- Why I built it
I wanted a clean, Rails-friendly way to add AI capabilities without writing boilerplate for each provider. The existing MCP implementations were Python-focused, so I built this for the Ruby community.
- The ActiveRecord storage (just released in v0.3.0) lets you store conversations in your existing Rails database.
- What is it? Think of MCP as "REST for LLMs" - it standardizes how apps talk to AI models.
My implementation brings this to Ruby/Rails with:
Provider adapters for OpenAI & Anthropic (just add your API key)
Persistent storage options (memory, Redis, ActiveRecord)
Streaming responses for dynamic UIs
File handling & tool calling support
*Rails integration with just a few lines of code
