Credentials from the publisher

SPACESTD_DOCS — Absolute path to the folder with your own ECSS / NASA standards (PDF or Word). No standards ship with the package; without it the server starts empty.
SPACESTD_EMBED — Optional hybrid search: set to 'default' (needs the 'embed' extra: space-standards-mcp[embed]).
SPACESTD_RERANK — Optional reranker: set to 'default' (needs the 'embed' extra).

Claude Code has no install link for a local command. Copy the command below and run it in a terminal.
