#Nexus-MCP ( Foundry-Reverse )

Newer Foundry MCP reverse-engineered to work on Ollama

A fully local, open-source alternative to the Azure AI Foundry MCP Server, powered entirely by Ollama.
No Azure subscription, no API keys, no cloud required.

Features

Category

Tools

Health

health_check

Model Management

list_models, get_model_info, pull_model, delete_model, list_running_models, compare_models

Inference

generate, chat

Evaluation

evaluate_response, evaluate_agent

Knowledge / RAG

Plus MCP Resources (ollama://models, ollama://running, ollama://indexes) and reusable Prompts (summarize, rag_answer, code_review).

Related MCP server: mcplex

Requirements

  • Python 3.12+

  • Ollama running locally (ollama serve)

  • uv (recommended) or pip

Quick Start

# 1. Clone
git clone https://github.com/deadSwank001/Foundry-Reverse.git
cd Foundry-Reverse

# 2. Copy and edit configuration
cp .env.example .env

# 3. Run the MCP server (stdio transport)
uv run foundry-reverse

VS Code / Copilot Integration

Copy mcp.json to your VS Code workspace .vscode/mcp.json (or user-level MCP config), then restart VS Code.
