Qdrant Search

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for semantic code search via Qdrant vector database. Designed to work with codebases indexed by Kilo Code or similar tools.

Features

• Semantic code search - find code by meaning, not just exact strings
• Multiple embedding providers - OpenRouter, OpenAI, or local (Ollama)
• Kilo Code compatible - works with payload formats from Kilo Code's indexer
• Collection listing - browse available Qdrant collections with stats

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10+
• A Qdrant instance (cloud or local)
• An embedding API (OpenRouter, OpenAI, or local Ollama)

Installation

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/sandeep-wt/qdrant-search-mcp.git
cd qdrant-search-mcp

# Create a virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

Configuration

Set these environment variables:

# Required
export QDRANT_URL="https://your-qdrant-instance.example.com"
export QDRANT_API_KEY="your-qdrant-api-key"
export COLLECTION_NAME="your-collection-name"

# Embedding provider (default: openrouter)
export EMBEDDING_PROVIDER="openrouter"  # or "openai" or "local"

# For OpenRouter
export OPENROUTER_API_KEY="your-openrouter-key"
export EMBEDDING_MODEL="qwen/qwen3-embedding-8b"

# For OpenAI
# export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-key"
# export EMBEDDING_MODEL="text-embedding-3-small"

# For local (Ollama)
# export EMBEDDING_URL="http://localhost:11434/api/embeddings"
# export EMBEDDING_MODEL="nomic-embed-text"

Running

python -m qdrant_search_mcp
