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"

- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install dependencies from requirements.txt, then run python connect_mcp_server/main.py or via Uvicorn with uvicorn connect_mcp_server.main:mcp --reload. Docker build and run with an .env file is also supported. Exposed FastMCP tools: create_profile, update_profile, delete_profile, find_matches, and explain_match.

knolia-connect-server
MCP server to connect users with compatible companions for romantic and emotional relationships using AI-powered vector matching.
Overview
The Knolia Connect MCP server powers deep and context-aware matchmaking for users seeking meaningful relationships. Built using FastMCP and backed by Supabase with pgvector, it allows users to create rich connection profiles that are embedded using OpenAI's model and matched semantically to other users.
This service is part of Knolia's mission to help users combat loneliness and emotional disconnection by fostering intentional and high-quality relationships.
Core Components
📌 Connect Profiles
Users who opt into Knolia Connect create a structured profile that captures their goals, personality, preferences, and values. This profile is embedded as a 1536-dimensional vector and stored for fast similarity-based matching.
User Connect Profile Example
{
"user_id": "521cb145-d40a-4e8b-92a3-7e3cf03f7c00",
"relationship_goals": "Looking to build a deep emotional connection with someone who shares my values and growth mindset.",
"personality_tags": ["introverted", "empathetic", "spiritual"],
"sexual_preferences": {
"gender": "female",
"preference": "heterosexual"
},
"location": "Honolulu, HI",
"embedded_vector": [/ 1536-dim embedding /],
"opted_in": true,
"created_at": "2025-05-03T09:30:00Z",
"updated_at": "2025-05-03T09:30:00Z"
}
🧠 Embedding Format
Before storage, all profile data is transformed into natural language for better semantic understanding.
Embedded Connect Profile Example
Relationship Goals:
Looking to build a deep emotional connection with someone who shares my values and growth mindset.
Personality Tags:
introverted, empathetic, spiritual
Sexual Preferences:
Gender: female
Orientation: heterosexual
Location:
Honolulu, HI
Endpoints (via FastMCP tools)
create_profile
update_profile
delete_profile
find_matches
explain_match
Matching Logic
Matches are found by retrieving all other embedded connect profiles and calculating the cosine similarity between the requesting user and other users. Matches are filtered and sorted by similarity score to find the most aligned companions.
Explainable Matching
The explain_match endpoint returns the similarity score between two users and any shared personality tags. This makes it clearer why a potential match was suggested.
Local Dev
pip install -r requirements.txt
python connect_mcp_server/main.py
Run locally with Uvicorn
python -m uvicorn connect_mcp_server.main:mcp --reload
Docker
docker build -t connect-mcp .
docker run -p 8002:8000 --env-file .env connect-mcp
Testing
Run Tests:
pytest
Usage in Knolia
Noelle, Knolia's orchestrator, activates the Connect flow when a user opts into relationship discovery. Once opted in, their profile is embedded and compared against other matchable users. Noelle can then surface matches, initiate introductions, and facilitate conversation.
