PinRAG MCP

PinRAG is a community-built MCP server that indexes diverse materials like PDFs, GitHub repos, YouTube videos, and Discord discussions into a shared RAG index. It allows AI assistants to query these materials with natural language and receive answers with precise citations pointing back to specific pages, timestamps, or files. It supports optional YouTube vision enrichment and configurable LLM providers.
