Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
File Search Assistant with LLM IntegrationCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install Python 3.8+ and dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt), set the GEMINI_API_KEY in a .env file, then run python main.py. Enter a natural‑language query when prompted; the system extracts a filename via the LLM, performs semantic search, and displays matching file locations.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

File Search Assistant with LLM Integration
This project combines semantic search capabilities with Large Language Models (LLM) to provide intelligent file search functionality in Linux systems.
Features
- Natural language file search queries
- Semantic search using BERT embeddings
- File system integration with MCP server
- Gemini LLM integration for query understanding
- Automatic file extension inference
Prerequisites
- Python 3.8 or higher
- CUDA-compatible GPU (optional, for faster processing)
- Linux operating system
Installation
1. Clone the repository:
git clone <repository-url>
cd LLm_To_agent/data_dir
2. Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
3. Configure environment variables:
- Create a .env file in the project root
- Add your Gemini API key:
GEMINI_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

Usage
1. Start the application:
python main.py
2. Enter your search query when prompted:
What file are you looking for?
> "find a python script that handles file operations"
3. The system will:
- Extract the relevant filename using LLM
- Search the file system using semantic search
- Display matching file locations
Features in Detail
- LLM Integration: Uses Google's Gemini for natural language understanding
- Semantic Search: Employs BERT embeddings for context-aware file matching
- MCP Server: Handles file system operations efficiently
- Extensible Architecture: Easy to add new search capabilities
Troubleshooting
If you encounter the error "Embeddings file not found", run:
cd ~ && find / -type f 2>/dev/null >> Desktop/LLm_To_agent
