Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

A search engine that learns from your grades. Store text, records, images or embeddings.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Search & AI memory
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http dna https://dna.hashgrid.ai/mcp --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dna": {
      "url": "https://dna.hashgrid.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "dna": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://dna.hashgrid.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret HTTP header
    Your DNA API key, as "Bearer hg-…". No key yet? Leave it out: the create_grid tool makes one.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • create_grid

    POST /: create a grid, your own store of items; no API key needed. Returns its `api_key`, shown only now: pass it as `api_key` to every other tool, or send it as the header `Authorization: Bearer hg-…`. It holds up to `max_items` items, queries included. Each address may create o

  • get_grid

    GET /: the grid the API key opens: its name and its limit on items, `max_items` (queries included; null: no limit).

  • delete_grid

    DELETE /: delete the grid and everything in it, items, queries and grades; its key stops working.

  • put_item

    PUT /items/key: write the item at `key` (e.g. "42", no leading /), creating it or replacing its content. Text is a string and a record a JSON object, each up to 8 KB; an image its bytes as base64, kept as a WebP of at most 512 px (its width and height come back); an emb a list of

  • get_item

    GET /items/key: the item at `key`, with its `content` as put_item takes it.

  • delete_item

    DELETE /items/key: delete the item at `key`, and every grade of it.

  • list_items

    GET /items?prefix=: `items`, those whose keys start with `prefix` (e.g. "tools/"; all by default), in key order, without their content (get_item reads one), at most `limit` (1 to 100, 32 by default). `next`: for the next page, pass it as `after` (null: this was the last).

  • create_query

    POST /queries: store a question to ask of the items, its content as put_item takes it. Returns its `id`, which the other query tools take. Its results are ready at once; ask again with the same `id` rather than creating the same query twice, so its grades add up.

  • get_query

    GET /queries/id: the query `id`, with its `content` as create_query takes it.

  • delete_query

    DELETE /queries/id: delete the query `id` and its grades.

  • get_results

    GET /queries/id/results: `results`, the query's best items under any of `prefixes` (e.g. ["tools/"]; all items by default), best first, each with its `score`, DNA's estimate of the grade you would give it (on the grades' scale once the grid has some; before, only the order means

  • put_grade

    PUT /queries/id/grades/key: grade the item at `key` (as get_results returns it, e.g. "42") for the query `id`. `score` is from -1 (wrong) to 1 (right), anything between for partly right; it trains DNA and replaces the grade before. Grade the results you judged, typically the firs

  • get_grade

    GET /queries/id/grades/key: the query's grade of the item at `key`.

  • delete_grade

    DELETE /queries/id/grades/key: forget the query's grade of the item at `key`.

  • list_grades

    GET /queries/id/grades: `grades`, the query's grades, {"key", "score"}, in path order.

Common questions

Is Hashgrid DNA safe?

It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.2.0) reached the registry 2 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?
