Data flow overview

  2. The client receives the available tools from Jama Connect MCP.

  3. The client shares that tool information with the customer-managed LLM.

  4. When the LLM needs Jama Connect data or needs to perform an action, it sends a tool call through the client.

  5. The client sends the tool call to Jama Connect MCP.

  6. Jama Connect MCP performs the authorized request in Jama Connect.

  7. Jama Connect returns the requested data or results to Jama Connect MCP.

  8. Jama Connect MCP returns the results to the client.

  9. The client provides the results to the customer-managed LLM, which uses it to continue processing and complete the response.
