Of

A local MCP server that turns the public Confluence space at openfinancebrasil.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OF into four tools any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) can call:

Tool	What it returns
search_docs	Top BM25 chunks (compact snippets + page id + URL)
get_page	Full markdown of one page; optional section= slice
list_sections	Page tree (root pages, or children of a page id)
answer_question	Verbose RAG context (full chunks + citations) for the host LLM to answer

Why this design (token economy)

• No embeddings. SQLite FTS5 (BM25) is local, instantaneous, and costs zero tokens. For keyword-heavy technical docs this is usually as good as semantic search. Optional [semantic] extra is left as a hook if you need re-ranking.
• Heading-based chunks (~300 tokens). search_docs returns 6 small snippets by default — typically a few hundred tokens total — instead of whole pages.
• No internal LLM call. answer_question returns the context, the calling assistant does the synthesis in its own context window. Avoids paying twice.

Setup

git clone <this-folder> of-mcp
cd of-mcp
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate          # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -e .
cp .env.example .env                # optional — defaults are fine

No Atlassian account or token needed. The OF Confluence space is public, and the crawler hits the REST API anonymously. The ATLASSIAN_EMAIL / ATLASSIAN_API_TOKEN variables in .env.example exist only as a fallback in case Atlassian ever restricts the space — leave them empty.

Build the index

of-mcp-crawl              # full crawl, incremental on subsequent runs
of-mcp-crawl --force      # re-index every page
of-mcp-reindex            # re-chunk from cached pages, no network

The index lives in ./data/of.db (SQLite + FTS5).

Wire it up to Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Add this to your MCP client config (e.g. ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "of-mcp": {
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/of-mcp/.venv/bin/of-mcp",
      "env": {
        "OF_MCP_DB_PATH": "/absolute/path/to/of-mcp/data/of.db"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Claude Code:

claude mcp add of-mcp /absolute/path/to/of-mcp/.venv/bin/of-mcp

Restart the client. You should see the four tools available.

Usage examples

In your MCP-enabled chat:

use search_docs with query "iniciação de pagamento erros 422"

open the page returned and read the "Erros" section using get_page

use answer_question for "como funciona consentimento recorrente?"

Re-indexing on a schedule

The crawler is incremental (skips pages whose Confluence version is unchanged), so a daily cron is cheap:

30 4 * * *  cd /path/to/of-mcp && .venv/bin/of-mcp-crawl >> crawl.log 2>&1
