MCP-Ragdocs

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables semantic search and retrieval of documentation using a vector database (Qdrant). This server allows you to add documentation from URLs or local files and then search through them using natural language queries.

Quick Install Guide

Install the package globally:

npm install -g @qpd-v/mcp-server-ragdocs

Start Qdrant (using Docker):

docker run -p 6333:6333 -p 6334:6334 qdrant/qdrant

Ensure Ollama is running with the default embedding model:
```
ollama pull nomic-embed-text
```

Add to your configuration file:

For Cline: %AppData%\Roaming\Code\User\globalStorage\saoudrizwan.claude-dev\settings\cline_mcp_settings.json
For Roo-Code: %AppData%\Roaming\Code\User\globalStorage\rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline\settings\cline_mcp_settings.json
For Claude Desktop: %AppData%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

        "QDRANT_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:6333",
        "EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "ollama",
        "OLLAMA_URL": "http://localhost:11434"
      }
    }
  }
}

Verify installation:

# Check Qdrant is running
curl http://localhost:6333/collections

# Check Ollama has the model
ollama list | grep nomic-embed-text

Version

Current version: 0.1.6

Features

Add documentation from URLs or local files
Store documentation in a vector database for semantic search
Search through documentation using natural language
List all documentation sources

Installation

Install globally using npm:

npm install -g @qpd-v/mcp-server-ragdocs

This will install the server in your global npm directory, which you'll need for the configuration steps below.

Requirements

Node.js 16 or higher
Qdrant (either local or cloud)
One of the following for embeddings:
- Ollama running locally (default, free)
- OpenAI API key (optional, paid)

Qdrant Setup Options

Option 1: Local Qdrant

Using Docker (recommended):

docker run -p 6333:6333 -p 6334:6334 qdrant/qdrant

Or download from Qdrant's website

Option 2: Qdrant Cloud

Create an account at Qdrant Cloud
Create a new cluster
Get your cluster URL and API key from the dashboard
Use these in your configuration (see Configuration section below)

Configuration

The server can be used with both Cline/Roo and Claude Desktop. Configuration differs slightly between them:

Cline Configuration

Add to your Cline settings file (%AppData%\Roaming\Code\User\globalStorage\saoudrizwan.claude-dev\settings\cline_mcp_settings.json) AND/OR Add to your Roo-Code settings file (%AppData%\Roaming\Code\User\globalStorage\rooveterinaryinc.roo-cline\settings\cline_mcp_settings.json):

Using npm global install (recommended):

{
		"mcpServers": {
				"ragdocs": {
						"command": "node",
      "args": ["C:/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules/@qpd-v/mcp-server-ragdocs/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "QDRANT_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:6333",
        "EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "ollama",
        "OLLAMA_URL": "http://localhost:11434"
      }
    }
  }
}

For OpenAI instead of Ollama:

{
		"mcpServers": {
				"ragdocs": {
						"command": "node",
      "args": ["C:/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/npm/node_modules/@qpd-v/mcp-server-ragdocs/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "QDRANT_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:6333",
        "EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "openai",
        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "your-openai-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Using local development setup:

{
		"mcpServers": {
				"ragdocs": {
						"command": "node",
						"args": ["PATH_TO_PROJECT/mcp-ragdocs/build/index.js"],
						"env": {
								"QDRANT_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:6333",
								"EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "ollama",
								"OLLAMA_URL": "http://localhost:11434"
						}
				}
		}
}
