Kilo Code MCP Setup

This guide shows you how to configure the Sita MCP server in Kilo Code for powerful codebase Q&A capabilities.

You must configure the MCP server for each repository you want to work with. Each repository requires its own configuration section with a unique repo ID.

Configuration Steps

Open MCP Settings

In Kilo Code, click the three stacks icon (MCP icon) in the interface.

Edit Global MCP

Click “Edit Global MCP” to open the configuration file.

Paste Configuration

Copy and paste the appropriate configuration based on whether you’re setting up one repository or multiple repositories (see examples below).

Save

Save the configuration file. The MCP server will be immediately available in Kilo Code.

Single Repository Configuration

To configure Sita for a single repository, paste this configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "code-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: YOUR_REPO_ID"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_REPO_ID with your repository ID. The repo id can be copied from repos tab.

Multiple Repository Configuration

To configure multiple repositories, add separate server entries for each:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "frontend-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: frontend-app"
      ]
    },
    "backend-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: backend-api"
      ]
    },
    "mobile-qna": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp",
        "--header",
        "x-repo-id: mobile-app"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Give each server configuration a descriptive name (like frontend-qna, backend-qna) to easily identify which repository it connects to.

Verification

After adding the configuration:

Your server name(s) should appear in the MCP panel
You should see a green indicator showing the server is connected
The codebase-qna tool will be available when using Kilo Code’s AI features
