Knows what sources are available, helps connect new ones, and manages how sources are queried.
Determine which MCP sources are connected by checking available tools. Each source corresponds to a set of MCP tools:
| Source | Key capabilities |
|---|---|
| ~~chat | Search messages, read channels and threads |
| Search messages, read individual emails | |
| ~~cloud storage | Search files, fetch document contents |
| ~~code repositories | Search code, read files, query issues/PRs |
| ~~project tracker | Search tasks, issues, projects |
| ~~CRM | Query records (accounts, contacts, opportunities) |
| ~~knowledge base | Semantic search, keyword search |
| ~~data warehouse | Query datasets, run analytics |
If a tool prefix is available, the source is connected and searchable.
FashionUnited's enterprise search is configured with these specific sources:
| Source | Tool | What It Searches |
|---|---|---|
| ~~chat | Google Chat | Team spaces, DMs, threads, editorial discussions |
| Google Workspace (Gmail) | Advertiser correspondence, partner emails, internal comms | |
| ~~cloud storage | Google Workspace (Drive) | Editorial guidelines, contracts, policies, reports |
| ~~code repositories | GitHub | api, frontend, integrations, product-database, deploy, about repos |
| ~~project tracker | GitHub Issues/Projects | Feature requests, bugs, roadmap items |
| ~~CRM | Vtiger CRM | Advertiser accounts, contacts, opportunities, billing |
| ~~data warehouse | BigQuery | Editorial archives, job postings, marketplace, analytics |
| Repository | Purpose | Search For |
|---|---|---|
api | Backend services, GraphQL | API docs, schema, endpoints |
frontend | Web application | Components, features, UI |
integrations | Data pipelines, feeds | Partner integrations, sync logic |
product-database | Product catalog | Product schema, brand data |
deploy | Infrastructure | Deploy procedures, configs |
about | Company handbook | Policies, onboarding, team info |
| Dataset | Contents | Query Use Cases |
|---|---|---|
editorial | Articles, authors, dates | Editorial history, content search |
jobs | Job postings, employers | Job market data, employer history |
marketplace | Products, brands | Catalog search, product data |
analytics | Traffic, engagement | Performance data, audience insights |
advertising | Campaigns, impressions | Ad performance, revenue data |
When a user searches but has few or no sources connected:
You currently have [N] source(s) connected: [list].
To expand your search, you can connect additional sources in your MCP settings:
- ~~chat — messages, threads, channels
- ~~email — emails, conversations, attachments
- ~~cloud storage — docs, sheets, slides
- ~~code repositories — code, README files, issues
- ~~project tracker — tasks, projects, milestones
- ~~CRM — accounts, contacts, opportunities
- ~~data warehouse — analytics, historical data
The more sources you connect, the more complete your search results.
When a user asks about a specific tool that is not connected:
[Tool name] isn't currently connected. To add it:
1. Open your MCP settings
2. Add the [tool] MCP server configuration
3. Authenticate when prompted
Once connected, it will be automatically included in future searches.
Different query types benefit from searching certain sources first. Use these priorities to weight results, not to skip sources:
Decision queries ("What did we decide..."):
1. ~~chat (conversations where decisions happen)
2. ~~email (decision confirmations, announcements)
3. ~~cloud storage (meeting notes, decision logs)
4. ~~knowledge base (if decisions are documented)
5. ~~project tracker (if decisions are captured in tasks)
Status queries ("What's the status of..."):
1. ~~project tracker (GitHub Issues — authoritative status)
2. ~~chat (real-time discussion)
3. ~~cloud storage (status docs, reports)
4. ~~email (status update emails)
5. ~~knowledge base (project pages)
Document queries ("Where's the doc for..."):
1. ~~cloud storage (primary doc storage)
2. ~~knowledge base (GitHub wiki, README files)
3. ~~email (docs shared via email)
4. ~~chat (docs shared in channels)
5. ~~project tracker (docs linked to issues)
People queries ("Who works on..." / "Who knows about..."):
1. ~~chat (message authors, channel members)
2. ~~project tracker (issue assignees)

Brand queries ("What do we know about [brand]...") — FashionUnited specific:
1. ~~CRM (official customer relationship)

5. ~~chat (mentions and discussions)
Job market queries ("Jobs at [company]...") — FashionUnited specific:
1. ~~data warehouse (jobs dataset - historical postings)
2. ~~CRM (employer account status)

4. ~~email (employer correspondence)
Editorial queries ("Articles about...") — FashionUnited specific:
1. ~~data warehouse (editorial dataset - article archive)
2. ~~cloud storage (editorial calendars, style guides)
3. ~~chat (#editorial channel discussions)
4. ~~email (editorial correspondence)
Catalog queries ("Products from...") — FashionUnited specific:
1. ~~data warehouse (marketplace dataset)
2. ~~code repositories (product-database schema)
3. ~~CRM (catalog integration status)
4. ~~chat (product discussions)
When query type is unclear:
1. ~~chat (highest volume, most real-time)
2. ~~email (formal communications)
3. ~~cloud storage (documents and files)
4. ~~knowledge base (structured knowledge)
5. ~~code repositories (code and documentation)
6. ~~project tracker (work items)
7. ~~CRM (customer data)
8. ~~data warehouse (analytics and historical data)
MCP sources may have rate limits. Handle them gracefully:
Rate limit responses typically appear as:
When a source is rate limited:
Note: [Source] is temporarily rate limited. Results below are from
[other sources]. You can retry in a few minutes to include [source].
| Source | Rate Limit Notes |
|---|---|
| Google Chat | Generally generous, watch for large space scans |
| Google Workspace | Quota per API, per user |
| GitHub | 5000 requests/hour authenticated, search API has stricter limits |
| BigQuery | Query quotas, bytes scanned limits |
| Vtiger (Pipedream) | Varies by plan tier |

When reporting search results, include which sources were searched so the user knows the scope of the answer.
The enterprise search plugin works with any MCP-connected source. As new MCP servers become available, they can be added to the .mcp.json configuration. The search and digest commands will automatically detect and include new sources based on available tools.
To add a new source:
