DocsScraper MCP Server

An MCP server that connects to the DocsScraper web API to provide semantic search capabilities through documentation chunks.

Features

  • Semantic Search: Search through documentation chunks using embeddings and AI validation
  • API Integration: Connects to your DocsScraper web application via REST API
  • Fallback Sources: Automatically falls back to scraper sources when no local results are found
  • Configurable Results: Control the number of search results (1-10, default: 5)
  • Service Filtering: Filter search results by specific service names (case-insensitive)

Configuration

The server requires the following environment variables:

  • DOCS_SCRAPER_API_KEY: API key for authentication (required)

Tools

search_docs

Search through documentation chunks using semantic search.

Parameters:

  • query (string, required): The search query to find relevant documentation
  • top (number, optional): Maximum number of results to return (1-10, default: 5)
  • service (string, required): Service name to filter results by (case-insensitive)

Examples:

{ "query": "how to configure authentication", "service": "Binance", "top": 3 }
{ "query": "React hooks documentation", "top": 5, "service": "React" }

Resources

docs-scraper://api/info

Provides information about the connected DocsScraper API, including:

  • Base URL configuration
  • API key status
  • Endpoint details
  • Authentication method

API Integration

This server connects to the DocsScraper web API endpoint:

  • Endpoint: GET /api/chunks/search
  • Authentication: API Key via X-API-Key header
  • Parameters: query (string), top (number), service (string, optional)

The search endpoint:

  1. Uses embeddings to find semantically similar chunks
  2. Applies AI validation to ensure relevance
  3. Falls back to scraper sources if no local results are found
  4. Returns chunks with scores and source information
