Your First JavaScript AI Agent
summary
A minimal, runnable recipe that actually connects JavaScript to an LLM: Node.js + a local Olama server, ~50 lines of code for a back‑and‑forth chat, and a tested example wiring an Llama 3.21B model to a simple REPL. It shows the OAuth steps and a hacked mapping to make an MCP server with Google Calendar list, create and update events, notes performance on an older machine, and reports it works end to end.
