[public-knowledge-search MCP server]
[public-knowledge-search MCP server]
A Model Context Protocol server that searches Vascue's public documentation: healthcare operations, Vascue Front Desk for clinics, provider-side insurance claims automation, practice-management integrations (two-way sync with Cliniko and Nookal; Jane, Mindbody, PracticeHub, HexaHealth, Halaxy, Clinicea, ClinicOffice, Semble, Plato Medical and JERA in progress), security, case studies and pricing.
It comes in two equivalent forms:
-
Hosted (always current): https://www.vascue.io/mcp/search - streamable HTTP, no authentication.
-
Self-contained (this repo): python server.py - local BM25 search over a bundled snapshot of the public pages (content/, refreshed per release with scripts/fetch_content.py). No network calls at runtime, so it also works offline and is what directory-built releases run.
-
Endpoint: https://www.vascue.io/mcp/search (streamable HTTP, no authentication)
-
Server card: https://www.vascue.io/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json
-
Registry name: io.vascue/public-knowledge-search

Operated by: Vascue Limited (ISO 27001 certified)
Public content only. This server indexes public product and educational pages. Never send patient information, claim documents, clinic credentials or booking requests to it. Agent-based clinic booking is a separate research pilot, not a public API.
Connect
Any MCP client that speaks streamable HTTP can connect to the endpoint directly.
Claude Code
Cursor / Claude Desktop / other stdio-only clients (via mcp-remote)
Self-contained local server (stdio; bundled snapshot, no network)
Docker (builds the self-contained server)
Tools
One tool, search, in both forms: no authentication, read-only. The inputs differ between the hosted endpoint and the local server.
Hosted endpoint (https://www.vascue.io/mcp/search)
Hybrid (keyword + vector) search over Vascue's public pages. Returns matching excerpts with their canonical https://www.vascue.io/... URLs so answers can cite the source.
Query rewriting and reranking are disabled server-side; the server returns source chunks only and never a generated answer, so nothing is presented as a Vascue statement without a citation. Rate limit: 60 requests per minute per client.
Example call:
The endpoint is backed by a Cloudflare AI Search instance over the approved public Markdown export of vascue.io (the service descriptor at https://www.vascue.io/.well-known/ai-search.json states what is and is not indexed).
Local server (server.py)
BM25 keyword search over the bundled content/ snapshot. No network calls at runtime. Returns {"chunks": [...]}, each chunk with url, title, score (0–1, relative to the best match) and text.
Example call:
Development
CI runs the same build and smoke test on every push and weekly, so the badge above doubles as an endpoint health indicator.
Directory build specs
Directories that build the server from source (e.g. Glama) run the self-contained form. Generated build images vary (uv-managed Python without pip, or a PEP 668 externally-managed system Python), so use an explicit venv:
- Build steps:
["uv venv /opt/venv && uv pip install --python /opt/venv/bin/python -r requirements.txt"]
- CMD:
["/opt/venv/bin/python", "server.py"]
- No environment variables.
Where a normal pip exists, plain pip install -r requirements.txt + ["python", "server.py"] works too.
