What is the Cognita (RAG Framework) MCP Server?
Connect your Cognita (TrueFoundry) instance to any AI agent and take full control of your modular RAG workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Knowledge Collections — List and audit RAG collections to inspect embedding configurations, token lengths, and parser details
- Data Ingestion — Force sync remote files from SQL, Cloud Storage, or APIs into your vector space to update your knowledge base
- RAG Queries — Dispatch automated AI questions that query your vector store and synthesize accurate answers from stored context
- Chunk Auditing — Perform lexical or semantic searches to pull raw document chunks and verify precise text segments
- Model Registry — Enumerate available LLMs and embedding models registered inside your modular Cognita installation
- DataSource Management — List all connected data sources to verify which external data is mapped into your AI workflows
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Cognita Base URL and API Key (if required by your TrueFoundry or self-hosted setup)
- Start managing your RAG pipelines from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- AI Engineers — test and debug RAG queries and chunk retrieval logic without writing Python scripts
- Data Scientists — monitor ingestion pipelines and verify document chunking consistency across collections
- Product Teams — quickly audit what knowledge is being fed to AI agents during the prototyping phase
- DevOps Teams — monitor Cognita model registries and ensure that all LLM endpoints are active and reachable

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent perform semantic RAG queries against my collections?
Yes. The 'rag_query' tool allows you to ask questions in natural language. The agent queries your vector store via Cognita and uses an LLM to synthesize a final answer based explicitly on the retrieved context.
How can I trigger a data ingestion pipeline through the agent?
Provide the collection name and the data source FQN (Fully Qualified Name). The 'ingest_data' tool will command the Cognita backend to start a sync, updating your RAG vector space with the latest remote documents.
Can I audit the raw document chunks before LLM generation?
Absolutely. Use the 'search_chunks' tool to perform vector searches that return raw text segments and metadata without LLM synthesis. This is the perfect way to verify that your retrieval logic is pulling the correct data boundaries.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
Server not connecting
Check Settings → MCP for the server status. Try toggling it off and on.
