Under active development
This is part of personal project to create a conversational Business Insights tool. It is a practical way for me to learn MCP servers, and how best to represent Genesys Cloud's Platform APIs in a way that can be easily consumed by LLMs.
There will be a lot of changes, and I will be sure to share my learnings in my newsletter.
