OpenRAG is a comprehensive Retrieval-Augmented Generation platform that enables intelligent document search and AI-powered conversations.

Users can upload, process, and query documents through a chat interface backed by large language models and semantic search capabilities. The system utilizes Langflow for document ingestion, retrieval workflows, and intelligent nudges, providing a seamless RAG experience.

📦 SDKs

Integrate OpenRAG into your applications with our official SDKs:

Python SDK

pip install openrag-sdk

Quick Example:

import asyncio
from openrag_sdk import OpenRAGClient


async def main():
    async with OpenRAGClient() as client:
        response = await client.chat.create(message="What is RAG?")
        print(response.response)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())

🔌 Model Context Protocol (MCP)

OpenRAG ships a built-in MCP server over streamable HTTP, mounted on your instance at /mcp. Connect AI assistants like Cursor, Claude Desktop, and IBM Bob to your OpenRAG knowledge base — no subprocess and no separate install. Authenticate with the same OpenRAG API key you use for the REST API, passed via the X-API-Key header.

Important: The standalone openrag-mcp PyPI package is deprecated. Connect your MCP client directly to the /mcp endpoint instead.

Quick Example (Cursor/Claude Desktop config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openrag": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "orag_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

The MCP server provides tools for RAG-enhanced chat, semantic search, document ingestion, knowledge filters, and settings management.
