This project is a template for connecting AI assistants like Claude to custom tools that live on the internet. Instead of just relying on what an AI already knows, you can use this to give the AI new abilities, like fetching a random webcomic or doing math, while keeping those tools hosted on your own web server. The setup includes a secure login screen so not just anyone can access your tools. It works by running a small server program on Cloudflare, a popular web hosting platform. The server speaks a standard language called the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which is essentially a common language that lets AI models discover and use external tools. When you ask the AI to do something new, it reaches out over the internet to your server, logs in with a password, and uses the tool you built. This is most useful for developers or tinkerers who want to build their own custom AI tools and connect them to their desktop AI apps. For example, you could write a tool that checks your company's database for a customer's order status, host it using this template, and then ask Claude to look up that status without ever leaving your chat window. The project comes with a couple of example tools to get you started, including a math function and one that fetches a random comic from the web. The README notes that if you want to use the included code for connecting your own programs to the server, you might need to update a few placeholder sections to match the specific software library you are using.
