Overview

Mcp Meilisearch is a Go-based wrapper for the Meilisearch search engine that functions as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, enabling large language models to utilize Meilisearch's powerful search capabilities.

To use Mcp Meilisearch, clone the repository, install dependencies, build the application, and start the server with a configuration file that specifies the Meilisearch server settings.

  • Lightweight and fast MCP server implemented in Go - Seamless integration with Meilisearch API - Interface compliant with the MCP protocol - Support for search, index management, and document operations
  1. Integrating Meilisearch with large language models for enhanced search capabilities.
  2. Managing indexes and documents efficiently through the MCP server.
  3. Providing a robust search solution for applications requiring fast and reliable search functionalities.

        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-meilisearch-cnosuke"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-meilisearch-cnosuke": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-meilisearch-cnosuke"
      ]
    }
  }
}
