About mcp-server
mcp-server is an MCP server published by the GitHub account vectros-ai. Typed record store + hybrid search over MCP: deterministic lookups + semantic memory, per-customer.
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the npm package @vectros-ai/mcp-server at version 0.18.2.
It asks for one secret: VECTROS_API_KEY. Give it a key with the least access that still works.
Version 0.18.2 was published on 26 October 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 9 automated checks on the registry entry and the package code: 6 pass, 1 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
What it asks for
| Variable | Required | Secret | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
VECTROS_API_KEY | Yes | Yes | Vectros API key. Use a least-privilege scoped key (ssk_...); mint one with `npx -y @vectros-ai/cli bootstrap`. Required for a registry install, which cannot assume any other tooling is present. If you also install the vectros CLI (0.9.0+), the server can instead resolve the key from its keyring and this can be left unset. |
VECTROS_KEYRING_ALIAS | No | No | Optional. When VECTROS_API_KEY is unset and the vectros CLI is installed, resolve this keyring entry instead of the active one. |
VECTROS_API_BASE_URL | No | No | Override the API base URL (default https://api.vectros.ai). Must be an official *.vectros.ai host. |
VECTROS_MCP_TOOLS | No | No | Comma-separated subset of tool names to register (default: all 23 tools). |
