Overview

What is MCP RAG?

MCP RAG is an AI-powered chat system built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) client-server architecture. It connects to multiple specialized MCP servers—Filesystem, Slack, and Brave Search—to give Claude access to local files, Slack conversations, and real-time web search. This system is for users who want a single interface that automatically retrieves context from diverse sources without manual server selection.

How to use MCP RAG?

First, install uv (see README for commands). Then clone the repository, create a .env file with your ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, SLACK_BOT_TOKEN, SLACK_TEAM_ID, and BRAVE_API_KEY. Create a virtual environment and install dependencies using uv venv and uv sync. Finally, run the client with uv run client.py path/to/dir/you/want/to/use.
