Source ↗ · Checked 2026-09-19The MCP host launches uvx scholar-rag-mcp with fixed model-service endpoint and model-name environment variables; the process waits for its client on stdio and ingestion runs as queryable background jobs.
Source ↗ · Checked 2026-09-19The documented minimal local configuration uses loopback OpenAI-compatible model-service base URLs and model names and does not specify a credential or authorization step. External model services may impose requirements outside this reviewed configuration.
Source ↗ · Checked 2026-09-19The package exposes its MCP tools over stdio. Model inference uses separately configured OpenAI-compatible HTTP endpoints, and Qdrant is auto-launched or separately connected.
