Unichat MCP Server

Overview

Unichat MCP Server provides a unified interface to interact with multiple AI providers through the Model Context Protocol. It supports sending requests to OpenAI, MistralAI, Anthropic, xAI, Google AI, DeepSeek, Alibaba, and Inception using a single consistent interface.

Installation

For Claude Desktop

You can install Unichat MCP Server in two ways:

Option 1: Manual Installation

1. Add the following configuration to your Claude Desktop config file:
   • On MacOS: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   • On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

"mcpServers": {
  "unichat-mcp-server": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
      "unichat-mcp-server"
    ],
    "env": {
      "UNICHAT_MODEL": "SELECTED_UNICHAT_MODEL",
      "UNICHAT_API_KEY": "YOUR_UNICHAT_API_KEY"
    }
  }
}

Option 2: Using Smithery

For automatic installation via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install unichat-mcp-server --client claude

Configuration

You need to configure the following environment variables:

• UNICHAT_MODEL: The model you want to use. A list of supported models can be found in the unichat models.py file.
• UNICHAT_API_KEY: Your API key for the selected model's provider.

Example configuration for using OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini:

"env": {
  "UNICHAT_MODEL": "gpt-4o-mini",
  "UNICHAT_API_KEY": "YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY"
}

Usage

Once installed, you can use Unichat through:

1. The general-purpose unichat tool for sending any messages to the configured AI provider
2. Predefined prompts for common code-related tasks

Debugging

For debugging issues with the MCP server, you can use the MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv --directory PATH_TO_YOUR_PROJECT_DIRECTORY/unichat-mcp-server run unichat-mcp-server

This will display a URL you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
