mcp-raganything: MCP-RAGAnything is a multi-modal RAG service that exposes a REST API and an MCP server. It indexes documents stored in MinIO into a PostgreSQL-backed knowledge graph using LightRAG. Each project is isolated via its own working_dir.; ocr-mcp: OCR-MCP is a complete AI OCR webapp and MCP server. It provides a web interface for drag-and-drop OCR, scanning, and batch processing, and a FastMCP server for agentic IDEs like Claude, Cursor, Windsurf. It supports 13 OCR engines, WIA scanner, preprocessing, and workflow pipelines.
