Description: Implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Users can start
    'R'-based servers, serving functions as tools for large language
    models to call before responding to the user in MCP-compatible apps
    like 'Claude Desktop' and 'Claude Code', with options to run those
    tools inside of interactive 'R' sessions. On the other end, when 'R'
    is the client via the 'ellmer' package, users can register tools from
    third-party MCP servers to integrate additional context into chats.
