Configuration
| Variable | Required | Secret | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| GENERATOR_API_KEY | yes | yes | API key for the generator LLM (LiteLLM provider). |
| GENERATOR_PROVIDER | — | — | LiteLLM provider prefix, e.g. openai, anthropic, openrouter, minimax. |
| GENERATOR_MODEL | — | — | Model name, combined as <provider>/<model> via LiteLLM. |
| GENERATOR_BASE_URL | — | — | OpenAI-compatible base URL (LiteLLM api_base). |
| PATTERN_DIRECTORY | — | — | Directory with *-pattern.json files. The image bakes the 61-pattern catalog at /app/pattern. |
| EMBEDDER_PROVIDER | — | — | Embedding backend for pattern retrieval: tei, openai, ollama, vllm or hosted_vllm. |
| EMBEDDER_BASE_URL | — | — | Embedder endpoint. For TEI sidecars on the host use http://host.docker.internal:8080/v1 (add --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway on Linux). |
| EMBEDDER_API_KEY | — | yes | API key for the embedder. Required for startup even with keyless TEI; use 'not-needed' there. |
| RERANKER_BASE_URL | — | — | TEI cross-encoder reranker endpoint used during pattern retrieval. |

FAQ
›How do I install the Agent Pattern MCP server in Claude Code?
Run: claude mcp add agent-pattern -e GENERATOR_API_KEY='<generator-api-key>' -e EMBEDDER_API_KEY=not-needed -- docker run -i --rm -e GENERATOR_API_KEY -e EMBEDDER_API_KEY docker.io/olkowa/agent-pattern-mcp:1.0.3 --transport stdio. For Cursor, VS Code, Claude Desktop and Windsurf, use the install tabs above.
›Does Agent Pattern require an API key?
Yes. It expects GENERATOR_API_KEY, EMBEDDER_API_KEY, of which 2 are secrets.
›Can I use Agent Pattern as a remote (hosted) MCP server?
No hosted endpoint is published; it runs locally over stdio.
›Is Agent Pattern in the official MCP registry?
Yes, as io.github.olk/agent-pattern-mcp.
