When NOT to use mcp-local-rag
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- When you do not require a privacy-first approach and are willing to rely on cloud-based solutions that might offer more extensive feature sets beyond just keyword and semantic searches.
- If your use case involves scaling search capabilities across multiple remote databases or servers, as mcp-local-rag is best suited for local data only.
