+# Qdrant MCP Server Feature
+
+A DevContainer Feature that installs and configures the Qdrant MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for AI coding agents. Enables vector database integration for semantic search, embeddings management, and RAG workflows.
+
+## Migration to Native mcpServers Support
+
+This feature now uses **VS Code's native devcontainer mcpServers support** instead of post-start hooks. This means:
+
+- **Declarative Configuration**: MCP server configuration lives in `devcontainer-feature.json`
+- **Dynamic Environment Variables**: Configuration loaded from `/workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env` at runtime
+- **Standard Pattern**: Follows the same pattern as other MCP servers (see [ADX MCP Server](https://github.com/pab1it0/adx-mcp-server))
+- **No Claude CLI Registration**: Automatic integration with VS Code without manual CLI commands
+
+## Quick Start
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/python:1": {},
+    "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/common-utils:2": {},
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantUrl": "https://your-cluster.cloud.qdrant.io:6333",
+      "qdrantApiKey": "${env:QDRANT_API_KEY}",
+      "collectionName": "my-vectors",
+      "embeddingModel": "all-MiniLM-L6-v2"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Note:** This feature requires Python and common-utils features to be installed first (they provide `uvx` and `jq`).
+
+## Options
+
+| Option | Type | Default | Description |
+|--------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `qdrantUrl` | string | `""` | Qdrant instance URL. If set, uses cloud mode. If empty, uses local mode. |
+| `qdrantApiKey` | string | `""` | API key for Qdrant Cloud authentication (required for cloud mode) |
+| `qdrantLocalPath` | string | `/workspaces/.qdrant/storage` | Local storage path (only used when qdrantUrl is empty) |
+| `collectionName` | string | `agent-memory` | Default collection name for vectors |
+| `embeddingModel` | string | `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` | FastEmbed model (must be one of the supported models) |
+| `username` | string | `automatic` | User to install for (auto-detects: vscode, node, codespace, or root) |
+
+### Configuration Modes
+
+**Cloud Mode** (when `qdrantUrl` is set):
+- Connects to Qdrant Cloud or self-hosted instance
+- Requires valid URL starting with `http://` or `https://`
+- Requires `qdrantApiKey` for authentication
+- Data persists across container rebuilds
+
+**Local Mode** (when `qdrantUrl` is empty):
+- Uses local file storage via `qdrantLocalPath`
+- No API key needed
+- Data stored in container filesystem
+- **Warning:** Data lost on container rebuild unless path is volume-mounted
+
+### Important: Environment Variable Naming
+
+DevContainer Features convert camelCase option names to UPPERCASE without underscores:
+
+```
+devcontainer.json        →  Environment Variable
+"qdrantUrl"              →  $QDRANTURL (not $QDRANT_URL)
+"qdrantApiKey"           →  $QDRANTAPIKEY (not $QDRANT_API_KEY)
+"collectionName"         →  $COLLECTIONNAME
+```
+
+This is standard DevContainer Features behavior. Use `${env:VAR}` syntax for secrets:
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantApiKey": "${env:QDRANT_API_KEY}"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+### Qdrant Cloud Configuration
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantUrl": "https://xyz-cluster.us-east4-0.gcp.cloud.qdrant.io:6333",
+      "qdrantApiKey": "${env:QDRANT_API_KEY}",
+      "collectionName": "project-knowledge"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Local Qdrant Instance
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantLocalPath": "/workspaces/.qdrant/storage",
+      "collectionName": "local-vectors"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Custom Embedding Model
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantUrl": "https://my-instance.cloud.qdrant.io:6333",
+      "qdrantApiKey": "${env:QDRANT_API_KEY}",
+      "embeddingModel": "BAAI/bge-base-en-v1.5"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## What This Feature Installs
+
+- **mcp-server-qdrant**: Python package installed via `uvx` (cached, no repeated downloads)
+- **Native mcpServers Support**: Automatically configures the MCP server in `.devcontainer/devcontainer-feature.json` using VS Code's native mcpServers support
+- **Environment File**: Creates `/workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env` with dynamic configuration variables
+- **Disk Usage**: ~500MB-2GB depending on embedding model (stored in `~/.cache/fastembed/`)
+
+## Requirements
+
+This feature has explicit dependencies that **must** be installed first:
+
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/python:1": {},
+    "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/common-utils:2": {},
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Required by this feature:**
+- **Python + uvx**: For running mcp-server-qdrant
+- **jq**: For safe JSON generation (from common-utils)
+
+The feature will validate these are present and exit with an error if missing.
