umi-mcp

A Python MCP server that gives AI assistants live awareness of the machine they're running on.

Install it, point your AI client at it, and ask questions like "what's using the most memory?" or "have there been any service crashes recently?" — and get real answers.

Install

pip install umi-mcp
