MCPtoAI for Linux

Chat with AI on your Linux server from the MCPtoAI web app, your phone or the terminal. Your AI provider keys stay on the server, and every action that changes something asks for your approval first.

• Remote chat — talk to your server from app.mcptoai.com or your phone.
• Your choice of model — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, local models and more; switch any time.
• MCP tools — connect remote or local MCP servers.
• Long-running jobs — start training runs or builds, follow their progress, stop them from anywhere.
• Terminal chat — mcptoai chat works over SSH, no browser needed.
