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, you need to install the krep binary and configure the MCP server in your MCP settings file. You can then use the <use_mcp_tool> tag with the server name 'krep' and the tool name 'krep', providing the necessary arguments such as pattern, target, mode, caseSensitive, and threads.
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
