About slac-mcp
slac-mcp exposes the Simple Logic & Arithmetic Compiler (SLAC) as an MCP server for developers who need expression evaluation in LLM workflows. It provides evaluation and a full language reference.
Key features
- 01Compile and evaluate SLAC expressions
- 02Provide the complete syntax reference
- 03Return Rust Display or JSON output
Use cases
- 01Evaluate logic or arithmetic expressions from an agent
- 02Look up SLAC operator and function syntax
MCP support
The server provides `evaluate` and `get_syntax` tools to MCP clients over stdio.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

From the project READMEslac-mcp
MCP server exposing SLAC (Simple Logic & Arithmetic Compiler) as tools for LLM agents.
Tools
| Tool | Parameters | Description |
|---|---|---|
evaluate | expression: string | Compiles and evaluates a SLAC expression, returns the result |
get_syntax | none | Returns the full SLAC language reference (syntax, operators, functions, examples) |
Usage
cargo run
The server communicates over stdio using the Model Context Protocol.
Output Format
By default, evaluate returns the Rust Display representation of the result.
Set OUTPUT_FORMAT=JSON to get serialized JSON instead
With MCP Inspector
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector cargo run
Example expressions
1 + 2
max(10, 20) + 1
'hello' + ' ' + 'world'
len('test') > 2 ? 'long' : 'short'
Development
cargo build
cargo run
Requires Rust 1.85+ (edition 2024).

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
