Claude AI Documentation Assistant

by XPE-7

🤖 Claude AI Documentation Assistant 📚

Claude + MCP Integration

A powerful MCP server that supercharges Claude with documentation search capabilities

✨ Features

  • 🔍 Smart Documentation Search - Search across multiple AI/ML library documentation
  • 🧠 Claude Integration - Seamless connection with Claude's advanced reasoning capabilities
  • 🌐 Intelligent Web Search - Leverages Serper API for targeted documentation lookup
  • 💨 Fast Response Times - Optimized for quick retrieval and processing
  • 🧩 Extendable Architecture - Easily add more documentation sources

📋 Prerequisites

  • 🐍 Python 3.8 or higher
  • 🔑 Claude Pro subscription
  • 🔐 Serper API key (Get one here)
  • 💻 Claude Desktop application

🚀 Quick Start

1️⃣ Installation

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/your-username/claude-docs-assistant.git cd claude-docs-assistant # Create a virtual environment (recommended) python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate # Install dependencies pip install -r requirements.txt

2️⃣ Configuration

Create a .env file in the project root with your API keys:

SERPER_API_KEY=your_serper_api_key_here

3️⃣ Start the MCP Server

python main.py

You should see output indicating the server is running and waiting for Claude to connect.

4️⃣ Connect Claude Desktop App

  1. 📱 Open the Claude Desktop App
  2. ⚙️ Click on your profile icon and select "Settings"
  3. 🧰 Navigate to the "Tools" section
  4. ➕ Click "Add Tool"
  5. 🔗 Select "Connect to a local tool"
  6. 🖥️ Follow the prompts to connect to your running MCP server
  7. ✅ Confirm the connection is successful

🎮 Using Your Claude Documentation Assistant

Once connected, you can start asking Claude questions that will trigger the documentation search. For example:

Could you explain how to use FAISS with LangChain? Please search the langchain documentation to help me.

Claude will automatically use your MCP server to:

  1. 🔍 Search for relevant documentation
  2. 📥 Retrieve the content
  3. 🧠 Process and explain the information

📄 Code Structure

claude-docs-assistant/ ├── main.py # MCP server implementation ├── requirements.txt # Project dependencies ├── .env # Environment variables (API keys) └── README.md # This documentation

🔌 Supported Libraries

The assistant currently supports searching documentation for:

  • 🦜 LangChain: python.langchain.com/docs
  • 🦙 LlamaIndex: docs.llamaindex.ai/en/stable
  • 🧠 OpenAI: platform.openai.com/docs

🧩 How It Works

  1. 📡 The MCP server exposes a get_docs tool to Claude
  2. 🔍 When invoked, the tool searches for documentation using Serper API
  3. 📚 Results are scraped for their content
  4. 🔄 Content is returned to Claude for analysis and explanation

🛠️ Advanced Configuration

Adding New Documentation Sources

Extend the docs_urls dictionary in main.py:

docs_urls = { "langchain": "python.langchain.com/docs", "llama-index": "docs.llamaindex.ai/en/stable", "openai": "platform.openai.com/docs", "huggingface": "huggingface.co/docs", # Add new documentation sources "tensorflow": "www.tensorflow.org/api_docs", }

Customizing Search Behavior

Modify the search_web function to adjust the number of results:

payload = json.dumps({"q": query, "num": 5}) # Increase from default 2

🔍 Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  • 🚫 "Connection refused" error: Ensure the MCP server is running before connecting Claude
  • ⏱️ Timeout errors: Check your internet connection or increase the timeout value
  • 🔒 API key issues: Verify your Serper API key is correct in the .env file

Debugging Tips

Add more detailed logging by modifying the main.py file:

import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)

📈 Performance Optimization

  • ⚡ For faster response times, consider caching frequently accessed documentation
  • 🧠 Limit the amount of text returned to Claude to avoid token limitations
  • 🌐 Use more specific queries to get more relevant documentation
