Dewey
Connect your agent to Dewey document collections for agentic search over the knowledge you already uploaded.
Overview
Dewey is a Build-phase MCP server that provides agentic search over your Dewey document collections from MCP-compatible clients.
What is this MCP server?
- Agentic search across Dewey document collections from any MCP client
- npm package @meetdewey/mcp (v1.5.4) with stdio transport and streamable-http remote
- DEWEY_API_KEY required; optional DEWEY_COLLECTION_ID default for collection-scoped tools
- Configurable DEWEY_API_URL (default https://api.meetdewey.com/v1)
- Server/package version 1.5.4
- npm identifier: @meetdewey/mcp
- Default API base: https://api.meetdewey.com/v1
What problem does it solve?
Your agent cannot see the PDFs and internal docs you already curated in Dewey unless you manually paste excerpts into every chat.
Who is it for?
Solo builders with Dewey collections who want RAG-style search inside Claude Code or Cursor without building a custom vector stack.
Skip if: Greenfield projects with no Dewey account, or teams that need only public web search without private document stores.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your coding agent queries Dewey collections in place so answers and code comments can reference your uploaded knowledge base.
- Agentic search results scoped to Dewey collections
- MCP-grounded answers referencing your curated document corpus
