Moorcheh MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides seamless integration with Moorcheh's Embedding, Vector Store, Search, and Gen AI Answer services. This server enables you to interact with Moorcheh's comprehensive AI capabilities including document embedding, vector storage, semantic search, and AI-powered answer generation through the Model Context Protocol.
Quick Start Guide
There are two ways to use the Moorcheh MCP server:
Option 1: NPX (Recommended - No Installation Required)
The easiest way to get started:
# Set your API key and run directly
MOORCHEH_API_KEY=your_api_key_here npx -y @moorchehai/mcp
Option 2: Manual Installation
If you prefer to clone and run locally:
-
Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/moorcheh-ai/moorcheh-mcp.git cd moorcheh-mcp -
Install dependencies
npm install
Step 2: Configure Your API Key
-
Get your Moorcheh API key
- Visit Moorcheh Dashboard
- Sign in to your account
- Go to your account settings
- Generate or copy your API key
-
Set up your environment
# Copy the example environment file cp env.example .env -
Edit the .env file
# Open .env in your preferred editor # Replace 'your_moorcheh_api_key_here' with your actual API key MOORCHEH_API_KEY=your_actual_api_key_here
Step 3: Start the Server
npm start
That's it! Your Moorcheh MCP server is now running and ready to use.
Setting Up with Claude Desktop
To use the Moorcheh MCP server with Claude Desktop:
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fccbba8e-7393-4b74-8a73-769b55b3f3a3
Step 1: Install Claude Desktop
- Download Claude Desktop from https://claude.ai/download
- Install and launch Claude Desktop
Step 2: Configure MCP Server
Option A: Using NPX (Recommended)
- In Claude Desktop, go to Settings → Developer
- Click Edit Config
- Configure the server with these settings:
{ "mcpServers": { "moorcheh": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@moorchehai/mcp"], "env": { "MOORCHEH_API_KEY": "your_actual_api_key_here" } } } }
Option B: Local Installation
-
In Claude Desktop, go to Settings → Developer
-
Click Edit Config
-
Configure the server with these settings:
{ "mcpServers":{ "moorcheh": { "command": "node", "args": [ "path\\to\\moorcheh-mcp\\src\\server\\index.js" ], "env": { "NODE_ENV": "development" } } } } -
Important:
- For Option A: Replace
your_actual_api_key_herewith your actual Moorcheh API key - For Option B: Replace
path\\to\\moorcheh-mcp\\src\\server\\index.jswith the actual path to yourindex.jsfile and create .env in moorcheh-mcp with your API key
- For Option A: Replace
-
Save the configuration file and restart Claude Desktop completely
Step 3: Test the Connection
- Start a new conversation in Claude Desktop
- Ask Claude to list the available tools: "Can you list down my namespaces?"
- You should see tools like
list-namespaces,search,answer, etc.
Setting Up with Cursor
To use the Moorcheh MCP server with Cursor IDE:
Step 1: Install Cursor
- Download Cursor from https://cursor.com
- Install and launch Cursor
Step 2: Configure MCP Server
Option A: Using NPX (Recommended)
- In Cursor, go to Settings → Tools & integration
- Click Add MCP Server
- Configure the server with these settings:
{
"mcpServers": {
"moorcheh": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@moorchehai/mcp"],
"env": {
"MOORCHEH_API_KEY": "your_actual_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}
Option B: Local Installation
- In Cursor, go to Settings → Tools & integration
- Click Add MCP Server
- Configure the server with these settings:
{
"mcpServers":{
"moorcheh": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"path\\to\\moorcheh-mcp\\src\\server\\index.js"
],
"env": {
"NODE_ENV": "development"
}
}
}
}
Step 3: Set Your API Key
- For Option A: Replace
your_actual_api_key_herewith your actual Moorcheh API key in the configuration - For Option B: Create .env in moorcheh-mcp directory and add your API key with
MOORCHEH_API_KEY=your_key_here
Step 4: Test the Connection
- Open a new chat in Cursor (Cmd/Ctrl + L)
- Ask the AI to list available Moorcheh tools: "What Moorcheh tools can I use?"
- You should see tools like
list-namespaces,search,answer, etc.
