LMCP as a plugin or a connector, by AI client
LMCP is one MCP server, and each AI client has its own word and install path for it. Install the LMCP app first: its tools run on your computer.

The plugin (the MCP server, a rule and skills) is the public repository below. The shortest path skips that step: the LMCP installer adds LMCP to Cursor, and you enable local-mcp in Cursor’s MCP settings.
