数据 / Data
服务器运行时读取 GitHub 上最新的 data/theories.json(缓存 10 分钟),所以仓库一更新,查到的内容就跟着更新。网络不通时使用安装包里自带的那份。
At runtime the server reads the latest data/theories.json from GitHub (cached for 10 minutes), so new entries show up as soon as the repo is updated. If GitHub can't be reached, it falls back to the copy bundled in the package.
| 环境变量 Env var | 作用 Effect |
|---|---|
CN_THEORIES_OFFLINE=1 | 只用自带数据,不联网 / Use bundled data only |
CN_THEORIES_BRANCH | 读取的分支,默认 main / Branch to read (default main) |
CN_THEORIES_RAW_BASE | 自定义数据地址 / Custom raw base URL |
开发 / Development
npm install
npm run build # 同步 ../data 与 ../theories 到 data/,然后编译 / syncs data, then compiles

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
