RAG Vault runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 141 installs a week from npm. Last commit 26 Oct 2026.
Local RAG MCP server with hybrid search, PDF/DOCX support, and zero-config setup
Today is the operative word: we check RAG Vault every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
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.
