This guide shows you how to configure the Sita MCP server in Roo 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

1

Open Menu

In Roo Code, click the three dots menu in the interface.
2

Click MCP Servers

Select “MCP Servers” from the menu.
3

Edit Global MCPs

Click “Edit Global MCPs” to open the configuration file.
4

Paste Configuration

Copy and paste the appropriate configuration based on whether you’re setting up one repository or multiple repositories (see examples below).
5

Save

Save the configuration file. The MCP server will be immediately available in Roo 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 tabs.

​
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 Roo Code’s AI features
