You can run a local MCP server that taps into your ChromaDB instance to surface relevant documents for GitHub Copilot. This server enables Copilot to query a ChromaDB collection and provide contextual information to assist code generation and research workflows.

How to use

You use this MCP server by integrating it with your GitHub Copilot setup in your code editor. The server runs locally and exposes a standard MCP endpoint that Copilot can query through a configured MCP server entry. In practice, you will configure Copilot to communicate with the local server, then ask Copilot to retrieve documents from your ChromaDB collection to enrich its responses.

How to install

Prerequisites you must have before installingt the MCP server:

Node.js version 18 or later
Access at http://127.0.0.1:8000
Collection named ExchangeResearch

Concrete installation steps you should perform in order:

npm install
npm run build
