Tall MCP Server

MCP server for Laravel ecosystem documentation references

This is a TypeScript-based MCP server that provides reference information for Filament, Laravel, and Livewire documentation. It implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that helps AI assistants access documentation locally without requiring online scraping.

Features

Tools

Filament Documentation

• list_filament_packages - Lists all available packages in the local Filament documentation

• list_filament_docs - Lists the documentation files available in a specific package

• get_filament_doc - Gets the content of a specific file from the Filament documentation

• search_filament_docs - Searches for a term across the local Filament documentation

Laravel Documentation

• list_laravel_docs - Lists all available documentation files in the Laravel documentation

• get_laravel_doc - Gets the content of a specific file from the Laravel documentation

• search_laravel_docs - Searches for a term across the local Laravel documentation

Livewire Documentation

• list_livewire_docs - Lists all available documentation files in the Livewire documentation

• get_livewire_doc - Gets the content of a specific file from the Livewire documentation

• search_livewire_docs - Searches for a term across the local Livewire documentation

Pest Documentation

Installation

Global Installation

You must install this package globally with npm:

# In the root of the project
npm install -g .

Claude Desktop Configuration

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

For this, you must have install globally the

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tall-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "tall-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf Configuration

Add this to your ./codeium/windsurf/model_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filament-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["tall-server"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor Configuration

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filament-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["tall-server"]
    }
  }
}

Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:

npm run inspector

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

Usage Examples

Once the server is configured, you can ask Claude or another AI assistant questions about Filament, Laravel, or Livewire, for example:

Can you explain how Filament's form validation works?

Show me examples of Laravel middleware usage.

How do Livewire components handle state management?

How do I use Pest for testing in Laravel?

The AI will use the MCP server to fetch information directly from your local documentation.
