Supavec MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to fetch relevant embeddings and content from Supavec.

Features

  • 🔍 Fetch Embeddings: Search and retrieve relevant content from Supavec files using embeddings

  • 🤖 AI Integration: Works with Cursor, Claude, VS Code Copilot, and other MCP-compatible tools

  • 🔑 Flexible Authentication: Support for both command-line arguments and environment variables

  • ⚡ Easy Setup: One-command installation via npx

Related MCP server: SourceSync.ai MCP Server

Installation

No installation required! Use directly with npx:

npx @supavec/mcp-server --api-key your_api_key

Global Installation

npm install -g @supavec/mcp-server
supavec-mcp --api-key your_api_key

Configuration

Cursor

Add to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "supavec": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@supavec/mcp-server@latest",
        "--api-key",
        "your_supavec_api_key"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add to your .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "supavec": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y", 
        "@supavec/mcp-server@latest",
        "--api-key",
        "your_supavec_api_key"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "supavec": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@supavec/mcp-server@latest", 
        "--api-key",
        "your_supavec_api_key"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Environment Variables

Alternatively, set your API key as an environment variable:

export SUPAVEC_API_KEY=your_supavec_api_key

Then use in your MCP configuration without the --api-key argument:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "supavec": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@supavec/mcp-server@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Authentication

Get Your API Key

  1. Visit Supavec

  2. Sign up or log in to your account

  3. Navigate to your API settings

  4. Generate a new API key

Usage Priority

The server checks for API keys in this order:

  1. --api-key command line argument (highest priority)

  2. SUPAVEC_API_KEY environment variable

Available Tools

fetch-embeddings

Fetch embeddings for a file by ID and query.

Parameters:

  • file_id (string, required): ID of the file to get embeddings for

  • query (string, required): Query to search for in the file

Example:

Ask your AI assistant: "Using Supavec, find information about 'authentication' in file abc123"

list-user-files

List all files uploaded to Supavec for the current user.

Parameters:

  • limit (number, optional): Number of files to fetch (default: 10)

  • offset (number, optional): Offset for pagination (default: 0)

  • order_dir (string, optional): Order direction for results - "asc" or "desc" (default: "desc")

Example:

Ask your AI assistant: "List my Supavec files" or "Show me the first 20 files from my Supavec account"

Response includes:

  • File ID and name

  • File type and creation date

  • Team ID

  • Pagination information

Command Line Usage

Help

supavec-mcp --help

With API Key

supavec-mcp --api-key your_api_key_here

With Environment Variable

export SUPAVEC_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
supavec-mcp

Examples

Using with Cursor

  1. Configure Supavec MCP in .cursor/mcp.json

  2. Open Cursor and start a new chat

  3. Ask: "Search for 'database setup' information in my Supavec file xyz789"

  4. The AI will use the Supavec MCP to fetch relevant content

Using with Claude

  1. Configure Supavec MCP in Claude settings

  2. In a conversation, ask: "Find documentation about API endpoints in file abc123"

  3. Claude will search your Supavec files and return relevant information

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"Error: Supavec API key is required"

  • Ensure you've provided an API key via --api-key or SUPAVEC_API_KEY environment variable

"Failed to fetch data: status 401"

  • Your API key may be invalid or expired. Check your Supavec account settings

"Failed to fetch data: status 404"

  • The file ID may not exist or you may not have access to it

    TDQS

    B3.1/5.0

    Scored across 2 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    The two tools have completely distinct purposes: one fetches embeddings for a specific file, while the other lists all user files. There is no overlap or ambiguity between these operations, making it clear when to use each tool.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    Both tools use a verb_noun pattern (fetch-embeddings, list-user-files), which is consistent and readable. The minor deviation is the use of hyphens instead of underscores, but this is a consistent stylistic choice across both tools.

    Tool Count2/5

    With only 2 tools, the server feels thin for a Supavec MCP Server, which likely involves file and embedding management. Key operations like uploading files, deleting files, or managing embeddings beyond fetching are missing, making the scope incomplete.

    Completeness2/5

    The toolset is severely incomplete for file and embedding management. There are no tools for uploading files, deleting files, updating embeddings, or other CRUD operations, leaving significant gaps that will hinder agent workflows in this domain.
