Appwrite Docs MCP Server

This MCP server is a tool that allows IDEs (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, etc.) to utilize the Appwrite documentation.

Usage in your IDE (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, etc.)

Cursor

Click here to add the Appwrite Docs MCP Server to Cursor

VSCode

Click here to add the Appwrite Docs MCP Server to VSCode

Claude Code

Run the following command to add the MCP server to Claude Code:

claude mcp add appwrite-docs-mcp https://mcp-for-docs.appwrite.io -t http

Windsurf

Add the following to your global Windsurf MCP configuration file (~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "appwrite-docs-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp-for-docs.appwrite.io"
    }
  }
}

Development

Before setting up, make sure you have Bun installed.

Then, install the dependencies:

bun install

Check out the .env.example file for the environment variables you need to set.

Running Locally (Without Docker)

Initialization

There are three processes involved in setting up the MCP server, to ensure we have the most up-to-date documentation available.

Downloading content: This script downloads the documentation to ./content and generates a table of contents JSON file.
Initializing vector store: This script initializes the vector store (using a local LibSQL database) with the documentation and relevant metadata.

Simply run the following command to initialize the MCP server:

bun run init

Building and running the MCP server

First, build the server:

bun run build

Then, start the MCP server:

bun run start

The server should, by default, be available at http://localhost:1234.

Setting up with Docker

Run the following command to build the Docker image:

bun run init
docker compose build
docker compose up

Usage

Inspect via the MCP Inspector

Simply run the following command to inspect the MCP server:

bun run mcp-inspect

A web browser tab will open up with the inspector interface.

Use in your IDE (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, etc.)

Here is a sample configuration file:

// .cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "appwrite-docs-mcp": {
      "url": "http://localhost:1234"
    }
  }
}

The same configuration applies to any standard MCP client (Windsurf, Cursor, Claude, Claude Code, etc.).
