What I built

  • Open-source MCP server that turns an Obsidian vault into live, private context for Claude and any MCP client: who you are, what you are working on, and tools to search, follow links and write back.
  • Graph-aware hybrid retrieval that never leaves the machine — section BM25 and bge-small embeddings fused with RRF, a walk from the best notes along their strongest links, a cross-encoder reranker, and a floor that answers "nothing relevant" instead of guessing.
  • Public over OAuth 2.1 behind Cloudflare Tunnel, with read, write and private scopes, credential redaction and an audit line for every call. Any ranking change has to beat the bundled evals first.
  • TypeScript
  • MCP
  • SQLite FTS5
  • Embeddings
  • OAuth 2.1

Downloads from the npm registry, clones from GitHub repository traffic (owner only, kept 14 days, stored here as it rolls).

Retrieval figures from eval-retrieval.mjs on the example vault, in the brain-mcp README.

The 3D brain pins every note of an illustrative everyday vault (the same as on 2brain.debawho.xyz) to the cortex; orange arcs are its wikilinks.

Live figures as of 18.10.2026.
