## 🚀 Installation

### Claude Desktop

1. Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer
2. Click "Edit Config" and add:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docsFetcher": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@smithery/cli@latest",
        "run",
        "@cdugo/mcp-get-docs",
        "--config",
        "'{}'"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

### Cursor IDE Configuration

1.  Open Cursor IDE → Settings → MCP -> Add New MCP Servier
2.  Add:

```json
    Name: docsFetcher
    Command: npx -y @smithery/cli@latest run @cdugo/mcp-get-docs --config "{}"
```

#### Prerequisites

- 📋 Node.js 18 or later

## 🏃‍♂️ Running Locally

```bash
git clone https://github.com/cdugo/package-documentation-mcp
cd package-documentation-mcp
npm install
npm run build
```

Once installed, you can run the server locally with:

```bash
# From the project root directory
npm start
```

For development with auto-restart on file changes:

```bash
npm run dev
```

The server will start on the default port (usually 3000). You should see output like:

```
🚀 DocsFetcher MCP Server running!
📋 Ready to fetch documentation
```

To specify a custom port:

```bash
PORT=8080 npm start
```
