DocuMCP
DocuMCP
🤖 A comprehensive MCP system for intelligent code documentation generation with RAG capabilities and multi-agent orchestration
DocuMCP consists of two complementary MCP servers:
DocuMCP Server: Core documentation generation with vector embeddings and semantic search
DocuMCP Manager: Agent orchestration for parallel documentation workflows using multiple Claude Code sub-agents
Together, they enable Claude to generate, search, and manage documentation for your codebase at any scale, from single files to entire enterprise applications.
✨ Features
Core Documentation Features
📚 Generate and update documentation based on your codebase
🔍 Semantic search across code, documentation, and diagrams
📊 Create and merge architectural diagrams
📝 Generate user guides
💾 Support for multiple vector databases (LanceDB, ChromaDB, Qdrant)
🧠 Flexible embedding providers (built-in or Ollama)
Multi-Agent Orchestration (Manager Server)
🤖 Spawn multiple Claude Code sub-agents for parallel processing
📊 Monitor agent status and retrieve results
🔄 Shared vector database across all agents
⚡ Scale documentation generation for large codebases
💰 Track costs and performance metrics
🚀 Quick Start
Installation via NPX (Recommended)
The easiest way to use DocuMCP is to configure Claude Desktop with the published npm package:
Add the following to your Claude Desktop configuration:
MacOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.jsonWindows:
%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
For Core DocuMCP Server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"docu-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@myjungle/docu-mcp-server"]
}
}
}For DocuMCP Manager (Agent Orchestration):
{
"mcpServers": {
"docu-mcp-manager": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@myjungle/docu-mcp-manager"]
}
}
}Restart Claude Desktop and both servers will be available.
Alternative Installation Methods
Using Smithery CLI
Install the server via Smithery CLI:
# Install Smithery CLI if you don't have it
npm install -g @smithery/cli
# Then install the Docu MCP server
npx -y @smithery/cli@latest install @YannickTM/docu-mcp --client claude🚀 Manual Start
1. Clone and Install
git clone https://github.com/YannickTM/docu-mcp
cd docu-mcp
npm install2. Build the Servers
# Build DocuMCP Server
cd mcp
npm run build
cd ..
# Build DocuMCP Manager
cd manager
npm run build
cd ..3. Advanced Configuration
Add the following to your Claude Desktop configuration:
MacOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.jsonWindows:
%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Configuration for Both Servers:
{
"mcpServers": {
"docu-mcp": {
"command": "node",
"env": {
"VECTOR_DB_PROVIDER": "qdrant",
"QDRANT_URL": "http://localhost:6333",
"EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "ollama",
"EMBEDDING_MODEL": "bge-m3:latest",
"EMBEDDING_DIMENSION": "1024",
"OLLAMA_URL": "http://localhost:11434"
},
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/DocuMCP/mcp/dist/index.js"]
},
"docu-mcp-manager": {
"command": "node",
"env": {
"VECTOR_DB_PROVIDER": "qdrant",
"QDRANT_URL": "http://localhost:6333",
"EMBEDDING_PROVIDER": "ollama",
"EMBEDDING_MODEL": "bge-m3:latest",
"EMBEDDING_DIMENSION": "1024",
"OLLAMA_URL": "http://localhost:11434",
"SUB_AGENT_MODEL": "claude-3-7-sonnet-latest"
},
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/DocuMCP/manager/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}Important: Both servers should use the same vector database configuration to enable shared access.
4. Start Required Services (if using external providers)
For Qdrant:
cd qdrant
npm run startFor ChromaDB:
cd chromadb
npm run start5. Restart Claude Desktop
Restart Claude Desktop to load the new configuration.
