# MCP Jina Supabase RAG - Project Summary **Created**: 2025-11-25 **Status**: ✅ Initial implementation complete **Repository**: `/home/marty/repos/mcp-jina-supabase-rag` ## What We Built A lean, production-ready MCP server that combines **Jina AI** and **Crawl4AI** for fast documentation indexing to **Supabase** for RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation). ### Key Features ✅ **Smart URL Discovery** - Tries sitemap.xml first (fast, covers 80% of cases) - Falls back to Crawl4AI recursive crawling - Configurable discovery methods ✅ **Hybrid Content Extraction** - Jina AI Reader API (primary, 3-5x faster) - Crawl4AI browser automation (fallback) - Automatic method selection ✅ **Intelligent Chunking** - Header-aware splitting for markdown - Configurable chunk size and overlap - Maintains context across chunks ✅ **Vector Embeddings** - OpenAI text-embedding-3-small (1536 dimensions) - Batch processing for efficiency - Retry logic with exponential backoff ✅ **Supabase Storage** - pgvector for similarity search - Multi-project support via filtering - Automatic project tracking ## Architecture ``` User Command (/jina) ↓ URL Discovery Layer (sitemap → crawl) ↓ Content Extraction (Jina → Crawl4AI) ↓ Chunking (TextChunker) ↓ Embedding (OpenAI) ↓ Storage (Supabase + pgvector) ↓ Search (Vector Similarity) ``` ## File Structure ``` mcp-jina-supabase-rag/ ├── src/ │ ├── discovery/ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ └── url_discoverer.py # Sitemap + Crawl4AI discovery │ ├── extraction/ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ └── content_extractor.py # Jina + Crawl4AI extraction │ ├── storage/ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ └── supabase_store.py # Supabase operations │ ├── utils/ │ │ ├── __init__.py │ │ ├── chunking.py # Smart text chunking │ │ └── embeddings.py # OpenAI embeddings │ └── main.py # MCP server (FastMCP) ├── supabase_schema.sql # Database schema ├── .env.example # Environment template ├── pyproject.toml # Dependencies ├── README.md # Full documentation ├── QUICKSTART.md # 10-minute setup guide ├── SLASH_COMMAND.md # Slash command template └── LICENSE # MIT License ``` ## MCP Tools Implemented ### 1. `crawl_and_index` Crawl a documentation site and index to Supabase. **Parameters:** - `url_pattern`: URL or pattern (e.g., `https://docs.example.com/*`) - `project_name`: Project identifier - `discovery_method`: `auto`, `sitemap`, `crawl`, `manual` - `extraction_method`: `auto`, `jina`, `crawl4ai` ### 2. `search_documents` Search indexed documents using vector similarity. **Parameters:** - `query`: Search query text - `project_name`: Optional project filter - `limit`: Max results (1-20) ### 3. `list_projects` List all indexed projects with statistics. ### 4. `delete_project` Delete a project and all its documents. ## Usage Examples ### Slash Command ```bash # Basic indexing /jina https://docs.anthropic.com/claude/* anthropic-docs # With options /jina https://docs.example.com/* example-docs sitemap jina # Single page /jina https://docs.example.com/getting-started example-docs manual ``` ### Programmatic ```python await crawl_and_index( url_pattern="https://docs.supabase.com/docs/*", project_name="supabase-docs", discovery_method="auto", extraction_method="jina" ) results = await search_documents( query="How do I set up authentication?", project_name="supabase-docs", limit=5 ) ``` ## Differences from mcp-crawl4ai-rag | Aspect | mcp-crawl4ai-rag | mcp-jina-supabase-rag | |--------|------------------|------------------------| | **Scope** | Full-featured with Neo4j, knowledge graphs, etc. | Lean, focused on doc indexing | | **Discovery** | Recursive crawl only | Sitemap first, crawl fallback | | **Extraction** | Crawl4AI only | Jina primary, Crawl4AI fallback | | **Speed** | Slower (browser automation) | 3-5x faster (API-based) | | **Dependencies** | Heavy (Neo4j, sentence-transformers, etc.) | Light (core only) | | **Use Case** | Advanced RAG with hallucination detection | Fast documentation indexing | | **Complexity** | High | Low | ## Next Steps ### Immediate (Before First Use) 1. ✅ Set up Supabase project 2. ✅ Run `supabase_schema.sql` in SQL Editor 3. ✅ Configure `.env` with credentials 4. ✅ Install dependencies: `uv pip install -e .` 5. ✅ Run server: `python src/main.py` 6. ✅ Connect to Claude Code: `claude mcp add --transport sse jina-supabase http://localhost:8052/sse` 7. ✅ Create slash command: Copy `SLASH_COMMAND.md` to `~/.claude/commands/jina.md` ### Future Enhancements (Optional) #### Phase 1: Polish (1-2 hours) - [ ] Add progress indicators during long crawls - [ ] Improve error messages - [ ] Add retry logic for failed URLs - [ ] Better logging and debug mode #### Phase 2: Performance (2-3 hours) - [ ] Implement caching for embeddings - [ ] Add rate limit handling for APIs - [ ] Optimize batch sizes for Supabase inserts - [ ] Add concurrent URL processing #### Phase 3: Features (4-6 hours) - [ ] Add hybrid search (vector + keyword) - [ ] Implement reranking - [ ] Add metadata extraction (author, date, etc.) - [ ] Support for other embedding models - [ ] Local Ollama support #### Phase 4: Advanced (8+ hours) - [ ] Contextual embeddings (like old repo) - [ ] Incremental updates (only crawl new/changed pages) - [ ] Multi-language support - [ ] Custom chunking strategies - [ ] Analytics dashboard ## Dependencies ### Core - `mcp>=1.7.1` - MCP protocol - `crawl4ai>=0.6.2` - Browser automation - `supabase>=2.15.1` - Database client - `openai>=1.71.0` - Embeddings - `python-dotenv>=1.0.0` - Environment management - `httpx>=0.28.1` - HTTP client for Jina - `lxml>=5.3.0` - XML parsing for sitemaps ### External APIs - **Jina AI** (optional): Fast content extraction - **OpenAI**: Embeddings generation - **Supabase**: Vector database storage ## Configuration Options All configurable via `.env`: ```bash # Server HOST=0.0.0.0 PORT=8052 TRANSPORT=sse # APIs OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
