RAGFlow MCP Server
A first-party Model Context Protocol server that InfiniFlow ships inside the RAGFlow repository at mcp/server/server.py. It is an OPTIONAL, DISABLED-BY-DEFAULT component of a RAGFlow deployment: the operator uncomments services.ragflow.command in docker/docker-compose.yml (or runs `uv run mcp/server/server.py`) to start it alongside a working RAGFlow server. There is no InfiniFlow-hosted MCP endpoint — cloud.ragflow.io/mcp answers HTTP 405 from openresty, confirming no MCP surface is exposed on RAGFlow Cloud.
One-click install for Cursor, VS Code, Claude, and 20+ other MCP clients, powered by API Commons MCP Install — visit install.apicommons.org for more information.

Tools
ragflow_retrieval— Retrieve relevant chunks from the RAGFlow retrieve interface based on a question. dataset_ids may be omitted or empty to search across all available datasets; document_ids narrows to specific documents. The tool description is generated at runtime and embeds the id + description of every dataset the calling key can see.ragflow_list_datasets— List all accessible datasets (knowledge bases), returning dataset ids, names and descriptions, so a client can discover what to retrieve from.ragflow_list_chats— List all accessible chat assistants, returning ids, names and descriptions, so a client can discover which assistants are available for conversation.
About MCP
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol Anthropic introduced for connecting LLM-based agents to external tools and data sources. Providers publish MCP servers that expose their API surface as structured, discoverable tools — an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.) can connect to the server and call its tools without any per-provider integration code.
Browse every MCP server on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Agent Skill surfaces of the same providers.
Work with this as data
Every MCP server here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
