Prisma Cloud Docs MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides search access to Prisma Cloud documentation. This server allows Claude and other MCP-compatible clients to search through Prisma Cloud's official documentation and API references.

Note: This server has been migrated to HTTP transport and container deployment for improved scalability and performance. The server now runs in HTTP mode when deployed via Smithery.

Features

Search across Prisma Cloud documentation
Search Prisma Cloud API documentation
Caching system for improved performance
Real-time indexing of documentation sites
