Talk to your Fedora system with the linux-mcp-server! - Fedora Magazine

Generative AI systems are changing the way people interact with computers. MCP (model context protocol) is a way that enables LLMs to run commands and use tools to enable live, conversational interaction with systems. Using the new linux-mcp-server, let’s walk through how you can talk with your Fedora system for understanding your system and getting […]

Users points out in comments how the LLM recommends APT on Fedora which is clearly wrong. I can’t tell if OP is responding with LLM as well–it would be really embarrassing if so.

PS: Debian is really cool btw :)

    Yeah, I suppose so. I find plenty to hate about the way companies and too many individual apps talk about LLMs. I really hate that it’s one of the metrics my employer looks at. I always hate how wasteful speculative bubbles like this are.

    But maybe this isn’t the place for me since I see some good use cases and appreciate the few times someone does it right.

    • I hate how companies like Google and Microsoft are putting LLMs everywhere, making things worse for everyone, forcing everyone to deal with it
    • I find it strange that there’s an LLM in my car but it Carrie’s a decent conversation and it can’t actually do anything
    • I like this approach of building the mcp server. Keeping it read only, keeping it optional, and leaving the actual LLM open. I also like Apples approach where they seem to care about privacy, about executing on device, and about taking their time to put it in useful places
