UseKeen Documentation MCP Server

UseKeen Documentation MCP Server (Python)

MCP Server for the UseKeen Package Documentation Search API, enabling Claude and other AI assistants to search for documentation of packages and services.

Tools

1. usekeen_package_doc_search
   • Search documentation of packages and services to find implementation details, examples, and specifications
   • Required inputs:
     • package_name (string): Name of the package or service to search documentation for (e.g. 'react', 'aws-s3', 'docker')
   • Optional inputs:
     • query (string): Search term to find specific information within the package/service documentation (e.g. 'file upload example', 'authentication methods')
   • Returns: Documentation search results with relevant matches, URLs, and snippets

Setup

1. Get a UseKeen API key from the UseKeen service
2. Set up the environment with your API key as shown below

Installation

From PyPI

From Source

Usage with Claude Desktop

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

Usage with VS Code

For manual installation, add the following JSON block to your User Settings (JSON) file in VS Code. You can do this by pressing Ctrl + Shift + P and typing Preferences: Open Settings (JSON).

Optionally, you can add it to a file called .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace. This will allow you to share the configuration with others.

Note that the mcp key is not needed in the .vscode/mcp.json file.

Manual Setup

Using the Helper Scripts

We provide two helper scripts to make it easier to run the server:

1. Local Execution:
   # Make the script executable (first time only) chmod +x scripts/run_local.sh # Run the server locally ./scripts/run_local.sh
2. Docker Execution:
   # Make the script executable (first time only) chmod +x scripts/run_docker.sh # Run the server in Docker ./scripts/run_docker.sh

Both scripts will check for a .env file containing your USEKEEN_API_KEY. You can create this file based on the provided .env.example.

Running with Python

Set the USEKEEN_API_KEY environment variable and run the server:

Running with Docker

Build and run the Docker container with the API key:

Environment Variables

• USEKEEN_API_KEY: Required. Your UseKeen API key for authentication.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter errors, verify that:

1. Your UseKeen API key is valid and correctly set in your configuration
2. You have an active internet connection to reach the UseKeen API
3. The UseKeen service is currently available
