MCP Documentation Search Server
🔍 FastMCP-powered documentation search engine that provides unified access to multiple framework docs (Next.js, Tailwind, Framer Motion, etc.) with intelligent name resolution and async processing.
Overview
MCP Documentation Search Server is a powerful documentation search engine built with FastMCP, enabling AI systems to intelligently search across multiple popular framework and library documentations.
To use the server, clone the repository, set up a virtual environment, install dependencies, and run the server. You can then use the provided API to search documentation for various libraries.
- Multi-library support for frameworks like Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and Framer Motion. - Intelligent search with smart name resolution and DuckDuckGo-powered results. - Asynchronous processing for efficient web request handling. - Robust error handling for network timeouts and invalid inputs.
- Quickly finding documentation for specific libraries.
- Assisting developers in retrieving relevant information from multiple sources.
- Enhancing AI systems with unified access to documentation.
