Docs MCP

What cometchat/docs-mcp does

cometchat/docs-mcp gives MCP-compatible coding agents read-only access to CometChat’s public documentation. It is intended for implementation research and code-generation workflows involving real-time chat, voice, video, moderation, messaging, UI Kits, SDKs, REST APIs, and integration tutorials.

The service covers documentation for JavaScript, React, React Native, Flutter, iOS, and Android SDKs, along with UI Kit references, REST API material, OpenAPI specifications, and integration guides. It does not modify CometChat projects or maintain user-specific state.

How it works

Agents connect to https://mcp.cometchat.com/mcp using MCP over streamable HTTP, with SSE support. The endpoint is public and requires no account, API key, or authentication for documentation access. The server is stateless and exposes both tools and resources.

A typical workflow starts with a natural-language request. The agent can search for relevant documentation, inspect a complete page, identify a matching implementation bundle, and use that material to write code within the user’s project. Search results prefer current SDK and UI Kit versions, while an optional version filter can target older documentation labels.

The search index is built from CometChat’s documentation repository and refreshed when changes reach its main branch. Implementation bundles compile current documentation pages for a scenario rather than storing independent copies of the content.

Setup and configuration

Add the server to an MCP client with the following configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cometchat": {
      "url": "https://mcp.cometchat.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

The repository also documents direct setup for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code Copilot, Claude Code, Smithery, and Codex CLI. For example, Claude Code can register the endpoint with:

claude mcp add --transport http cometchat https://mcp.cometchat.com/mcp

A health check is available at https://mcp.cometchat.com/health.

Tools and capabilities

• search_cometchat_docs searches documentation by topic, API name, or error message. It returns ranked snippets, titles, links, version labels, and current-version status. Results can be limited to 25 and filtered by version.
• fetch_cometchat_doc_page retrieves one CometChat documentation page as Markdown, including its title and section metadata. It accepts a full documentation URL or a relative path and follows moved pages. Pages larger than 50 KiB are truncated with a link to the complete page.
• get_cometchat_implementation_bundle returns a scenario-specific package containing prerequisites, installation commands, configuration, working examples, common pitfalls, current source pages, and related paths.
• list_cometchat_bundles provides bundle identifiers, titles, target frameworks, and the date each bundle’s page list was last reviewed.

Available resources include orientation guidance and bundles for React, React Native, Flutter, iOS, Android, Angular, vanilla JavaScript messaging, widget embeds, moderation, multi-tenancy, presence, typing indicators, and read receipts.

Limitations and notes

The server is read-only and focuses on public CometChat documentation. It does not authenticate against an application or perform changes in a CometChat account. Code generated from its references may still require an App ID, Auth Key, and Region when used in an application. Bundle content depends on the current documentation pages and their reviewed page lists.
