mcp-local-rag and mcp-rag-server

These are ecosystem siblings—both MCP server implementations of RAG functionality that could serve complementary roles, with the shinpr tool emphasizing local-first semantic/keyword search for developers while the Daniel-Barta tool focuses on flexible ingest and citation workflows, allowing users to choose based on their specific retrieval needs rather than forcing a choice between them.
