Ragie Model Context Protocol Server

What is Ragie Model Context Protocol Server?

The Ragie Model Context Protocol Server is an MCP server that provides AI models with access to Ragie’s knowledge base retrieval capabilities via a single “retrieve” tool. It is intended for developers integrating Ragie-powered knowledge retrieval into AI applications that support MCP.

How to use Ragie Model Context Protocol Server?

Install and run with npx using your Ragie API key: RAGIE_API_KEY=your_api_key npx @ragieai/mcp-server. Optionally, pass --description or --partition flags. Configure it in Cursor via an mcp.json file or a shell script, or in Claude Desktop via claude_desktop_config.json. The server listens on stdio for MCP protocol messages.

FAQ from Ragie Model Context Protocol Server

What does the “retrieve” tool do?

It searches the Ragie knowledge base for information matching a provided query and returns an array of text chunks, with optional reranking and recency bias.

What are the runtime requirements?

Node.js 18 or later and a valid Ragie API key (set as the RAGIE_API_KEY environment variable).

How do I configure it for Claude Desktop?

Create or edit claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/…, Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/…) with the npx command, API key, and optional partition ID, then restart Claude.

Is this server still needed?

No. Ragie now supports MCP natively as a streamable HTTP server. This project is deprecated in favor of that built-in support.

Can I limit which part of the knowledge base is searched?

Yes. Use the --partition command-line option or set the partition ID in the config to scope queries to a specific Ragie partition.
