From the repository

Install by adding the server configuration to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, or others) using npx -y @sylphx/coderag-mcp --root=/path/to/project. Optionally set --max-size (default 1 MB) or --no-auto-index. Invoke the codebase_search tool with a query string and optional parameters like limit, file_extensions, path_filter, and exclude_paths.

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.
