AI/ML Engineer Stack
Build AI applications with web search, documentation access, knowledge graphs, structured reasoning, and data management.
Token Budget
This stack is lightweight. Plenty of room for your prompts and code context.

Exa Search MCP
Exa
AI-powered web search and crawling with Exa. Get semantically relevant results, extract content, and find similar pages.
AI-native search that understands semantic queries — essential for finding research papers, datasets, and technical references.
Context7 MCP
Upstash
Pull up-to-date documentation and code examples for any library directly into your prompt context using the Context7 API.
Pull up-to-date library docs on demand. LLM training data goes stale fast; this keeps your AI assistant current on rapidly evolving ML frameworks.
Memory MCP
Anthropic
Enable persistent memory for Claude through a knowledge graph. Store and retrieve entities, relations, and observations across sessions.
Persist experiment results, model architectures, and design decisions across sessions. Your AI assistant remembers what worked and what didn't.
Sequential Thinking MCP
Anthropic
Enable structured, step-by-step reasoning for complex problem solving. Helps AI break down problems into logical sequences.
Complex ML pipelines need structured reasoning. This prevents your AI from jumping to conclusions on multi-step data processing and model design.
Filesystem MCP
Anthropic
Read, write, search, and manage files on your local filesystem with secure directory-scoped access for your AI editor.
Read and write datasets, configs, and model files directly. The glue that connects your AI assistant to your actual project files.
