Coala Client

Part of the coala ecosystem. CLI for chat with OpenAI-compatible LLMs (OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama) and MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. Supports importing CWL toolsets as MCP servers, importing skills.

Config paths

• MCP config and toolsets: ~/.config/coala/mcps/
  • mcp_servers.json — server definitions
  • <toolset>/ — per-toolset dirs with run_mcp.py and CWL files
• Skills: ~/.config/coala/skills/ (one subfolder per imported source)
• Env: ~/.config/coala/env (optional; key=value for providers and MCP env)

Quick start

1. Init (first time)
   coala init — creates ~/.config/coala/mcps/mcp_servers.json and env.

2. Set API key
   e.g. export OPENAI_API_KEY=... or export GEMINI_API_KEY=.... Ollama needs no key.
