Here’s a quick preview of building the JAR and running an MCP server 🚀
Notice in the logs:
👉 Gemini making two tool calls
👉 The Agent executing them and returning results
This is MCP in action — from build to real tool usage ⚙️

This past weekend I led a workshop on MCP in Kotlin 🧪
at the @254androiddevs & @kotlinkenya meetup
We built:
MCP servers
Clients
Tool-calling systems
Gemini Agent
Big idea:
👉 LLMs are frozen in time—MCP lets them act in the present

🚨Someone just open sourced a computer that works when the entire internet goes down.
It's called Project N.O.M.A.D.
A self-contained offline survival server with AI, Wikipedia, maps, medical references, and full education courses.
No internet. No cloud. No subscription. It just works.
Here's what's packed inside:
→ A local AI assistant powered by Ollama (works fully offline)
→ All of Wikipedia, downloadable and searchable
→ Offline maps of any region you choose
→ Medical references and survival guides
→ Full Khan Academy courses with progress tracking
→ Encryption and data analysis tools via CyberChef
→ Document upload with semantic search (local RAG)
Here's the wildest part:
A solar panel, a battery, a mini PC, and a WiFi access point. That's it. That's your entire off-grid knowledge station. 15 to 65 watts of power. Works from a cabin, an RV, a sailboat, or a bunker.
Companies sell "prepper drives" with static PDFs for $185. This gives you a full AI brain, an entire encyclopedia, and real courses for free.
One command to install.
