Architecture

This MCP server uses Resources instead of Tools, allowing Cursor to:

• Browse available documentation libraries
• Search across all content types simultaneously
• Access specific documents and community posts
• Get real-time community insights alongside official docs
• Retrieve sample code with proper formatting and context

The server intelligently combines offline documentation with live community content, providing a comprehensive knowledge base for SAP development.

Development

• Build: npm run build
• Build Index: npm run build-index
• Type Check: npm run type-check

The build process creates optimized search indices for fast offline access while maintaining real-time connectivity to the SAP Community API for the latest community content.

This MCP server bridges the gap between official SAP documentation, wdi5 E2E test framework docs, and real-world developer knowledge, providing comprehensive support for SAP development with both authoritative sources and community wisdom.
