What is Krep MCP Server?

Krep MCP Server provides a unified interface to the krep binary, a high-performance string search utility similar to grep but with optimized algorithms and multi-threading capabilities. It exposes krep's functionality through the Model Context Protocol, allowing AI assistants to perform efficient pattern searching in files and strings.

How to use Krep MCP Server?

To use the Krep MCP Server, configure it in your MCP settings file with the provided JSON configuration. Then, use the <use_mcp_tool> tag with the server name 'krep' and the tool name 'krep'. Provide the necessary arguments such as 'pattern', 'target', 'mode', 'caseSensitive', and 'threads'. See the examples.md file for detailed usage examples.

Key features of Krep MCP Server

  • High-Performance Search: Uses optimized algorithms (KMP, Boyer-Moore-Horspool, Rabin-Karp) selected based on pattern length

  • Hardware Acceleration: Leverages SIMD instructions (SSE4.2/AVX2 on x86/x64, NEON on ARM) when available

  • Optimized Multi-Threading: Automatically uses all available CPU cores for maximum parallel search performance

  • Unified Interface: Single function with multiple modes (file search, string search, count-only)

  • MCP Integration: Seamless integration with AI assistants through the Model Context Protocol

Use cases of Krep MCP Server

  • Efficiently searching for patterns in large files

  • Integrating high-performance string search into AI assistants

  • Counting occurrences of specific strings in files or strings

  • Performing case-sensitive or case-insensitive searches

FAQ from Krep MCP Server

What is Krep?

Krep is an ultra-fast pattern matching utility that significantly outperforms traditional tools like grep.

What is MCP?

MCP stands for Model Context Protocol, a protocol used for communication between AI assistants and tools.

How do I install the Krep MCP Server?

First, ensure you have the krep binary installed. Then, configure the MCP server in your MCP settings file.

What parameters can I use with the Krep MCP Server?

You can use parameters such as 'pattern', 'target', 'mode', 'caseSensitive', and 'threads'.

How does the Krep MCP Server select the search algorithm?

The server automatically selects the optimal algorithm based on the pattern length: KMP for very short patterns, Boyer-Moore-Horspool for medium-length patterns, and Rabin-Karp for longer patterns.
