Side-by-side comparison of two Model Context Protocol servers — install paths, tools, quality signals, and directory engagement so you can pick the right one for Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients.
Privacy-first document search server running entirely locally. Supports semantic search over PDFs, DOCX, TXT, and Markdown files with LanceDB vector storage and local embeddings - no API keys or cloud services required.
Self-hosted semantic memory server, served over MCP, for an engineering team's tribal knowledge: the tacit decisions and hard-won reasoning behind the code, captured once and kept queryable for the team and the agents they work with. Postgres-backed (pgvector).
