What is MCP Server and Tools?
MCP Server and Tools is a project designed to enable seamless interaction between large language models (LLMs) and real-world data, databases, and current news, leveraging the Educhain library for AI-driven educational tools.
How to use MCP Server and Tools?
To use MCP, install the Educhain library and set up the necessary APIs. Run the main file main.py to start the server, and utilize the various tools for generating educational content.
Key features of MCP Server and Tools?
- Acts as a bridge between LLMs and external data sources.
- Real-time access to databases and dynamic information.
- Tools for generating MCQs, lesson plans, and flashcards.
Use cases of MCP Server and Tools?
- Generating multiple-choice questions for quizzes.
- Preparing structured lesson plans for educators.
- Creating flashcards for effective study sessions.
FAQ from MCP Server and Tools?
- What is the Educhain library?
Educhain is the core library used to build the MCP Server and Tools, facilitating the generation of educational content.
- Can I use different LLMs with MCP?
Yes! MCP provides the flexibility to switch between different LLM providers as per your requirements.
- Is there support available for using MCP?
Yes, for questions or support, you can contact the author at pratikgond2005@gmail.com.
MCP Server and Tools
MCP(Model Context Protocol) helps you build agents and complex workflows on top of LLMs. LLMs frequently need to integrate with data and tools, and MCP provides:
- We can update the LLM for current or relevant data that has not yet be known by LLM
- A growing list of pre-built integrations that your LLM can directly plug into.
- The flexibility to switch between LLM providers and vendors.
- Best practices for securing your data within your infrastructure.

Overview
MCP runs on STDIO, where standarized input is given to server and it return standarized output and these are managed by client. MCP Server and Tools is a project designed to enable seamless interaction between large language models (LLMs) or AI assistants and real-world data, databases, and current news. By leveraging the Educhain library, this project provides a robust framework for AI-driven educational tools and services.
Features
MCP Server
- Acts as a bridge between LLMs and external data sources.
- Enables real-time access to databases, news, and other dynamic information.
MCP Tools in this project
Currently the tools rely on Groq API and Open Source models but if we want we can use any number of LLM's as per requiremnet
- MCQ Generator: Automatically generates multiple-choice questions based on input topic and number of MCQ needed moreover we can also provide Extra Information or direction that guides the MCQ generation process
- Lesson Plan Generator: Creates structured lesson plans tailored to specific topics or requirements.
- Flashcard Generator: Produces flashcards for effective learning and revision.
Flow of the project
After installation of Educhain library and setting up API's. I made the educhain clinet using LLama model. Then MCP tools were initialized using asynchronus functions with proper docString so that LLM can choose proper tool and a outpur is generated and returned to LLM for content generation.
Use Case
This project allows AI assistants, such as Claude Desktop(MCP host here), to utilize MCP Tools for educational purposes. For example:
- Generating MCQs for quizzes.
- Preparing lesson plans for teachers or students.
- Creating flashcards for study sessions.
Technology Stack
