### Using with Cursor/Windsurf
You can configure this MCP server to work as a code search tool for Cursor or Windsurf by customizing the tool
descriptions:
```bash
QDRANT_URL="http://localhost:6333" \
COLLECTION_NAME="code-snippets" \
TOOL_STORE_DESCRIPTION="Store reusable code snippets for later retrieval. \
The 'information' parameter should contain a natural language description of what the code does, \
while the actual code should be included in the 'metadata' parameter as a 'code' property. \
The value of 'metadata' is a Python dictionary with strings as keys. \
Use this whenever you generate some code snippet." \
TOOL_FIND_DESCRIPTION="Search for relevant code snippets based on natural language descriptions. \
The 'query' parameter should describe what you're looking for, \
and the tool will return the most relevant code snippets. \
Use this when you need to find existing code snippets for reuse or reference." \
uvx mcp-server-qdrant --transport sse # Enable SSE transport
```
In Cursor/Windsurf, you can then configure the MCP server in your settings by pointing to this running server using
SSE transport protocol. The description on how to add an MCP server to Cursor can be found in the [Cursor
documentation](https://docs.cursor.com/context/model-context-protocol#adding-an-mcp-server-to-cursor). If you are
running Cursor/Windsurf locally, you can use the following URL:
```
http://localhost:8000/sse
```
> [!TIP]
> We suggest SSE transport as a preferred way to connect Cursor/Windsurf to the MCP server, as it can support remote
> connections. That makes it easy to share the server with your team or use it in a cloud environment.
This configuration transforms the Qdrant MCP server into a specialized code search tool that can:
1. Store code snippets, documentation, and implementation details
2. Retrieve relevant code examples based on semantic search
3. Help developers find specific implementations or usage patterns
You can populate the database by storing natural language descriptions of code snippets (in the `information` parameter)
along with the actual code (in the `metadata.code` property), and then search for them using natural language queries
that describe what you're looking for.
> [!NOTE]
> The tool descriptions provided above are examples and may need to be customized for your specific use case. Consider
> adjusting the descriptions to better match your team's workflow and the specific types of code snippets you want to
> store and retrieve.
**If you have successfully installed the `mcp-server-qdrant`, but still can't get it to work with Cursor, please
consider creating the [Cursor rules](https://docs.cursor.com/context/rules-for-ai) so the MCP tools are always used when
the agent produces a new code snippet.** You can restrict the rules to only work for certain file types, to avoid using
the MCP server for the documentation or other types of content.
### Using with Claude Code
You can enhance Claude Code's capabilities by connecting it to this MCP server, enabling semantic search over your
existing codebase.
#### Setting up mcp-server-qdrant
1. Add the MCP server to Claude Code:
```shell
# Add mcp-server-qdrant configured for code search
claude mcp add code-search \
-e QDRANT_URL="http://localhost:6333" \
-e COLLECTION_NAME="code-repository" \
-e EMBEDDING_MODEL="sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2" \
-e TOOL_STORE_DESCRIPTION="Store code snippets with descriptions. The 'information' parameter should contain a natural language description of what the code does, while the actual code should be included in the 'metadata' parameter as a 'code' property." \
-e TOOL_FIND_DESCRIPTION="Search for relevant code snippets using natural language. The 'query' parameter should describe the functionality you're looking for." \
-- uvx mcp-server-qdrant
```
2. Verify the server was added:
```shell
claude mcp list
```
#### Using Semantic Code Search in Claude Code
Tool descriptions, specified in `TOOL_STORE_DESCRIPTION` and `TOOL_FIND_DESCRIPTION`, guide Claude Code on how to use
the MCP server. The ones provided above are examples and may need to be customized for your specific use case. However,
Claude Code should be already able to:
1. Use the `qdrant-store` tool to store code snippets with descriptions.
2. Use the `qdrant-find` tool to search for relevant code snippets using natural language.
### Run MCP server in Development Mode
The MCP server can be run in development mode using the `mcp dev` command. This will start the server and open the MCP
inspector in your browser.
```shell
COLLECTION_NAME=mcp-dev mcp dev src/mcp_server_qdrant/server.py
```
