MyContext MCP Server lets you store and access project documentation locally using a nested, markdown-based structure. It keeps everything on your machine for fast, private access and makes it easy to search across all projects and contexts.

How to use

You interact with the MCP server through your MCP client. Your client can list all available projects, inspect project structure, read a specific context file, and search for keywords across all contexts. Use the following practical workflows to manage and retrieve information efficiently.

How to install

Prerequisites: ensure you have a supported runtime and package manager.

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the server
npm run build

Set up the local context directory structure as shown in examples. Create the directory for your markdown context data.

mkdir -p ~/.mycontext

Configure your client to connect to the MCP server using the local, stdio-based runtime. Provide the exact command path used to run the server as shown in the configuration example.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mycontext": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/mycontext-mcp-server/build/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Configuration and startup notes

After you finish the configuration, restart the MCP client to activate the server.

Notes and tips

Keep your context files well-structured and documented. Use # for main titles, ## for sections, and code blocks with proper syntax highlighting to make it easier to read and search.

Troubleshooting and environment

If you encounter permission issues or build problems, verify your Node.js version is up to date and ensure your local context directory is accessible.
