# Nexlify MCP Server Package ## Overview The Nexlify MCP Server is a lightweight Python package designed to integrate GitHub Copilot with the Nexlify AI system. It acts as a bridge, allowing developers to send queries from their IDE directly to the Nexlify API server—a CrewAI-based agentic AI service. This server executes queries against a vector database (powered by Qdrant) for internal documentation and performs restricted searches on whitelisted URLs (e.g., GitHub, StackOverflow) to retrieve relevant results. The package implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for seamless communication with GitHub Copilot, enhancing developer productivity by providing RAG-based (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) responses within the IDE. Key features include: - Simple query forwarding to the Nexlify CrewAI microservice. - Support for semantic searches using embeddings stored in Qdrant. - Restriction to whitelisted URLs for safe and targeted internet searches. - Easy setup for local running and IDE integration. This package is part of the Nexlify MVP, which leverages technologies like FastAPI, CrewAI, and Gemini AI for embedding generation. ## Installation To install the latest version of the Nexlify MCP package, use pip. It is published on PyPI for easy access. ```bash pip install nexlify-mcp-server ``` ### Requirements - Python 3.10 or higher. - Dependencies: `requests` (automatically installed via pip). ## Configuration Before using the package, configure your environment and IDE. ### Environment Variables Create a `.env` file in your project root with the following (take reference from `.env.example`): ``` NEXLIFY_API_BASE_URI=<your_api_base_uri> MCP_TIMEOUT=500 # Timeout in seconds ``` Load these variables using `python-dotenv` if needed in custom scripts. ### IDE Setup - **VS Code**: Add the MCP server configuration to `.vscode/mcp.json` or `settings.json`. Enable MCP discovery with `"chat.mcp.discovery.enabled": true` and specify the local server URL (…
