XKnow / MCP server

Give your AI agent a knowledge base it can cite

xknow-mcp connects Claude, Cursor, Cline, opencode and any MCP-capable agent to the XKnow Knowledge Base — curated, source-backed notes on SEO, SaaS, and LLM wikis. It runs locally, needs no API key, and answers with citations.

tools

search_knowledge

Ranked search over the knowledge base — titles, snippets, and URLs.

get_page

The full text of one note by title or slug.

explore_concept

A note plus its outbound links and backlinks — walks the knowledge graph.

list_topics

Every note, grouped by section (seo, saas, blog).

lint_rules

The SEO/SaaS content self-check rubric — priority, reasoning, fix, and the notes that back each rule.

cite

The canonical citation for a note, so answers can attribute the source.

graph-aware

Notes cross-link with [[wikilinks]]. explore_concept returns the neighbours and backlinks, so an agent follows a topic instead of a flat list.

Local and private

Runs on your machine over stdio. The free layer is a bundled static snapshot; vault mode reads a local folder. Nothing is uploaded.

Citable by design

Every note carries a canonical URL. Use cite so the agent attributes claims to the XKnow source instead of guessing.

Free and MIT

The server is open source under MIT. The free layer covers our public SEO, SaaS, and LLM-wiki guides — no account required.

go deeper

The free layer is 57 pages. The vault is 571 notes.

Point xknow-mcp at the full Knowledge Base to give your agent the complete, cross-linked system — with an index, a changelog, and 2,200+ connections.
