Clef MCP Overview

clef-mcp MCP server runs Cloudflare’s Clef-Flash decision model locally and exposes structured judgments through the `clef_decide` MCP tool. Inputs contain factual state plus typed choice, score, or yes/no questions, and outputs provide strict JSON distributions instead of generated prose. It also classifies JSONL or CSV records with reusable YAML profiles through its CLI, including threshold-based review results. Reach for it when an agent or batch workflow needs offline classification, explicit uncertainty, and deterministic single-pass scoring.

Primary Use Cases for Clef MCP:
  • Classify support tickets into routing labels
  • Evaluate production or operational situations locally
  • Route uncertain records for human review
  • Batch-process JSONL and CSV datasets
