# Docs MCP Server

Connect your AI coding assistant directly to these docs. The MCP server lets Claude, Cursor or any MCP-compatible tool search the Applicaster documentation and pull our integration skills while you build — no copy-pasting, no stale context.

It is a hosted, read-only, public endpoint. There is nothing to install and no credentials to configure.

```
https://docs.applicaster.com/api/mcp
```

## Setup

**Claude Code**

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http applicaster-docs https://docs.applicaster.com/api/mcp
```

**Cursor, Claude Desktop, and other clients** — add this to your MCP config:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "applicaster-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://docs.applicaster.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

## What your assistant can do

| Tool | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `search_docs` | Keyword search across every guide; returns paths and summaries |
| `read_doc` | Read a full guide by path |
| `list_skills` | List the installable Applicaster skills |
| `read_skill` | Read a skill's full instructions |

Once connected, ask in plain language — *"how do I implement a Pipes2 feed?"* or *"set up a custom login UI"* — and your assistant will find and read the relevant guides itself.

## Skills

Skills are step-by-step playbooks for specific integrations, written for AI assistants. `list_skills` and `read_skill` expose them through MCP, so your assistant can follow one without you installing anything.

To install a skill permanently into your own project instead:

```bash
npx skills add https://docs.applicaster.com --skill <skill-name>
```

:::note
The server is read-only and serves public documentation. It never accesses your account, apps or data.