+
+## Features
+
+- ✅ **Automatic Installation**: Installs Qdrant MCP server via uvx
+- ✅ **Cloud or Local**: Supports both Qdrant Cloud and local instances
+- ✅ **Idempotent**: Safe to run multiple times
+- ✅ **Multi-user**: Automatically detects container user
+- ✅ **Native mcpServers**: Uses VS Code's native devcontainer mcpServers support (declarative configuration)
+- ✅ **Dynamic Configuration**: Environment variables loaded from `/workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env` file
+- ✅ **Secure**: API keys protected with 600 permissions on env file
+
+## Embedding Models
+
+Available embedding models:
+
+| Model | Dimensions | Speed | Quality | Use Case |
+|-------|-----------|-------|---------|----------|
+| `all-MiniLM-L6-v2` | 384 | ⚡⚡⚡ | ⭐⭐ | Default, fast |
+| `BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5` | 384 | ⚡⚡ | ⭐⭐⭐ | Better retrieval |
+| `sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2` | 768 | ⚡ | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Higher quality |
+| `BAAI/bge-base-en-v1.5` | 768 | ⚡ | ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ | State-of-the-art |
+
+## Configuration
+
+### ✅ Automatic Setup
+
+This feature automatically configures the Qdrant MCP server using VS Code's native **devcontainer mcpServers support**. Configuration is declarative and lives in the feature definition with dynamic environment variables loaded from `/workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env`.
+
+**No manual configuration steps required!**
+
+### Architecture
+
+The configuration chain works as follows:
+
+1. **Feature Definition** (`devcontainer-feature.json`): Declares the MCP server configuration
+2. **Environment File** (`/workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env`): Contains runtime environment variables
+3. **VS Code Integration**: Automatically loads the server on devcontainer startup
+4. **MCP Server**: Runs via `uvx mcp-server-qdrant` with environment variables from the envFile
+
+### Verify It Worked
+
+**1. Check that the environment file was created:**
+```bash
+cat /workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env
+```
+
+You should see all configuration variables (some may be empty for local mode):
+```
+COLLECTION_NAME=agent-memory
+EMBEDDING_MODEL=all-MiniLM-L6-v2
+QDRANT_URL=
+QDRANT_API_KEY=
+QDRANT_LOCAL_PATH=/workspaces/.qdrant/storage
+```
+
+**2. Verify the MCP server configuration:**
+```bash
+# Check the feature defines it
+grep -A 5 '"qdrant"' .devcontainer/features/mcp-qdrant/devcontainer-feature.json
+```
+
+**3. Restart VS Code or your dev container**
+
+**4. Test it:**
+
+Ask your AI agent:
+```
+"Show me what MCP servers you have available"
+```
+
+You should see `qdrant` listed with tools like `add_point`, `search`, etc.
+
+Then test storing data:
+```
+"Store this in my Qdrant collection: Test message"
+```
+
+### Manual Reconfiguration (Optional)
+
+If you need to change environment variables after installation:
+
+```bash
+# Edit the environment file
+vim /workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env
+
+# Restart your container/agent to load new values
+```
+
+## Usage with AI Agents
+
+### Claude Code
+
+```
+"Store this document in my Qdrant collection"
+"Search my knowledge base for information about vectors"
+"What did I store yesterday about embeddings?"
+```
+
+### Available MCP Tools
+
+The Qdrant MCP server provides:
+- `add_point` - Add text with embeddings
+- `search` - Semantic similarity search
+- `get_point` - Retrieve by ID
+- `delete_point` - Remove from collection
+- `list_collections` - View all collections
+- `create_collection` - Create new collection
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+AI Agent (Claude Code, Cline, etc.)

