Phase 10 "Cleanup & Production Polish" is now complete. All LLM
interactions now go through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), removing
direct provider dependencies from CLI/TUI.
## Major Changes
### MCP Architecture
- All providers (local and cloud Ollama) now use RemoteMcpClient
- Removed owlen-ollama dependency from owlen-tui
- MCP LLM server accepts OLLAMA_URL environment variable for cloud providers
- Proper notification handling for streaming responses
- Fixed response deserialization (McpToolResponse unwrapping)
### Code Cleanup
- Removed direct OllamaProvider instantiation from TUI
- Updated collect_models_from_all_providers() to use MCP for all providers
- Updated switch_provider() to use MCP with environment configuration
- Removed unused general config variable
### Documentation
- Added comprehensive MCP Architecture section to docs/architecture.md
- Documented MCP communication flow and cloud provider support
- Updated crate breakdown to reflect MCP servers
### Security & Performance
- Path traversal protection verified for all resource operations
- Process isolation via separate MCP server processes
- Tool permissions controlled via consent manager
- Clean release build of entire workspace verified
## Benefits of MCP Architecture
1. **Separation of Concerns**: TUI/CLI never directly instantiates providers
2. **Process Isolation**: LLM interactions run in separate processes
3. **Extensibility**: New providers can be added as MCP servers
4. **Multi-Transport**: Supports STDIO, HTTP, and WebSocket
5. **Tool Integration**: MCP servers expose tools to LLMs
This completes Phase 10 and establishes a clean, production-ready architecture
for future development.
