Enhancement: Model Context Protocol (MCP) support

[karstennilsen]

What features would you like to see added?

Anthropic released Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Implement support for Anthropic’s newly announced Model Context Protocol (MCP) in LibreChat. MCP aims to standardize interactions with AI models, offering consistent and predictable behavior across different implementations. Integrating this protocol will enhance LibreChat’s interoperability, streamline interactions, and potentially allow broader compatibility with a increasing number of MCP servers.

More details

There are existing MCP-compliant servers available that can be self-hosted. These can be used when LibreChat is a MCP client. The example servers, hosted on GitHub, provide ready-to-use implementations of the Model Context Protocol for various use cases.

the moment mcp's are introduced, you get into this interesting orchestration question that needs to be solved by routers like litellm and aws's new multi-agent orchestrator https://awslabs.github.io/multi-agent-orchestrator/

I'm definitely interest in implementing this so I moved this to an issue: #4876
