What is MCP Server with FAISS for RAG?
The MCP Server is a proof-of-concept implementation designed to enable AI agents to query a vector database and retrieve relevant documents for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). It uses the Machine Conversation Protocol (MCP) to facilitate communication between the agent and the server.
How to use MCP Server with FAISS for RAG?
The server can be installed using pipx or manually. After installation, you can download Move files from GitHub, index them into the FAISS vector database, and then query the database using the provided command-line tools or the MCP API. RAG integration with LLMs is also supported for generating enhanced responses.
