SourceSync.ai MCP Server

smithery badge

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for the SourceSync.ai API. This server allows AI models to interact with SourceSync.ai's knowledge management platform through a standardized interface.

Features

  • Manage namespaces for organizing knowledge
  • Ingest content from various sources (text, URLs, websites, external services)
  • Retrieve, update, and manage documents stored in your knowledge base
  • Perform semantic and hybrid searches against your knowledge base
  • Access document content directly from parsed text URLs
  • Manage connections to external services
  • Default configuration support for seamless AI integration

Installation

Running with npx

# Install and run with your API key and tenant ID
env SOURCESYNC_API_KEY=your_api_key npx -y sourcesyncai-mcp

Installing via Smithery

To install sourcesyncai-mcp for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @pbteja1998/sourcesyncai-mcp --client claude

Manual Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/sourcesyncai-mcp.git
cd sourcesyncai-mcp

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the project
npm run build

# Run the server
node dist/index.js

Running on Cursor

To configure SourceSync.ai MCP in Cursor:

  1. Open Cursor Settings
  2. Go to Features > MCP Servers
  3. Click + Add New MCP Server
  4. Enter the following:
    • Name: sourcesyncai-mcp (or your preferred name)
    • Type: command
    • Command: env SOURCESYNCAI_API_KEY=your-api-key npx -y sourcesyncai-mcp

After adding, you can use SourceSync.ai tools with Cursor's AI features by describing your knowledge management needs.

Running on Windsurf

Add this to your ./codeium/windsurf/model_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sourcesyncai-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "soucesyncai-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SOURCESYNC_API_KEY": "your_api_key",
        "SOURCESYNC_NAMESPACE_ID": "your_namespace_id",
        "SOURCESYNC_TENANT_ID": "your_tenant_id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Running on Claude Desktop

To use this MCP server with Claude Desktop:

  1. Locate the Claude Desktop configuration file:

    • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
    • Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

  2. Edit the configuration file to add the SourceSync.ai MCP server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sourcesyncai-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "sourcesyncai-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SOURCESYNC_API_KEY": "your_api_key",
        "SOURCESYNC_NAMESPACE_ID": "your_namespace_id",
        "SOURCESYNC_TENANT_ID": "your_tenant_id"
      }
    }
  }
}
  1. Save the configuration file and restart Claude Desktop

Example Prompts

Here are some example prompts you can use with Claude or Cursor after configuring the MCP server:

  • "Search my SourceSync knowledge base for information about machine learning."
  • "Ingest this article into my SourceSync knowledge base: [URL]"
  • "Create a new namespace in SourceSync for my project documentation."
  • "List all the documents in my SourceSync namespace."
  • "Get the text content of document [document_id] from my SourceSync namespace."

Troubleshooting

Connection Issues

If you encounter issues connecting the SourceSync.ai MCP server:

  1. Verify Paths: Ensure all paths in your configuration are absolute paths, not relative.

  2. Check Permissions: Ensure the server file has execution permissions (chmod +x dist/index.js).

  3. Enable Developer Mode: In Claude Desktop, enable Developer Mode and check the MCP Log File.

  4. Test the Server: Run the server directly from the command line:

    node /path/to/sourcesyncai-mcp/dist/index.js

  5. Restart AI Client: After making changes, completely restart Claude Desktop or Cursor.

  6. Check Environment Variables: Ensure all required environment variables are correctly set.

Debug Logging

For detailed logging, add the DEBUG environment variable:

Document content retrieval workflow:

  1. First, use getDocuments with includeConfig.parsedTextFileUrl: true to get documents with their content URLs
  2. Extract the URL from the document response
  3. Use fetchUrlContent to retrieve the actual content:
{
  "name": "fetchUrlContent",
  "arguments": {
    "url": "https://example.com"
  }
}
