How can I connect to an MCP agent locally using Python with a custom client (not Claude or Cursor)?

Hi Atlassian Community,

I’m experimenting with the new MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration for Atlassian products

My question:
👉 Are there any examples of sending and receiving MCP events in Python so I can integrate them with another LLM (e.g., Gemini or OpenAI) instead of Claude or Cursor?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @yogesh kn ,

As far as I know, there are no official Python SDK or code samples for MCP event handling.

However, I haven't played much with this to be honest, so I'm just going to move this to Rovo forum group as some experts from there might want to jump in on this 👀

Like, the best bet (at the moment) would be to ask Rovo to see what it will tell you when it comes to integration with other LLMs 🫣

Cheers,
Tobi
