📊 What's Inside?

Knowledge Coverage

Key Features

• 🔥 Full-Text Search: SQLite FTS5 engine for sub-second searches across millions of lines

• 📈 Quality Scoring: Curated repos ranked by documentation quality (1-10 scale)

• 🏷️ Smart Categorization: Browse by technology area or programming language

• 🔄 Auto-Discovery: Continuously finds new popular repositories (10k+ stars)

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.8 or higher

• GitHub Personal Access Token (optional but recommended)

• An MCP-compatible AI assistant (Claude Desktop, Continue.dev, etc.)

Installation

1. Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/unified-docs-hub.git
cd unified-docs-hub

2. Set up Python environment

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure your MCP client

For Claude Desktop, add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "unified-docs-hub": {
      "command": "/path/to/unified-docs-hub/venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["/path/to/unified-docs-hub/unified_docs_hub_server.py"],
      "env": {
        "GITHUB_TOKEN": "your-github-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

4. Initial indexing (optional - the server will do this automatically)

# Index all curated repositories
python -c "import asyncio; from unified_docs_hub_server import index_repositories; asyncio.run(index_repositories('smart'))"
