MCP ArcKnowledge

How it works?

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for your custom webhook endpoints (knowledgebase).

With this you can you can easily manage and query your list of knowledge base(webhook endpoints). You can add new document sources by registering their URLs, and optionally provide a description and API key.

You can also list all the registered document sources and view their details.

When you're ready to ask/search, you can query the knowledge base with a text question , specifying which sources to search or leaving it blank to search all of them.

The tool will then aggregate the results from the queried sources and provide them to you.

Prerequisites

• Go
• Python 3.6+
• Anthropic Claude Desktop app (or Cursor or Cline)
• UV (Python package manager), install with curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

Concept

Imagine being able to bridge 1 unified setup where you can connect all your custom knowledge base endpoints webhook in one configuration, eliminating the need for multiple MCP servers.

Demo

See mcp cursor video

Setup Installation

1.Clone repo

2. Configure endpoints Make a copy or changeknowledge_document_sources.json. See sample_endpoint folder for references on current knowledge endpoints api schema supported. You may change the code as you wish to fit your need.
3. Connect to the MCP serverCopy the below json with the appropriate {{PATH}} values:
   { "mcpServers": { "mcp-arcknowledge": { "command": "cmd /c uv", "args": [ "--directory", "C:/Users/Acer/OneDrive/GitHub/YourDrive", "run", "main.py" ], "env": { "DOCUMENT_SOURCES_PATH": "C:/Users/Acer/OneDrive/GitHub/YourDrive/testcustomother.json" } } } }

For Claude, save this as claude_desktop_config.json in your Claude Desktop configuration directory at:

For Cursor, save this as mcp.json in your Cursor configuration directory at:

For cline, save this as cline_mcp_settings.json in your configuration

4. Restart Client: Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline / Windsurf Open and restart your client ide for mcp. eg Claude/Cursor/Cline/etc

Windows Compatibility

If you're running this project on Windows, be aware that go-sqlite3 requires CGO to be enabled in order to compile and work properly. By default, CGO is disabled on Windows, so you need to explicitly enable it and have a C compiler installed.

Steps to get it working:

1. Install a C compiler
   We recommend using MSYS2 to install a C compiler for Windows. After installing MSYS2, make sure to add the ucrt64\bin folder to your PATH.

Architecture Overview

This application consists of simple main component:

Python MCP Server (main.py): A Python server implementing the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which provides standardized tools client to interact with data and invoke api call.

Data Storage

• All storage is runtime local main python server.

Technical Details

1. Client sends requests to the Python MCP server
2. The MCP server lookup its runtime config knowledge base.
3. Then based on your queries, it calls your knowledge base endpoint api,

Troubleshooting

• If you encounter permission issues when running uv, you may need to add it to your PATH or use the full path to the executable.
• Make sure both the Go application and the Python server are running for the integration to work properly.

Starting the Server

1. Config Run the server in development mode:

Or install it for use with Claude:

Available Tools

1. Default Loads knowledge list from knowledge_document_sources.json

Default loads knowledge sources from config

You may Load custom knowledge from mcp.json environment config

2. List all currently registered knowledge sources

Shows and explains the list of all registered knowledge sources.

3. Add New Knowledge Document Source

Add new arcknowledge endpoint url document sources. Provide url, description purpose and apikey(if any)

4. Querying Specific Knowledge Doc Source

Query the arcknowledge base built from these sources using query_knowledge_base.

Tool Functions

1. add_new_knowledge_document_source(url: str, description:str = None, apikey:str = None) -> str
   • Registers a new document source URL, optionally with a description and API key.
   • Returns: Confirmation message with the new source ID.
2. list_knowledge_document_sources() -> Dict[str, Dict[str, str]]
   • Lists all registered document sources.
   • Returns: Dictionary mapping source IDs to their details (URL, description, API key).
3. query_knowledge_base(query: str, source_ids: List[str] = [], image: str = '') -> str
   • Queries specified document sources (or all if none specified) with a text query and optional image data.
   • Returns: Aggregated results from the queried sources.

Development

Crucial filesProject Structure

Cursor AI MCP Configuration

1. Create an mcp.json file in your project root:

2. Configure Cursor AI:
   • Open Cursor AI settings
   • Navigate to the MCP section
   • Add the path to your mcp.json file
   • Restart Cursor AI to apply changes
3. Verify Configuration:

Adding New Features

1. Define new models in main.py
2. Add new tools using the @mcp.tool() decorator
3. Update documentation as needed
