-# DS-MCP-FLOWISE
-
-MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI assistants (Claude, GPT, etc.) deep knowledge of [Flowise](https://flowiseai.com/) nodes so they can help you design, build, and deploy chatflows and agentflows.
-
-## What This Does
-
-When connected to Claude Code (or other MCP clients), this server lets the AI:
-- Know all 311 Flowise nodes and their configurations
-- Understand how nodes connect together
-- Design complete flows based on your requirements
-- Output valid JSON you can import into Flowise
-- **Deploy flows directly to your Flowise instance** (optional API integration)
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### 1. Add to Claude Code
-
-Add this to your Claude Code MCP configuration (`claude_desktop_config.json` or via settings):
-
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "flowise": {
-      "command": "npx",
-      "args": ["-y", "ds-mcp-flowise"]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-That's it. No cloning, no building. The `npx` command downloads and runs it automatically.
-
-### 2. Start a Conversation
-
-Open Claude Code and describe what you want to build:
-
-> "Build me a RAG chatbot that uses Pinecone for vector storage and OpenAI for the LLM"
-
-### 3. Get Your Flow
-
-Claude will use the MCP tools to:
-- Find the right nodes (ChatOpenAI, Pinecone, embeddings, etc.)
-- Check their schemas and required inputs
-- Design the complete flow
-- Output the JSON with all nodes and edges
-
-### 4. Import into Flowise
-
-1. Open Flowise
-2. Create a new Chatflow or Agentflow
-3. Click the menu (⋮) → **Load Chatflow**
-4. Paste the JSON Claude gave you
-5. Configure credentials (API keys) for each node
-6. Save and test
-
-## Flowise API Integration (Optional)
-
-Instead of manually importing JSON, you can connect directly to your Flowise instance to create, update, and manage chatflows via the API.
-
-### Setup
-
-1. Create a `.env` file in the project root (or in your working directory):
-
-```bash
-FLOWISE_API_URL=https://your-flowise-instance.com
-FLOWISE_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
-```
-
-2. Get your API key from Flowise:
-   - Open your Flowise instance
-   - Go to **Settings** → **API Keys**
-   - Create a new API key or copy an existing one
-
-3. The MCP server will automatically load credentials from `.env` when it starts.
-
-### Usage
-
-Once configured, you can ask Claude:
-
-- "Test the connection to my Flowise instance"
-- "List all my chatflows"
-- "Create a new chatflow with this design and deploy it"
-- "Update the existing chatflow with these changes"
-
-> **Note:** The Flowise API currently only supports **chatflows**. Agentflows must be created through the Flowise UI by importing the generated JSON.
-
-### Security Notes
-
-- Never commit your `.env` file to version control
-- The `.env` file is already in `.gitignore`
-- API keys should be kept private and rotated periodically
-
-## Alternative Installation Methods
-
-### Global Install (npm)
-
-```bash
-npm install -g ds-mcp-flowise
-```
-
-Then in your MCP config:
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "flowise": {
-      "command": "ds-mcp-flowise"
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Build from Source
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/dtsoden/DS-MCP-FLOWISE.git
-cd DS-MCP-FLOWISE
-npm install
-npm run build
-```
-
-Then in your MCP config:
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "flowise": {
-      "command": "node",
-      "args": ["/path/to/DS-MCP-FLOWISE/dist/index.js"]
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-

-
-## Example Prompts
-
-Once connected, try asking Claude:
-
-- "What vector stores does Flowise support?"
-- "Show me how to build a simple chatbot with memory"
-- "Create a RAG flow using Pinecone and Claude"
-- "What nodes can connect to a ConversationChain?"
-- "Build me an agent that can search the web and query a database"
-
-## What's Included
-
-- **311 Flowise nodes** with full schemas
-- **1,915 input parameters** documented
-- **26 node categories** (Chat Models, Vector Stores, Tools, etc.)
-- **64 marketplace templates** as examples
-- **SQLite database** for fast queries
-
-## Updating the Node Database

-To update with the latest Flowise nodes:
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/dtsoden/DS-MCP-FLOWISE.git
-cd DS-MCP-FLOWISE
-npm install
-
-# This clones Flowise and extracts all node definitions
-npm run extract
-
-# This rebuilds the SQLite database
-npm run prepare-db
-
-npm run build
-```
