Searchcraft MCP Server
Officialby Searchcraft
Searchcraft MCP Server connects AI agents like Claude to Searchcraft's developer-first vertical search engine through the Model Context Protocol. It exposes your Searchcraft cluster's full functionality — index management, document operations, advanced search queries, and app generation — as MCP tools that any compatible AI client can invoke with natural language commands. The server provides three categories of capabilities: import tools for ingesting data into your search cluster, engine API tools for managing indexes, documents, federations, and authentication, and app generation tools for creating search applications directly from AI conversations. Search operations support fuzzy and exact matching, facet filtering, date range queries, and federated search across multiple indexes. You can point it at a self-hosted Searchcraft cluster or the managed cloud service. Configuration requires just two environment variables: your cluster endpoint URL and API key. The server runs in stdio or HTTP mode and integrates with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients.
