ZAP RAG MCP Server
Provides access to ZAP's RAG search modes (PLAIN, HYBRID, HYBRID_RERANK) for retrieving code context from a local SQLite index built by the ZAP IntelliJ plugin.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@ZAP RAG MCP ServerSearch for 'user authentication' using hybrid_rerank mode"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
ZAP RAG MCP Server
Standalone Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes only ZAP’s RAG search modes for other agents (Kilo, Cursor, Claude Desktop, Continue, etc.).
Works with the SQLite index built by the ZAP IntelliJ plugin (rag.db).
Tool | Description |
| DB health, chunk/embedding counts, models, modes |
| Semantic search: PLAIN / HYBRID / HYBRID_RERANK |
Read-only. No write tools, no agent loop — retrieval only.
Modes
Mode | Behavior | Needs |
PLAIN | Cosine over code-chunk embeddings | Index + embeddings |
HYBRID | Weighted class summaries + code | Class summaries at index time |
HYBRID_RERANK | Hybrid pool → LLM rerank | Chat API key |
