Docs MCP Server provides a specialized documentation scraping and retrieval system that enables AI assistants to access library documentation from various sources including GitHub, NPM, PyPI, and web pages. Built with TypeScript, it implements a pipeline architecture that handles document scraping, processing, splitting, and storage with features like semantic markdown splitting, greedy chunk optimization, and version-aware retrieval. The server exposes tools for searching documentation, finding specific versions, listing available libraries, and managing scraping jobs through a well-defined API. Particularly valuable for developers who need AI assistants to reference accurate, up-to-date documentation without leaving their workflow.
