Hi There,

Is anyone working on an MCP layer for Node-RED?

Details:

What is Model Context Protocol (MCP)? How it simplifies AI integrations compared to APIs

TL;DR:

MCP seems to be a real-time interface for LLMs to access data and services on the fly.

it seems to be a form of API that is simpler for LLM (as opposed to something like JSON) to understanding. It seems to be standard practice that LLMs are now pre-trained on MCP so integration becomes simpler for all concerned.

So it would make sense for Node-RED to have an MCP for LLMs to control and discover instances of Node-RED.
