Local Model Suitability MCP
Check if a task runs locally vs cloud. Save money on calls that don't need cloud inference.
Installation
Ajoutez ceci à la configuration MCP de votre client (Claude Desktop : claude_desktop_config.json ; Cursor : .cursor/mcp.json ; VS Code et les autres utilisent la même forme « mcpServers »).
claude mcp add --transport http local-model-suitability-mcp 'https://local-model-suitability-mcp-production.up.railway.app'
{
"mcpServers": {
"local-model-suitability-mcp": {
"type": "http",

Local Model Suitability MCP
Cloud inference is expensive. Everything that can run locally should.
This MCP server tells your agent — before every cloud API call — whether the task can be handled by a local model instead. Route to Ollama, LM Studio, or llama.cpp when you can. Only pay for cloud when you must.
The Tool
check_local_viability
Call this BEFORE every cloud inference call. If verdict is LOCAL, skip the cloud call entirely and route to your local model. Only use cloud when this tool returns CLOUD.
Inputs:
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
task | ✅ | The exact task you are about to send to a cloud model |
quality_threshold | Optional | PRODUCTION (default) / PROTOTYPE / BEST_EFFORT |
data_sensitivity | Optional | PUBLIC (default) / INTERNAL / CONFIDENTIAL |
CONFIDENTIAL forces LOCAL regardless of task complexity — data never leaves the machine.
