Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

qualcoder-mcp is now Exegete

qualcoder-mcp is now called Exegete: a qualitative analysis application you use in conversation with an AI assistant, compatible with QualCoder. Its PyPI name, its command and its Python package are exegete: https://pypi.org/project/exegete/ and https://github.com/nicotem/exegete.

This package is kept so that nothing you set up stops working. It installs Exegete and keeps the qualcoder-mcp command and python -m qualcoder_mcp.server, both of which start Exegete. It is released beside every Exegete release until version 1.0.

What to change, if you want to, on each route:

  • pip. pip install --upgrade qualcoder-mcp keeps bringing the current Exegete. To move to the new name: pip install exegete, change the command in your assistant's settings to exegete, and only then pip uninstall qualcoder-mcp (which removes the old command).
  • pipx or uv. pipx upgrade qualcoder-mcp, uv tool upgrade qualcoder-mcp and uvx qualcoder-mcp keep working. These tools put only the named package's commands on your path, so you get the exegete command there only by installing exegete itself (pipx install exegete, uv tool install exegete, uvx exegete). To move to the new name, in this order: install exegete first, then change the command in your assistant's settings to it, and only then pipx uninstall qualcoder-mcp or uv tool uninstall qualcoder-mcp (the other way round leaves no server).
  • PDF and EPUB. The commands above that install exegete leave out its optional part for PDF and EPUB: write "exegete[pdf-epub]" in place of exegete (with uvx, uvx --from "exegete[pdf-epub]" exegete).
  • Settings. Exegete's settings now start EXEGETE_ (for example EXEGETE_TOOLSET); the old QUALCODER_MCP_... spellings and QUALCODER_PROJECT_PATH still work until version 1.0.

Tidying up. exegete --check-transition (or qualcoder-mcp --check-transition) lists what the change left on your computer, numbered in the order to take the steps, with full paths ready to paste, and changes nothing; with --tidy it removes the link left at ~/.qualcoder_mcp once nothing it can find could still start an older copy (an older package, a host's entry, or a desktop extension older than Exegete). It cannot see a project's own .mcp.json file: while an older copy could still start from one, keep the link. Running this package's command writes one line saying so.

Until version 1.0. At version 1.0 the last release of this package will say plainly that it is the last, and none will follow; change your settings to exegete before then.
