Contextcore

Active·★ 22·AGPL-3.0·Updated 2026-07-22

ContextCore is a local-first MCP server that indexes your local files (text, code, images, audio, video) and provides hybrid search (BM25 + embeddings) via a single MCP server. It reduces token usage by 57% compared to pasting entire files. It works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, and any MCP-compatible tool.
