Proving Ground

The MCP Proving Ground Client is a Python-based client for testing custom MCP servers, designed to avoid message limits encountered with other clients like Claude Desktop. It connects to MCP servers specified in a configuration file, provides a chat interface for interaction, and includes logging capabilities for debugging purposes. The client supports a sample weather server for testing and experimentation.
