# Snipara MCP Server

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/snipara-mcp.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/snipara-mcp/)

MCP server for [Snipara](https://snipara.com) - Context optimization and Agent infrastructure for LLMs.

**Two Products in One:**

- **Snipara** - Context optimization with 90% token reduction
- **Snipara Agents** - Multi-agent memory, swarms, and coordination

**v2.1.0:** Full tool parity with FastAPI server - all 39 tools now available via stdio transport!

Works with any MCP-compatible client including Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, Gemini, GPT, and more.

**LLM-agnostic**: Snipara optimizes context delivery - you use your own LLM (Claude, GPT, Gemini, Llama, etc.).

## Installation

### Option 1: uvx (Recommended - No Install)

```bash
uvx snipara-mcp
```

### Option 2: pip

```bash
pip install snipara-mcp
```

### Option 3: With RLM Runtime Integration

```bash
pip install snipara-mcp[rlm]
```

This installs `rlm-runtime` as a dependency, enabling programmatic access to Snipara tools within the RLM orchestrator.

## Configuration

### Claude Desktop

Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) or `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snipara": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["snipara-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SNIPARA_API_KEY": "sk-your-api-key",
        "SNIPARA_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Cursor

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snipara": {

      "args": ["snipara-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SNIPARA_API_KEY": "sk-your-api-key",
        "SNIPARA_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

### Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add snipara -- uvx snipara-mcp
```

Then set environment variables in your shell or `.env` file.

### Windsurf

Add to `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snipara": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["snipara-mcp"],
      "env": {

        "SNIPARA_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## Example Usage

Once configured, ask your LLM:

> "Use snipara to find how authentication works in my codebase"

The LLM will call `rlm_context_query` and return relevant documentation sections.

### Agent Memory Example

> "Remember that the user prefers TypeScript over JavaScript"

> "What do you remember about the user's preferences?"

### Multi-Agent Swarm Example

> "Create a swarm called 'refactoring-team' for coordinating the auth refactor"

> "Claim the file src/auth.ts so other agents don't modify it"

> "Create a task to update the login flow, depending on the token-refresh task"

## Alternative: Direct HTTP (No Local Install)

For clients that support HTTP transport (Claude Code, Cursor v0.48+), you can connect directly without installing anything:

**Claude Code:**

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snipara": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.snipara.com/mcp/YOUR_PROJECT_ID",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk-your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

## CI/CD Integration

Sync docs automatically on git push using the webhook endpoint:

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.snipara.com/v1/YOUR_PROJECT_ID/webhook/sync" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"documents": [{"path": "CLAUDE.md", "content": "..."}]}'
```

See [GitHub Action example](https://github.com/alopez3006/snipara-fastapi#github-action-example) for automated sync on push.

## Upgrading

When a new version is released on PyPI, follow these steps to get the latest tools:

### 1. Clear the uvx cache

```bash
# macOS/Linux
rm -rf ~/.cache/uv/tools/snipara-mcp
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/uv/tools/snipara-mcp

# Windows
rmdir /s %LOCALAPPDATA%\uv\tools\snipara-mcp
```

### 2. Restart your MCP client

MCP tool definitions are loaded at startup. You **must restart** Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, or your MCP client to load the new tools.

### 3. Verify the version

After restart, the new tools should be available. You can check by asking:

> "Use snipara to show settings"

If `rlm_settings` works, you have the latest version.

### Important: Use uvx, not local Python

Always configure with `uvx` to get automatic updates from PyPI:

```json
{
  "command": "uvx",
  "args": ["snipara-mcp"]
}
```

**Do NOT use local Python paths** like:

```json
{
  "command": "/usr/bin/python3",
  "args": ["-m", "snipara_mcp"],
  "env": { "PYTHONPATH": "/local/path" }
}
```

This bypasses PyPI and you won't get updates.

## Troubleshooting

### MCP tools not showing up

1. **Restart your MCP client** - Tool definitions are cached at startup
2. **Clear uvx cache** - Old version may be cached (see Upgrading section)
3. **Check config syntax** - Ensure valid JSON in your MCP config file

### "Invalid API key" error

- Verify your API key is correct in the dashboard
- Check the key hasn't been rotated
- Ensure no extra whitespace in the config

### MCP server not connecting

- Check that `uvx` is installed: `which uvx` or `uvx --version`
- Install uv if missing: `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`
- Check Claude Code output panel for connection errors

## RLM Runtime Integration (New in 1.4.0)

Snipara MCP can be used as a tool provider for [rlm-runtime](https://github.com/alopez3006/rlm-runtime), enabling LLMs to query your documentation during autonomous code execution.

### Installation

```bash
pip install snipara-mcp[rlm]
```

### Usage with RLM Runtime

```python
from rlm import RLM

# Snipara tools are auto-registered when credentials are set
rlm = RLM(
    model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
    snipara_api_key="rlm_your_key",
    snipara_project_slug="your-project"
)

# The LLM can now query your docs during execution
result = rlm.run("Implement the auth flow following our coding standards")
```

### Manual Tool Registration

```python
from snipara_mcp import get_snipara_tools

# Get tools as RLM-compatible Tool objects
tools = get_snipara_tools(
    api_key="rlm_your_key",
    project_slug="your-project"
)

# Register with RLM
from rlm import RLM
rlm = RLM(model="claude-sonnet-4-20250514", tools=tools)
```
