Julia Documentation MCP Server

Julia Documentation MCP Server

An MCP server that efficiently serves context to Claude Desktop about Julia documentation and source code.

Features

  • Get documentation for Julia packages, modules, types, functions, and methods
  • View source code for Julia functions, types, and methods
  • Built-in caching with 5-minute TTL
  • Proper error handling for Julia-specific errors

Tools

get-doc

Gets Julia documentation for a package, module, type, function, or method.

  • Parameter: path (string) - Path to Julia object (e.g., 'Base.sort', 'AbstractArray')

get-source

Gets Julia source code for a function, type, or method.

  • Parameter: path (string) - Path to Julia object (e.g., 'Base.sort', 'AbstractArray')

Requirements

  • Node.js 16 or higher
  • Julia 1.9 or higher installed and accessible in PATH
  • Claude Desktop

Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{ "mcpServers": { "juliadoc": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@jonathanfischer97/server-juliadoc" ], "env": { "JULIA_PROJECT": "/path/to/your/julia/project" } } } }

The server will use:

  • Your specified Julia project if JULIA_PROJECT is set in the config
  • The default global Julia environment if no project is specified
  • Your system's default Julia installation (must be accessible in PATH)

Development

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/jonathanfischer97/juliadoc-mcp.git cd juliadoc-mcp # Install dependencies npm install # Build npm run build # Start server locally npm start
