Gnosis MCP

Stop pasting files into context. Your AI agent searches your local docs instead.5–10× fewer tokens per lookup. 92 % Hit@5 on real dev docs. Zero cloud dependencies.

Without a docs server

  • LLMs hallucinate API signatures that don't exist
  • Entire files dumped into context — 3,000–15,000 tokens per doc
  • Architecture decisions buried across dozens of files
  • Every repeated lookup pays full context cost

With Gnosis MCP

  • search_docs returns ranked, highlighted excerpts — typically 300–800 tokens
  • Real answers grounded in your actual docs, not guesses from training data
  • One local index across hundreds of files — instant multi-doc search
  • 5–10× token savings per lookup when your corpus covers the question

What makes gnosis-mcp different

  • Your data stays on your machine. SQLite by default, PostgreSQL at scale — nothing leaves the host.
  • Index anything that's docs-shaped. Markdown, git commit history, crawled websites — one index, one search API.
  • Measured, not marketed. Ships BEIR SciFact numbers (0.671 nDCG@10 — within 1 % of the Lucene BM25 baseline), a reproducible eval harness (gnosis-mcp eval), and a chunk-size sweep showing where the quality plateau actually sits.
