Rust Docs MCP Server

remote-capable server

The server can be hosted and run remotely because it primarily relies on remote services or has no dependency on the local environment.

Integrations

  • Provides access to Rust documentation from docs.rs, allowing users to search for crates, retrieve documentation, type information, feature flags, version numbers, and access symbol definitions and source code.

  • Enables interaction with Rust language resources including documentation, type information, and source code, making Rust programming information accessible through structured API calls.

Rust Docs MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides access to Rust documentation from docs.rs. This server allows AI tools to search for documentation, type information, feature flags, version numbers, and symbol definitions/source code.

Features

  • Search for crates on docs.rs
  • Get documentation for specific crates and versions
  • Get type information (structs, enums, traits, etc.)
  • Get feature flags for crates
  • Get available versions for crates
  • Get source code for specific items
  • Search for symbols within crates

Installation

This project uses Bun for development, but the built server can run with Node.js.

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/yourusername/rust-docs-mcp-server.git cd rust-docs-mcp-server # Install dependencies bun install

Building

# Build the server bun run build

This will create a build directory with the compiled JavaScript files.

Running

# Run the development server bun run dev # Or run the built server bun run start

Usage with MCP Clients

This server implements the Model Context Protocol and can be used with any MCP client. To use it with an MCP client, you'll need to configure the client to connect to this server.

Available Tools

The server provides the following tools:

  • search_crates: Search for crates on docs.rs
  • get_crate_documentation: Get documentation for a specific crate
  • get_type_info: Get type information for a specific item
  • get_feature_flags: Get feature flags for a crate
  • get_crate_versions: Get available versions for a crate