+```
+
+## Getting Qdrant Credentials
+
+### Qdrant Cloud (Recommended for Getting Started)
+
+1. Visit [cloud.qdrant.io](https://cloud.qdrant.io)
+2. Create a free cluster
+3. Copy cluster URL from dashboard
+4. Generate API key
+5. Add to `.env` or devcontainer.json:
+   ```bash
+   QDRANT_API_KEY=your-key-here
+   ```
+
+### Local Qdrant
+
+No credentials needed. Just specify `qdrantLocalPath`.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Server Not Appearing in AI Agent
+
+**Symptom:** Installation succeeds but agent doesn't see Qdrant MCP server
+
+**Cause:** Environment file not created or devcontainer not restarted
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# Verify the environment file exists and has correct permissions
+ls -la /workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env
+# Should show: -rw------- (600)
+
+# Check the file contents
+cat /workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env
+
+# Restart your devcontainer in VS Code:
+# Command Palette → "Dev Containers: Rebuild and Reopen in Container"
+```
+
+### Installation Fails: "uvx is not available"
+
+**Cause:** Python feature not installed first
+
+**Solution:** Add Python feature before mcp-qdrant:
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/python:1": {},
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Installation Fails: "jq is not available"
+
+**Cause:** common-utils feature not installed
+
+**Solution:** Add common-utils feature:
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/common-utils:2": {},
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {}
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Connection Issues (Cloud Mode)
+
+**Symptom:** "Connection refused" or timeout errors
+
+**Checks:**
+- Verify URL format: `https://cluster.cloud.qdrant.io:6333` (must include `:6333`)
+- Test connectivity: `curl -H "api-key: YOUR_KEY" https://your-url:6333/health`
+- Check API key is valid in Qdrant Cloud dashboard
+- Ensure cluster is running (not paused)
+
+### Connection Issues (Local Mode)
+
+**Symptom:** "Permission denied" or "Directory not found"
+
+**Checks:**
+```bash
+# Verify directory exists
+ls -la /workspaces/.qdrant/storage
+
+# Check ownership
+ls -ld /workspaces/.qdrant/storage
+# Should show: drwxr-xr-x ... vscode vscode ...
+
+# Fix permissions if needed
+sudo chown -R vscode:vscode /workspaces/.qdrant/storage
+```
+
+### Embedding Model Issues
+
+**Symptom:** "Model not found" or slow first run
+
+**Explanation:**
+- First use downloads model (~200MB-2GB) to `~/.cache/fastembed/`
+- Subsequent uses are fast (model cached)
+- Ensure sufficient disk space
+
+**Check cache:**
+```bash
+du -sh ~/.cache/fastembed/
+ls ~/.cache/fastembed/
+```
+
+### Permission Errors
+
+**Symptom:** "Permission denied" when accessing config files
+
+**Solution:**
+```bash
+# Check who owns the config
+ls -la ~/.config/mcp/qdrant-config.json
+
+# Fix if needed (replace 'vscode' with your username)
+sudo chown -R vscode:vscode ~/.config/mcp/
+```
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+### Protecting API Keys
+
+**✅ DO:**
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantApiKey": "${env:QDRANT_API_KEY}"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Store in `.env` file:
+```bash
+# .env (add to .gitignore!)
+QDRANT_API_KEY=your-key-here
+```
+
+**❌ DON'T:**
+```json
+{
+  "features": {
+    "ghcr.io/yourorg/features/mcp-qdrant:1": {
+      "qdrantApiKey": "actual-key-in-plain-text"  // DON'T DO THIS
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Environment File Security
+
+The generated environment file `/workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env` contains your API key in plain text. It is automatically protected with secure permissions:
+
+```bash
+# Verify permissions (should be 600 - readable only by owner)
+ls -l /workspaces/.qdrant-mcp.env
+# Should show: -rw------- (600)
+
+# Never commit this file to version control
+echo ".qdrant-mcp.env" >> .gitignore
+```
+
+### Qdrant Cloud Best Practices
+
+1. **Use read-only keys** for agents that only need to query
+2. **Create separate keys** for different agents/projects
+3. **Rotate keys regularly** via Qdrant Cloud dashboard
+4. **Monitor usage** to detect unauthorized access
+5. **Use IP restrictions** if available in your Qdrant plan
+
+### Local Mode Security
+
+Local mode doesn't use API keys, but be aware:
+- Data stored in plain text in `qdrantLocalPath`
+- No encryption at rest
+- Anyone with container access can read data
+- Use cloud mode with encryption for sensitive data
