MCP Documentation Server

This project serves documentation for various applications using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It demonstrates how to organize and expose documentation content, including quickstart guides and code examples, via MCP tools.

📚 Documentation Structure

Application documentation is organized under the content/ directory. For the XYZ application, content is located in content/xyz/ and includes:

  • quickstart.md: A quickstart guide for integrating with the XYZ application.
  • code_examples.md: Various code examples demonstrating how to use the XYZ application with MCP tools.

🛠️ MCP Tools

MCP tools are defined in app/mcp/mcp_routes.py to expose the documentation content:

  • quickstart: Provides the quickstart guide for a specified application.
  • code_examples: Provides code examples for a specified application.

⚙️ Setup Instructions

  1. Initialize the environment

    uv init
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install fastapi uvicorn openai fastmcp
uvicorn app.main:app

  2. Start the application server

    Run the provided start script:

    chmod +x scripts/start.sh
./scripts/start.sh

Connect to MCP Server using Claude Desktop

To connect Claude Desktop to this MCP documentation server, you need to add a new server configuration in Claude's settings.

  1. Open Claude Desktop settings.
  2. Navigate to the 'Developer' section.
  3. Under 'MCP Server Configs', add the following JSON configuration:
{
  "AppDocsServer": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": [
      "mcp-remote",
      "http://localhost:8000/mcp-app-docs-server/mcp"
    ]
  }
}
  1. Save the settings. Claude Desktop should now be able to discover and use the tools provided by this server.

Running the MCP Inspector

To test and inspect the MCP tools exposed by this server, you can use the MCP inspector tool. Run the following command in your terminal:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node build/index.js

This will start the inspector, allowing you to interact with the quickstart and code_examples tools provided by this server.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
