write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
akb_delete_filewrite actionDelete a file from vault storage by its URI.
akb_get_fileDownload a file from vault storage to a local path. Pass the file URI — `akb://{vault}[/coll/{coll_path}]/file/{uuid}` — from akb_browse or akb_put_file.
akb_put_filewrite actionUpload a local file to a vault's file storage (S3-backed). Use for PDFs, images, datasets, or any binary content too large for akb_put. Response includes the canonical `uri` — `akb://{vault}/coll/{collection}/file/{uuid}` when stored under a collection, or `akb://{vault}/file/{uuid}` at the vault root — pass that to akb_get_file / akb_delete_file.

AKB — Agent Knowledge Base
Organizational memory for AI agents. PostgreSQL-native knowledge base served
over the Model Context Protocol (MCP) — agents read and write directly
with hybrid semantic + keyword search, structured tables, files, and a URI
graph. Drop-in alternative to Confluence / Notion for Claude Code, Cursor,
Windsurf, and any MCP-aware agent.
Works with
Any agent client that speaks MCP (Streamable HTTP or stdio):
akb-mcp stdio proxy
- Claude Code — CLI / VS Code / JetBrains
- Claude Desktop — macOS / Windows
- Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Continue — via the
- Custom agents — direct HTTP POST /mcp/ with a Bearer token
The default flow uses a Personal Access Token. Deployments with the optional MCP OAuth Resource Server path turned on (via Keycloak as the AS — see docs/mcp-clients/web-connectors.md) also accept Claude Code's mcp add --transport http + mcp login flow end-to-end, without a PAT.
MCP protocol compatibility
AKB keeps one tool and authorization core behind two protocol adapters:
The proxy answers either handshake locally and normalizes backend calls to the modern stateless contract when available. Legacy backend sessions are used only during a rolling upgrade when modern discovery is unavailable. A process cannot mix generations, and unsupported revisions or conflicting protocol evidence fail closed before a tool or local-file operation runs.
Plugins
Beyond raw MCP access, AKB ships ready-made agent plugins for Claude Code and Codex that wrap common vault workflows:
commit, Confluence page, or Jira issue) into the vault as a structured document, and answer questions from the vault with grounded, cited synthesis (read-only).
- akb-wiki — ingest a source (local file, web URL, GitHub PR / release /
report plus follow-up tasks, learnings, ideas, and decisions.
- akb-sessions — capture a coding session as structured notes: a session
session to your AKB memory vault, injecting preferences and recent learnings at the start and writing a recap at the end.

Try it live
A public demo runs at akb-demo.agent.seahorse.dnotitia.ai. Browse and search a small fictional-organization knowledge base — product docs, a company handbook, agent session notes, and an engineering wiki, cross-linked by the URI graph — right in your browser, no signup. To wire it into your own agent, sign up with any email (a throwaway address is fine) and point the akb-mcp proxy at https://akb-demo.agent.seahorse.dnotitia.ai/mcp/.
