🔌 Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Connect AI assistants like Cursor and Claude Desktop to your OpenRAG knowledge base:

Quick Example (Cursor/Claude Desktop config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openrag": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["openrag-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "OPENRAG_URL": "http://localhost:3000",
        "OPENRAG_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

The MCP server provides tools for RAG-enhanced chat, semantic search, and settings management.
