### Description (declared)

# RAGNet MCP

**Give Claude access to any documentation you want.**

RAGNet crawls documentation websites, stores them in a searchable database, and lets Claude search through them when you're coding. Instead of copy-pasting docs into your prompts, Claude can look things up itself.

## How It Works (Plain English)

```
┌─────────────────┐      stdio      ┌─────────────────┐
│   Claude Code   │ ◄─────────────► │   RAGNet MCP    │
│   (or Desktop)  │   (messages)    │   (this tool)   │
└─────────────────┘                 └────────┬────────┘
                                             │
                                    HTTP     │
                                             ▼
                                    ┌─────────────────┐
                                    │     Qdrant      │
                                    │ (vector database)│
                                    └─────────────────┘
```

**Three pieces:**

1. **Claude** (the AI) - asks questions like "how do I use AsyncWebCrawler?"
2. **RAGNet MCP** (this project) - receives the question, searches the database, returns relevant docs
3. **Qdrant** (vector database) - stores all the documentation chunks and finds similar content

**Important:** RAGNet is NOT a web server. It's a subprocess that Claude spawns and talks to via stdin/stdout (like two programs chatting through a pipe). Qdrant is the only actual server running on a port.
