the official MCP website? It guides you through building a server and an LLM-powered client. You can just have your local LLM operate the client and you’re set.
