Overview

Tribal is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed for error knowledge tracking and retrieval, enabling integration with tools like Claude Code and Cline.

To use Tribal, install it via pip or the uv package manager, configure it with Claude Code, and run the server to start tracking programming errors and solutions.

Store and retrieve error records with full context - Vector similarity search using ChromaDB - REST API (FastAPI) and native MCP interfaces - JWT authentication with API keys - Local storage (ChromaDB) and AWS integration - Docker-compose deployment - CLI client integration

Tracking programming errors and solutions in real-time.
Searching for similar errors to provide quick solutions.
Building a personalized knowledge base for coding patterns.
