FAQ from RAG Documentation MCP Server
What environment variables are required?
You need OPENAI_API_KEY for embeddings generation, QDRANT_URL for your Qdrant vector database instance, and QDRANT_API_KEY for authenticating with Qdrant.
How do I search documentation?
Use the search_documentation tool with a natural language query and an optional limit (1–20, default 5) to receive ranked excerpts with context.
How can I add new documentation sources?
Use the extract_urls tool on a public webpage to find hyperlinks, optionally adding them to the processing queue. Then run the run_queue tool to index them.
