MCP.Pizza Chef: runebookai

Tome is a free desktop app for Mac and Windows that puts a chat window in front of whichever model you like: Ollama or LM Studio running on your own machine, or Gemini and OpenAI in the cloud. Adding tools is a button rather than a config file, and it draws on the Smithery directory of thousands of ready-made ones. You can also schedule a prompt to run hourly or at a set time each day. It is still labelled a technical preview, with the most recent release in October 2025.

Tome is a desktop app that lets anyone harness the magic of LLMs and MCP. Download Tome, connect any local or remote LLM and hook it up to thousands of MCP servers to create your own magical AI-powered spellbook.

What is MCP? MCP stands for Model Context Protocol and lets your LLM access tools - like search engines, your filesystem, or APIs like Scryfall or Atlassian
