PageIndex MCP

📘 PageIndex is a vectorless, reasoning-based RAG system that represents documents as hierarchical tree structures. It enables LLMs to navigate and retrieve information through structure and reasoning, not vector similarity - much like a human would retrieve information using a book's index. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting AI & ML tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install PageIndex MCP

Claude Code

claude mcp add vectifyai-pageindex-mcp -- npx -y @pageindex/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vectifyai-pageindex-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@pageindex/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
