Four part blog series, start here: https://www.lorenstew.art/blog/llm-tools-1-chatbot-to-agent

Full application with authentication and streaming is all set up. All you need is an Open Router API key. Then update the logic in the MCP servers to suit your needs. You'll have your own system up and running quickly.

Looks good. Do you have an online demo or something?

I don't have anything deployed bc it uses AI which costs money. If you get yourself an Open Router API key you can use that in the .env files. There are instructions to get the apps running locally; it should be straightforward but let me know if you have troubles
