# semblecodesearchgate-mcp

A paid remote MCP server that decides where your agent should look for code and hands back a structured receipt for each search.

## What it does

The server handles search routing. Your agent asks where to find a fragment, the server explains the context choice and records the route it took. Five tools cover that path: `route_code_search`, `explain_context_choice`, `issue_search_receipt`, `log_search_route` and `export_search_audit`.

It runs as a remote Streamable HTTP server at `https://semblecodesearchgate.clauxel.com/mcp`. Production calls need a bearer token issued from the product website. Hit `/mcp` without one and the request fails; a browser visit returns a JSON error rather than internal details.

The repository holds public documentation and a directory-submission server card only. No production source lives there. If your team has to show which context an agent pulled and who searched what, the receipts and audit log are the reason to pay for a hosted route instead of running search locally.

## Requirements
- Remote server: `https://semblecodesearchgate.clauxel.com/mcp`

## Install

File `.cursor/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "semblecodesearchgate-mcp": {
            "url": "https://semblecodesearchgate.clauxel.com/mcp"
        }
    }
}
```

### GitHub Copilot

```bash
gemini mcp add -t http semblecodesearchgate-mcp https://semblecodesearchgate.clauxel.com/mcp
```

## When to use it
- pick which index or repository to search for a code fragment
- explain why the agent chose a particular context
- issue a receipt for every search query
- keep a route log for later debugging
- export a search audit for a reviewer

## Example prompts
- Find where the payment handler is declared and show me the search receipt
- Explain why this context was chosen for the task
- Export today's search route log
