Ckg

mcp-name: io.github.Yarmoluk/ckg-mcp

Compact Knowledge Graph MCP server. Pre-structured domain knowledge as a routing layer for agent stacks — 65× more efficient than RAG on structural queries.

License: MIT Python 3.10+ MCP Compatible

Built on the CKG Benchmark — 45 domains, 7,928 queries, fully reproducible results.

What It Does

Drop CKG into your agent stack as an MCP tool. Instead of retrieving text chunks and hoping the LLM infers structure, CKG gives agents pre-compiled dependency paths, prerequisite chains, and concept relationships — directly from a structured graph.

System	BERT F1	Tokens/query	Hallucination Rate
CKG	0.857	274	0%
RAG	0.817	17,900	Variable
GraphRAG	0.825	—	Variable

65× more efficient per token. Higher accuracy than both RAG and Microsoft GraphRAG. Zero hallucinations by construction.

Install

pip install ckg-mcp

Claude Desktop Configuration

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ckg": {
      "command": "ckg-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Works with Claude Desktop, LangGraph, AutoGen, or any MCP-compatible orchestrator.

Tools

Tool	Description
list_domains()	List all 53 available CKG domains
query_ckg(domain, concept, depth)	Extract subgraph — prerequisites + dependents up to N hops
get_prerequisites(domain, concept)	Full prerequisite chain to root
search_concepts(domain, query)	Find concepts by name

---

Example

# In your agent — via MCP tool call
query_ckg(domain="glp1-obesity", concept="Prior Authorization", depth=3)

# Returns the full causal chain:
## CKG: Prior Authorization (glp1-obesity)

### Prerequisites (what gates this)
  - Payer formulary tier assignment
    - Cost-effectiveness of GLP-1RA therapy
      - GLP-1 receptor agonist drug class
  - Medical necessity criteria

### Builds toward
  - Formulary position
  - Coverage decision

Same interface for codebases:

query_ckg(domain="langchain-core", concept="RunnableSequence", depth=2)
# Returns exact blast radius — 23 dependent modules — before your agent edits anything

Why Not RAG?

RAG retrieves text chunks and forces the LLM to infer structure. On multi-hop structural queries — prerequisites, dependency chains, blast radius — that inference fails.

CKG is a pre-compiled routing layer: dependency paths are already in the graph. BFS/DFS traversal, not similarity search. No hallucinations by construction.
