Vector MCP Overview

vector-mcp MCP server exposes governed vector collection management and retrieval through two action-routed MCP tools. It uses an epistemic-graph engine by default, with opt-in PostgreSQL/pgvector, Qdrant, and MongoDB Atlas providers. The server supports local stdio connections and networked Streamable HTTP deployments, with runtime filtering for tools and tags. Reach for it when an agent needs controlled vector collection operations and search against one of its supported backends.

Primary Use Cases for Vector MCP:
  • Manage vector collections through an MCP-enabled agent
  • Search an epistemic graph from a compatible AI client
  • Connect agent retrieval workflows to Qdrant
  • Filter exposed tools to reduce model context usage
