Tools

This server runs locally, so its tools are listed by your MCP client once it starts.

Environment variables

Name	Description
`TOOLSEARCH_UPSTREAM` Required	Streamable HTTP URL of the MCP server whose tools are searched, such as a gateway
`TOOLSEARCH_EMBEDDER` Optional	builtin for semantic search, which needs the model in a volume at /model (see docs/deploy.md); none for lexical search only
