What is Otter Bridge?

Otter Bridge is a lightweight, flexible MCP server that connects applications to various Large Language Model providers. It provides a clean, composable interface for interacting with LLMs, currently supporting Ollama with planned expansion to ChatGPT and Claude. Designed for developers building agent workflows, it follows Anthropic’s principles of simplicity and composability.

How to use Otter Bridge?

Install prerequisites (Ollama and uv), clone the repository, install dependencies with uv add -r requirements.txt, copy .env.example to .env, and configure environment variables. Start the server manually with uv run server.py or automatically via MCP clients like Claude Desktop (add the server to the desktop configuration). Two tools are available: chat (send messages to LLMs) and list_models (retrieve available model information).

Key features of Otter Bridge

Provider-agnostic design (currently Ollama, ChatGPT and Claude planned)
Simple, composable architecture inspired by effective agent patterns
Lightweight server built with FastMCP
Easy model management and retrieval of model capabilities
Configurable via environment variables (OLLAMA_BASE_URL, DEFAULT_MODEL)

Use cases of Otter Bridge

Integrate a local LLM (Ollama) into any MCP-compatible application
Build custom agent workflows that switch between providers as they become available
Prototype LLM-powered features using a fast, local server before moving to cloud APIs
Seamlessly connect Claude Desktop with Ollama models for on-premise AI assistance
