Dcipher MCP Server gives your AI client a single set of tools for working with your Dcipher organization: building and querying knowledge bases, and creating, configuring, and running Insight Booster projects and automated workflows.
Everything operates on your own Dcipher data - there are no third-party integrations to configure.
Access to every tool is governed by your existing Dcipher organization and project roles. There's no separate MCP permission-group system to grant or revoke.
Files
Tool | Description |
get_file_upload_url | Get a signed URL to upload a file into your organization's storage. First step of a headless upload: upload the bytes, then poll get_file_by_name, then pass the stored name to create_file_kb. |
get_file_by_name | Resolve an uploaded file by name. Reports whether it has finished registering after upload. |
list_files | List the files stored in your organization, with name, group, extension, and size. |
Knowledge bases
Tool | Description |
list_knowledge_bases | List the knowledge bases in your organization - id, name, status, document volume, timestamps, whether it's fed by a scheduled flow, and linked Insight Booster projects. Optionally filter by a name substring. |
Create a knowledge base
Tool | Description |
create_news_kb | Create a News knowledge base from query parameters. Runs once, or on a recurring schedule where each run creates a new, timestamp-suffixed knowledge base. |
create_social_kb | Create a Social-media knowledge base from query parameters and per-platform post limits. One-time or scheduled, same as News. |
create_research_agent_kb | Create a knowledge base whose data is generated by a research-agent task, optionally run once per placeholder-variable combination. One-time or scheduled. |
create_file_kb | Create a one-time knowledge base from one or more already-uploaded PDF or Word (.docx) files. All files in one call must share the same format. Can't be scheduled - the source files are fixed. |
get_last_flow_run_status | Get the latest run status of a knowledge base flow (one-time or scheduled). Poll this after any create_*_kb call to get the resulting knowledge base id, or the failure reason if the run failed. |

Disclaimer
MCP clients can perform actions in your Dcipher organization - including creating knowledge bases, editing Insight Booster projects, and generating reports - using your existing permissions. Use least privilege, review high-impact or irreversible actions (like detaching all knowledge bases) before confirming, and monitor activity for anything unexpected.
