DevDocs MCP Server

DevDocs is an MCP server that turns the sprawling maze of online technical documentation into a compact, query‑ready knowledge base. By automating web crawling, content extraction, and structured packaging, it eliminates the weeks of manual research that developers typically spend sifting through manuals, API docs, and community wikis. The result is a searchable repository that can be queried directly by an AI assistant, enabling instant answers to implementation questions and reducing the time from idea to code.

At its core, DevDocs performs intelligent crawling of any web‑based documentation. Users specify a root URL and a crawl depth (1–5 levels), and the server automatically discovers child pages, categorizes them, and extracts clean content free of navigation bars, ads, or other noise. The extraction engine supports modern web technologies—including lazy‑loaded content—ensuring that even single‑page applications deliver complete documentation. Extracted text can be output as Markdown or JSON, making it immediately usable for fine‑tuning language models or feeding into downstream tools.

The server exposes a full MCP interface: resources for listing documents, tools for querying the knowledge base, and prompts that can be reused in conversational agents. This tight integration means a Claude or OpenAI assistant can ask “What is the difference between and ?” and receive a precise, context‑aware answer without needing to browse the web. For teams, DevDocs can be deployed as a shared MCP server, allowing multiple developers to access the same curated docs, track usage, and manage permissions through its built‑in team management features.

Key use cases include enterprise software teams that need rapid onboarding onto new frameworks, web scrapers that must maintain up‑to‑date internal documentation, and indie developers who want to prototype quickly without getting stuck in the documentation rabbit hole. Because DevDocs caches results and respects rate limits, it scales from a single developer’s machine to an organization‑wide deployment without imposing heavy load on target sites.

What sets DevDocs apart is its blend of speed, reliability, and AI readiness. Parallel processing and smart caching reduce crawl times to minutes, while the structured output guarantees that LLMs can ingest the data without extensive preprocessing. The server’s error‑recovery and logging features provide robustness for production environments, making DevDocs a dependable backbone for AI‑augmented development workflows.
