Driflyte MCP Server provides topic-aware knowledge retrieval by crawling and indexing web content and GitHub data, then exposing this information to AI assistants through the MCP protocol. The server is designed for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) workflows, delivering high-quality, topic-specific documents as grounding context for AI reasoning. It integrates with common MCP clients such as Claude, Copilot Coding Agent, Cursor, VS Code, Gemini CLI, and others, allowing you to add Driflyte as a local or remote MCP source to enable richer search and retrieval capabilities within your AI tools.

With the server, you can enable deep web crawling, GitHub repository and issue indexing, and future expansions to additional sources. Each document is tagged with one or more topics to support targeted queries. To use it, run the MCP server locally via a compatible package manager (for example, using npx to start @driflyte/mcp-server) or point your MCP client to the remote URL provided by Driflyte. Once connected, you can query topic-specific knowledge, retrieve grounded documents, and incorporate this material into AI-assisted reasoning or code generation workflows.

Prerequisites:

• Node.js 18+ installed on your machine
• Access to a terminal/command prompt

Installation steps:

1. Install and run the MCP server via NPX (quick start):

npx -y @driflyte/mcp-server

2. If you prefer to pin the server in your environment, you can install the MCP package globally or use your IDE's MCP setup to reference the local command:

# Example for local development with npx (as shown in docs):
npx -y @driflyte/mcp-server

3. Alternatively, configure your MCP clients to connect to a remote Driflyte MCP server at the provided URL (e.g., https://mcp.driflyte.com/mcp).
4. Verify connectivity by establishing a connection from your MCP client (VS Code, Claude, Copilot Coding Agent, etc.) using the recommended configuration for local or remote setup.

Notes and tips:

• Default rate limits: Driflyte restricts to 100 API requests per 5 minutes per IP for fair usage. Plan access accordingly.
• Transport options: The MCP server supports STDIO or HTTP transports; configure your client with the appropriate type (stdio for local, http for remote).
• Environment variables: The base configuration shown does not require specific environment variables, but you can add placeholders for future secret keys or API endpoints if your deployment requires them.
• CLI configuration: When wiring up with clients like Claude or Copilot, follow the exact sample configurations in the README to ensure compatibility (local vs remote setups).
• Keep dependencies up to date: Monitor the MCP server package version to benefit from improvements and new integrations.
