About IBM wxflows
IBM wxflows is a tool for building, testing, and deploying AI tools that integrate with watsonx.ai Flows Engine using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The GitHub repository provides a step-by-step tutorial for setting up a wxflows project, including installing the CLI, deploying a project to a Flows Engine endpoint, and running an MCP server locally. The example project includes pre-configured integrations with Google Books and Wikipedia tools, allowing developers to quickly create AI applications that call external APIs. wxflows supports JavaScript/TypeScript via the wxflows SDK, environment variable management, and can be used with MCP clients such as Claude Desktop.
