Why?

LLMs often have outdated knowledge about mobile SDKs. mobile-docs-mcp solves this by:

  • Fetching live documentation from official sources and converting it to clean markdown

  • Querying package registries for the latest versions in real-time

  • Pulling open GitHub issues so the LLM knows about current bugs and limitations

  • Caching everything locally (24h TTL) for fast, offline-friendly responses

Package Registries


Getting Started

Quick Start (npx — no install needed)

Run directly without installing:

npx @freeapptools/mobile-docs-mcp

Configure Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mobile-docs-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@freeapptools/mobile-docs-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GITHUB_TOKEN": "ghp_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

GITHUB_TOKEN is optional but recommended to avoid GitHub API rate limits (60 → 5,000 requests/hour).

Configure Claude Code

Add to your Claude Code settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mobile-docs-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@freeapptools/mobile-docs-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Global Install (optional)

If you prefer a permanent installation:

npm install -g @freeapptools/mobile-docs-mcp

Then use mobile-docs-mcp directly as the command instead of npx.


Adding a New SDK

Create a JSON file in the sdks/ directory:

{
  "name": "YourSDK",
  "version": "latest",
  "baseUrl": "https://docs.yoursdk.com",
  "docs": [
    {
      "category": "Getting Started",
      "pages": [
        {
          "title": "Installation",
          "url": "https://docs.yoursdk.com/install"
        },
        {
          "title": "Quick Start",
          "url": "https://docs.yoursdk.com/quickstart"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

That's it. The server picks it up automatically on next startup.


Configuration

docs-config.json in the project root:

{
  "cacheTtlMs": 86400000,
  "cacheDir": ".cache",
  "sdksDir": "./sdks"
}

Field

Default

Description

cacheTtlMs

86400000 (24h)

Cache time-to-live in milliseconds

cacheDir

.cache

Local cache directory path

sdksDir

./sdks

Directory containing SDK JSON files

Override the config path with the DOCS_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
