Overview

What is MCP-ORTools?

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation using Google OR-Tools for constraint solving. Designed for use with Large Language Models through standardized constraint model specification.

How to use MCP-ORTools?

Install the package via pip install git+https://github.com/Jacck/mcp-ortools.git, then configure it as an MCP server in Claude Desktop by adding the server entry to claude_desktop_config.json with command python -m mcp_ortools.server. Models are submitted in JSON format with variables, constraints, and an optional objective.

FAQ from MCP-ORTools

What solver does MCP-ORTools use?

It uses Google OR-Tools CP‑SAT solver for constraint satisfaction and optimization.

How are models specified?

Models are specified in JSON with three sections: variables (name and domain), constraints (OR‑Tools method syntax), and an optional objective (linear expression and maximize/minimize flag).
