Category: Search & AI memory
You need to fill in: KNOWLEDGE_GAPS_LICENSE

Install

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

Before you install

Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
You fill in yourself: KNOWLEDGE_GAPS_LICENSE

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

You need

Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

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

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "knowledge-gaps": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-knowledge-gaps"
      ],
      "env": {
        "KNOWLEDGE_GAPS_LICENSE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add knowledge-gaps --env KNOWLEDGE_GAPS_LICENSE=your-value -- uvx mcp-knowledge-gaps

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": {
    "knowledge-gaps": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-knowledge-gaps"
      ],
      "env": {
        "KNOWLEDGE_GAPS_LICENSE": "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": {
    "knowledge-gaps": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-knowledge-gaps"
      ],
      "env": {

Common questions

Is MCP Knowledge Gaps safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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: KNOWLEDGE_GAPS_LICENSE

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 7 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

mcp-knowledge-gaps

Find what your knowledge base mentions but doesn't actually explain.

Find concepts mentioned but never defined in your markdown knowledge base (Obsidian vault, Logseq graph, any folder of .md files). Uses fuzzy canonicalization to avoid false positives, ranks gaps by frequency × region-diversity × novelty, generates prioritized research questions, and samples from the long tail via sortition to break confirmation bias in your research queue.

Install

pip install mcp-knowledge-gaps

or

uvx mcp-knowledge-gaps

Usage

Claude Code

claude mcp add mcp-knowledge-gaps -- mcp-knowledge-gaps

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

"mcpServers": { "knowledge_gaps": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["mcp-knowledge-gaps"] } } }

MCP Tools

Tool	Tier	Description
`find_gaps`	Free	Scan a markdown vault and return concepts mentioned in multiple notes but without their own dedicated note. Applies fuzzy canonicalization and noise filtering.
`list_gaps_by_priority`	Free	Return gaps ranked by priority: frequency × diversity × novelty (higher = fill this gap first).
`generate_research_questions`	Pro	Generate prioritized research questions for the top N gaps. Each question comes with a priority score and factor breakdown.
`surprise_research_topic`	Pro	Sortition sampling — pick a random gap from the LOW-priority long tail. Breaks confirmation bias by surfacing topics you'd never pick yourself.
`export_review_queue`	Pro	Export a CSV of top-priority gap concepts, suitable for Anki or other spaced-repetition tools. Writes to output_csv and returns the row count.

Pro tier

Unlocks research question generation with RL-weighted ranking, sortition sampling of long-tail gaps, and CSV review queue export.
