This server is deprecated and will be shut down soon. It previously allowed AI to search and analyze user-uploaded documents through Kollektiv's document management system.
Kollektiv Document Management is an official MCP server published by alexander-zuev that provides AI assistants with tools and capabilities via the Model Context Protocol. Kollektiv Document Management offers secure document management system software with AI-powered search, analysis, and OA It is categorized under ai ml, analytics data.
You can install Kollektiv Document Management in your AI client of choice. Use the install panel on this page to get one-click setup for Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible clients. This server supports remote connections over HTTP, so no local installation is required.
Apache-2.0
Kollektiv Document Management is released under the Apache-2.0 license. This is a permissive open-source license, meaning you can freely use, modify, and distribute the software.
Add new capabilities to Claude beyond text generation

Transform Claude from chatbot to action-taking agent
Provide Claude with access to relevant context and data
Example
Load project documentation, access knowledge bases, query databases
Get more accurate, context-aware responses
Automate multi-step workflows combining AI and external tools
Example
Research → Summarize → Create document → Send notification
Complete complex tasks end-to-end without manual steps
Share your MCP server with the developer community
Useful MCP listing: Kollektiv Document Management is the kind of server we cite when onboarding engineers to host + tool permissions.
We wired Kollektiv Document Management into a staging workspace; the listing’s GitHub and npm pointers saved time versus hunting across READMEs.
Kollektiv Document Management has been reliable for tool-calling workflows; the MCP profile page is a good permalink for internal docs.
Kollektiv Document Management reduced integration guesswork — categories and install configs on the listing matched the upstream repo.
Strong directory entry: Kollektiv Document Management surfaces stars and publisher context so we could sanity-check maintenance before adopting.
According to our notes, Kollektiv Document Management benefits from clear Model Context Protocol framing — fewer ambiguous “AI plugin” claims.

Strong directory entry: Kollektiv Document Management surfaces stars and publisher context so we could sanity-check maintenance before adopting.
We evaluated Kollektiv Document Management against two servers with overlapping tools; this profile had the clearer scope statement.
I recommend Kollektiv Document Management for teams standardizing on MCP; the explainx.ai page compares cleanly with sibling servers.

[Original Description - No longer maintained] Kollektiv MCP enables you to build personal LLM knowledge base in seconds and use it from your favorite editor / client. No more infrastructure setup, chunking, syncing - just upload your data and start chatting. Supports all major MCP clients out of the box - Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, etc.
This experimental MCP server is DEPRECATED and will be shut down soon. The service endpoints may stop working at any time without notice.
Do not use this for new projects or production use.
The simplest way to connect to Kollektiv MCP is to copy & paste the following
configuration into your editor's mcp.json file. All clients (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop,
VSCode, PyCharm) support this json format
{
"mcpServers": {
"kollektiv": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.thekollektiv.ai/mcp"
]
}
}
}
kollektiv- you can you give the server any descriptive namenpx - ensure you have node.js install before running this command-y - this enables your shell to install mcp-remote which is currently required to connect
to remote serversmcp-remote - this enables your client to connect to a remote MCP server (in this case
Kollektiv)https://mcp.thekollektiv.ai/mcp - is the endpoint you are connecting toCheck out a short demo below or read client-specific instructions on how to connect.
Open Cursor and go to Cursor Settings > MCP > Add new global MCP Server. Paste the configuration
above and save (ctrl/cmd+s).
If configuration is successful and you haven't authenticated before, a browser window should open guiding you to the login page.
💡After saving the
jsonit might take a while for Cursor to connect to the MCP. You might need to restart Cursor or give it a bit of time. If you see 'Client is closed' or other errors, taking these troubleshooting steps might help.
If the connection is successful, you should see Kollektiv MCP go green in the settings page:
Open Windsurf and go to Settings -> Windsurf Settings > MCP Servers > View raw config.
Paste the configuration above and save (ctrl/cmd+s).
If configuration is successful and you haven't authenticated before, a browser window should open guiding you to the login page.
💡Windsurf, in contrast to other clients, in my experience requires a restart of the app to properly connect. If the server doesn't go 'green' after a while, try going over the troubleshooting steps below.
If connection is successful you should see Kollektiv MCP go green in the settings page:
Open Claude Desktop and go to Settings -> Developer > Edit config. Open json file in any
text / code editor, paste the configuration above and save (ctrl/cmd+s).
If configuration is successful and you haven't authenticated before, a browser window should open guiding you to the login page.
💡Claude for Desktop requires a restart of the app to properly connect. If the server doesn't go 'green' after a while, try going over the troubleshooting steps below.
If connection is successful you should see Kollektiv MCP go green in the settings page:
Open VS Code and go to Settings -> MCP: Add server > Command (stdio):
npx -y mcp-remote https://mcp.thekollektiv.ai/mcpkollektivYour configuration settings.json should look similar to this:
{
"chat.mcp.discovery.enabled": true,
"chat.mcp.enabled": true,
"mcp": {
"servers": {
"kollektiv": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.thekollektiv.ai/mcp"
]
}
}
}
}
Next steps:
"chat.mcp.enabled": true, in your settings.json💡VS Code requires you to manually start your server, add
chat.mcp.enabledand switch to Agent mode to use MCP. If you do not see MCP tools in Agent mode, try going over the troubleshooting steps below.
If connection is successful you should see the tools exposed by Kollektiv MCP.
Open Cline, click on MCP Servers > Edit Configuration and add the following configuration to your
cline_mcp_settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"kollektiv": {
"timeout": 60,
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.thekollektiv.ai/mcp"
],
"transportType": "stdio",
"disabled": false
}
}
}
Note: direct connections to remote servers that support Authorization are not supported yet by Cline.
If connection is successful, you will be taken through to the authentication flow. After logging in, you should see Kollektiv MCP enabled in Cline.
Most MCP clients follow the same .json format and should work with similar configuration steps
as previously mentioned clients:

If you are experiencing issues, going through these simple troubleshooting steps might help.
I've validated connection works to the following MCP clients:
Other MCP clients should be supported in theory, but in practice things might be a little different. If you have a client you really want to connect to - let me know!
/query_documents — Submit a question to the documents you’ve uploaded to Kollektiv and
receive an answer based on the sources from your documents./list_documents — Return a list of your synced documents together with basic metadata.This MCP server uses Cloudflare Agents SDK as well as other libraries to provide the most modern way for users to connect to and use MCP servers. MCP clients on the other hand have yet to implement support for the 2 critical pieces:

💡 Pro Tips
Architecture
Model Context Protocol standardizes how AI hosts (Claude, Cursor) communicate with external tools and data sources through server implementations.
Protocols
Compatibility
✓ Use when
Use when you need Claude to access external data, execute actions, or integrate with tools. Best for extending AI capabilities beyond conversation.
✗ Avoid when
Avoid when native integrations exist (use official APIs directly), for real-time critical systems, or when security/compliance requires zero external dependencies.
