Enterprise AI knowledge hub serving as MCP server for secure organizational RAG contexts and AI skills.
Overview
Arkon is a self-hosted knowledge management system that operates as an MCP server, bridging organizational data and AI clients through the Model Context Protocol. It compiles SOPs, policies, and internal documents into a structured knowledge wiki with fine-grained access controls. The system features an MRP pipeline (Map-Reduce-Plan-Review-Refine-Verify) that compiles documents into coherent wiki pages with human-reviewable plans before writing, ensuring knowledge integrity across the organization.
