Search Go packages and retrieve documentation from pkg.go.dev through an MCP server.
Quick Install
Automated & IDE SetupCopy the AI prompt to install this server into Claude Code, Cursor, or another agent — or use 1-click editor setup below.
One-click editor setup isn’t available for this listing yet — we don’t have a confirmed install command, and we’d rather show nothing than point your editor at the wrong package or host. Follow the project’s own setup instructions, linked above.
Manual Client & Custom JSON ConfigExpand JSON ▾
No confirmed setup config for this listing yet. We only publish a config block when the install details come from the project itself — its README, its docs, or a verified owner. We haven’t found those for yikakia/godoc-mcp-server, and we’d rather show nothing than a guess you’d paste into your client. Follow the project’s own setup instructions for the current steps.

Documentation Overview
godoc-mcp-server
search golang packages and their docs from pkg.go.dev, provide the infomation to llm as mcp server
Install
You can download the compiled binary from the releases page.
Or you can install it from source, compile it by yourself:
Usage
just use your client to request. it servers on stdio
Todo
- localCache
- use a local cache to avoid search every time(From reddit user)
- searchPackage
- imported by how many packages
- getPackageInfo
- fixme: subpackage need new adapter
- get examples
- release
- use github actions to release for multiple platforms
Develop Experience
The description is very important, when describing the param should tell the client how to use one tool's output and change the format to match another tool's input.
For example, the output of searchPackage contains subpackage's name, but do not contain
the package's name. So if want the llm to use getPackageInfo to get the subpackage's info,
I wrote the description for param packageName about how to use it to work with searchPackage:
package name for search. if use searchPackages before, and user want to get the subpackage info. you should plus them for example, when user query mcp, and it return packageName: github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/mcp and subpackage client, then if user want to get the client package info, you should set the packageName to github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go/mcp/client rather than client
When using this detail description, the llm will tell you some subpackage's name after
search. You can just tell it which package you want to get info, or which package and the
subpackage's name, it will combine them and call getPackageInfo to get the info.
So maybe we should make the description configurable by user, to make the tool more useful and efficiency.
