PAL
PAL MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that functions as a Provider Abstraction Layer, enabling users to orchestrate multiple AI models and CLI tools within a single workflow and context window. It provides tools like `clink` for connecting external AI CLIs (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, etc.) directly into workflows, launching isolated subagents for specialized tasks, and maintaining seamless context continuity across different models and providers. The server solves the problem of context fragmentation and model switching inefficiency by unifying diverse AI tools and models into a cohesive development environment.
