As a local MCP server: PyPI package
Built from what Official MCP Registry declares.
claude mcp add --env "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY>" --env "GEMINI_API_KEY=<YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY>" --env "OPENAI_API_KEY=<YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY>" --transport stdio darwin-rag -- uvx darwin-rag[mcp_servers.darwin-rag]
command = "uvx"
args = ["darwin-rag"]

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY = "<YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY>"
GEMINI_API_KEY = "<YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY>"
OPENAI_API_KEY = "<YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY>"{

"GEMINI_API_KEY": "<YOUR_GEMINI_API_KEY>",

}
}
}
}Replace the values in angle brackets with your own. We show the names of the settings, never values.
Optional settings it also lists: DARWIN_BASE_DIR.
We do not store launch arguments. If the server needs any, its own documentation names them.

Found by meaning, not by shared code or a shared repository: similar plugins stay separate products, and this is not a review or a recommendation.
Is this your plugin?
Prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record. You get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and can put its remote endpoint on monitoring as a web service.
Data comes from the Official MCP Registry (registry.modelcontextprotocol.io), CC0 1.0. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
