This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add vectora -- uvx vectora-agent

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: GOOGLE_API_KEY (Google Gemini API key (recommended free-tier LLM provider)), COHERE_API_KEY (Cohere API key — required for RAG embeddings and reranking), TAVILY_API_KEY (Tavily API key — required for web search and URL extraction), OPENAI_API_KEY (OpenAI API key (optional — alternative LLM provider)), ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (Anthropic API key (optional — alternative LLM provider)), LANGSMITH_API_KEY (LangSmith API key (optional — tracing and observability)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Vectora — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Vectora?
Vectora runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package vectora-agent was installed 37 times last week.
Is Vectora still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Vectora?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls vectora-agent straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Vectora?
The pypi package vectora-agent was installed 37 times in the last week. Week over week that is -18%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
