Driflyte MCP Server

NPM Version

MCP Server for Driflyte.

The Driflyte MCP Server exposes tools that allow AI assistants to query and retrieve topic-specific knowledge from recursively crawled and indexed web pages. With this MCP server, Driflyte acts as a bridge between diverse, topic-aware content sources (web, GitHub, and more) and AI-powered reasoning, enabling richer, more accurate answers.

What It Does

• Deep Web Crawling: Recursively follows links to crawl and index web pages.
• GitHub Integration: Crawls repositories, issues, and discussions.
• Extensible Resource Support: Future support planned for Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Docs/Drive, Confluence, JIRA, Zendesk, Salesforce, and more.
• Topic-Aware Indexing: Each document is tagged with one or more topics, enabling targeted, topic-specific retrieval.
• Designed for RAG with RAG: The server itself is built with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) in mind, and it powers RAG workflows by providing assistants with high-quality, topic-specific documents as grounding context.
• Designed for AI with AI: The system is not just for AI assistants — it is also designed and evolved using AI itself, making it an AI-native component for intelligent knowledge retrieval.

Usage & Limits

• Free Access: Driflyte is currently free to use.
• No Signup Required: You can start using it immediately — no registration or subscription needed.
• Rate Limits: To ensure fair usage, requests are limited by IP:
  • 100 API requests per 5 minutes per IP address.
• Future changes to usage policies and limits may be introduced as new features and resource integrations become available.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+
• An AI assistant (with MCP client) like Cursor, Claude (Desktop or Code), VS Code, Windsurf, etc ...
