FAQ from Wandering RAG
What dependencies are required?
You need a running Qdrant server (a Docker Compose file is provided) and a .env file with your configuration (e.g., Markdown folder paths).
How do I configure Wandering RAG for Claude Desktop?
Add an entry to the mcpServers object in Claude Desktop’s config, pointing the command to your checkout’s wandering-rag script with arguments ["mcp", "run-server"] and setting the PATH environment variable to include ~/.local/bin.
Is Notion indexing fully supported?
Notion commands are listed as “WIP” (work in progress); only notion index is available, and its maturity is not stated.
Where is the indexed data stored?
Data is stored in Qdrant, a vector database that runs locally via Docker.
What file formats can be indexed?
The README explicitly shows support for Markdown files (via md index) and mentions Obsidian vaults (which are Markdown‑based). No other formats are confirmed as working.
