## Inspiration and Acknowledgements
The foundational inspiration for this project came from the original `netbox-mcp-server` developed by NetBox Labs and the broader Model Context Protocol ecosystem.
* **Original Project:** [https://github.com/netboxlabs/netbox-mcp-server](https://github.com/netboxlabs/netbox-mcp-server)
* **Model Context Protocol:** [https://modelcontextprotocol.io/](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/)
This project extends the MCP pattern to Unimus network management systems, enabling Large Language Models to interact with Unimus infrastructure through natural language. We are grateful to NetBox Labs for pioneering the network management MCP pattern and to Anthropic for developing the Model Context Protocol standard.
