Unified Dynamic MCP Server
Single MCP server with progressive discovery for 96-160x token reduction
Consolidates code understanding (Codanna), documentation (Context7), browser automation (Playwright), memory (Claude-mem), and knowledge graph (Graphiti+LadybugDB) into one unified server.
✨ NEW: Graphiti knowledge graph now supports Google Gemini! Use free Gemini API with embedded LadybugDB (no Docker required).
Features
✨ Progressive Discovery - 3-step pattern reduces tokens from 10,000+ to 50-200
🔧 Dynamic Tool Loading - Lazy load capabilities only when needed
🎯 5 Integrated Capabilities - Code, docs, browser, memory, knowledge graph
🚀 Git Submodules - Auto-update with git submodule update --remote
⚡ Fast - Sub-10ms symbol lookup (Codanna), embedded LadybugDB (no Docker)

Quick Start
# 1. Clone with submodules
git clone --recursive https://github.com/yourusername/unified-mcp.git
cd unified-mcp
# 2. Install dependencies (using uv - recommended)
uv pip install -r requirements.txt
# 3. Install Claude-mem plugin (required for memory capability)
# In Claude Code terminal:
/plugin marketplace add thedotmack/claude-mem
/plugin install claude-mem
# Then restart Claude Code
# 4. Add to Claude Code (replace /path/to/unified-mcp with actual path)
claude mcp add --transport stdio \
unified-mcp \
-- uv --directory /absolute/path/to/unified-mcp run server.py
# 5. For Graphiti + Google Gemini support (optional)
claude mcp add --transport stdio unified-mcp \
-e GRAPHITI_ENABLED=true \
-e GRAPHITI_LLM_PROVIDER=google_ai \
-e GRAPHITI_EMBEDDER_PROVIDER=google_ai \
-e GOOGLE_API_KEY=your-gemini-api-key-here \
-e GRAPHITI_LLM_MODEL=gemini-1.5-pro \
-e GRAPHITI_EMBEDDER_MODEL=text-embedding-004 \
-- uv --directory /absolute/path/to/unified-mcp run server.py
# 6. Restart Claude Code and verify
# Ask Claude: "What tools do you have available?"Manual Testing (optional):
# Run tests
pytest tests/ -v
# Start server directly
uv run server.pyProgressive Discovery Pattern
Traditional approach: Load all 20 tools upfront = 10,000 tokens
Our approach:
Search (
search_tools) → Find relevant tools → ~50 tokensDescribe (
describe_tools) → Get full schemas → ~200 tokens/toolExecute (
execute_tool) → Run the tool → Variable
Result: 98% token reduction 🎉

Node.js 18+ (for Context7/Playwright) - Install Node
Claude Code (for Claude-mem plugin) - Install Claude Code
Claude-Mem Setup (Memory Capability)
Important: Claude-mem is a separate MCP server that runs as a Claude Code plugin. It must be installed before the unified-mcp memory capability will work.
Installation Steps:
Install via Claude Code Plugin Marketplace:
# In Claude Code terminal /plugin marketplace add thedotmack/claude-mem /plugin install claude-memRestart Claude Code - The plugin auto-starts the HTTP API on
http://localhost:37777Verify Installation:
# Check the service is running curl http://localhost:37777 # Or visit the web UI open http://localhost:37777Troubleshooting:
# Use the built-in troubleshooting skill /claude-mem:troubleshoot
What Gets Installed:
HTTP API service on port 37777 (auto-managed by Bun)
SQLite database at
~/.claude-mem/claude-mem.dbWeb UI for browsing stored memories
5 lifecycle hooks for automatic memory capture
Vector search via Chroma for semantic queries
Architecture:
The unified-mcp server connects to claude-mem's HTTP API
No direct npm installation needed - plugin handles all dependencies
Auto-starts when Claude Code is running
Stores observations across sessions with semantic search
For more details, see the claude-mem documentation.
Install Dependencies
# Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
# Codanna (code understanding)
cargo install codanna --all-features
# Git submodules (for Context7 and Playwright only - claude-mem is a plugin)
git submodule update --init --recursive
cd capabilities/context7 && npm install
cd ../playwright-mcp && npm install
# Note: claude-mem is installed as a Claude Code plugin (see above), not via npmCodanna Auto-Indexing:
The server automatically creates and manages Codanna indexes:
✅ Automatic indexing on first run (indexes
src,lib,handlers,coredirectories)✅ No manual setup required - just install Codanna and start the server
🔄 Optional file watching - enable
watch_changes: trueinconfig/catalog.yamlto auto-reindex on file changes
To customize auto-indexing, edit config/catalog.yaml:
code_understanding:
auto_index: true # Auto-create index if missing
watch_changes: false # Watch files and re-index (requires watchdog)
index_dirs: # Directories to index
- src
- lib
- your-custom-dirUsage
Start Server
python server.pyServer runs on stdio (MCP protocol).
