Why people use R2R
R2R : Stop manual data fetching for your RAG workflows
This Connector changes that by putting your RAG deployment right into your chat interface. Your agent can now look things up itself. When you ask a question, it doesn't just guess; it goes into your database, finds the relevant chunks, and pulls out the facts. You get to stop being the middleman.
What Vinkius changes
Your AI gets a direct line to your private knowledge base.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about R2R.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
How does the R2R MCP help with my private data?
It gives your AI a direct line to your private knowledge base. Instead of feeding files manually, your agent can query your RAG infrastructure to find facts on demand.
Can I use R2R MCP to search my company's PDFs?
Yes, it uses vector search to find specific sections of your PDFs. This means your agent can pull out the exact context it needs from your company's documents.
Do I need to set up a database first?
You need an active R2R deployment. This Connector connects to an existing RAG infrastructure, so you'll need your Base URL and Auth Key ready to go.
How does R2R MCP handle summaries?
It uses the RAG query capability to synthesize answers. Your agent will look at your vector data and provide a summary based on what's actually in your files.
Can I check my document status with R2R MCP?
Yes, you can list all ingested documents directly in the chat. This makes it easy to see what's been processed without checking a separate dashboard.
Will R2R MCP work with my existing RAG setup?
Yes, as long as your RAG system is compatible with the R2R protocol. You just need to provide the correct connection details in your settings.
What URL should I use for the R2R API URL?
If you are running R2R locally via Docker, it's typically http://localhost:7272. If you are using SciPhi Cloud or have it deployed on your own infrastructure, provide the exact public or private endpoint.
Do I need an R2R API Key?
It depends on your deployment. Open deployments for local testing may not require a key. Production deployments or SciPhi Cloud environments require you to provide the generated key.
What is the difference between RAG and Search?
The search capability issues a standard vector similarity match—it returns relevant raw snippets from your database. The rag_query capability asks the R2R server to perform the search and compute an intelligent answer wrapping those snippets using an LLM.
Are document ingestions possible via chat?
No. This integration is designed for observational toolsets (listing documents, inspecting states, querying the index). Heavy ingestions of PDFs or websites should be handled through scripts or the dashboard.
