# DevDocs-MCP: Context-Aware Documentation for AI Agents
**Eliminate AI hallucinations with local, version-specific, and authoritative documentation.**
DevDocs-MCP is a **Model Context Protocol (MCP)** server that acts as a bridge between [DevDocs.io](https://devdocs.io) and your AI coding assistants (Claude, RooCode, Cline, etc.). Instead of searching the broad web, it provides precise documentation tailored to the **exact versions** of the tools you are using in your project.
### 🌟 Why This Matters: True Context Awareness
Generic AI tools often hallucinate because they don't know *which* version of a library you are using. They might suggest React 18 hooks for a React 16 project, or Python 3.12 syntax for a 3.8 environment.
**DevDocs-MCP solves this:**
1. **Project-Aware**: It intelligently maps your queries to the documentation versions matching your project's `package.json` or configuration.
2. **Deterministic**: It relies on authoritative documentation, not probable text generation.
3. **Offline-First**: Documentation is cached locally on your machine. No network latency, no data drift.
### 🚀 Quick Start
Run the server with persistent storage (so you don't download docs every time):
```bash
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
-v "$(pwd)/data:/app/data" \
-e PORT=3000 \
madhandock1/devdocs-mcp:latest
```
**What this command does:**
* `-p 3000:3000`: Opens the SSE port for your AI agent to connect.
* `-v "$(pwd)/data:/app/data"`: **Crucial.** Maps a local folder to the container. This ensures your downloaded documentation and search index (`mcp.db`) are saved on your computer, not lost when the container stops.
### ⚙️ Configuration
| Variable | Description | Default |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `PORT` | The port for the SSE server. | `3000` |
| `LOG_LEVEL` | Verbosity of logs (debug, info, warn). | `info` |
### 🔌 Connecting Your Agent
Configure your MCP client (like Claude Desktop or RooCode) to connect via SSE:
* **URL**: `http://localhost:3000/mcp/sse`
