Docsift

Overview

Docsift is a Model Context Protocol server that converts documents once and returns only the passages answering your questions. Any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call Docsift's tools directly, letting the model decide when to use them during conversations or agent runs.

It runs locally via the Python package docsift using uvx docsift. No authentication is required—it works immediately after installation, communicating with your MCP client over stdio. The latest release is v0.5.7, published under the MIT license with source code available at anishmoncivarghese/docsift on GitHub.

Docsift appears in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and integrates with any MCP client including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others in the ecosystem. If you maintain Docsift, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information current.
