MCP Servers

ilo can connect to any MCP server, with tools type-checked end-to-end before execution.

Configuration

Create an mcp.json file:

JSON

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "myserver": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["server.js"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Usage

Shell

ilo --mcp mcp.json program.ilo funcname args

MCP tools become callable functions in your ilo program, with types verified at load time.

See examples/mcp.json in the ilo repo for a working example.
