Biel.ai

The Biel.ai MCP Server lets AI tools access your product documentation through Biel.ai’s hosted Retrieval-Augmented Generation layer. This makes smart code completions, accurate technical answers, and context-aware suggestions possible directly in your IDE or chat tools by querying your docs and knowledge base.

How to use

Connect your AI tools to Biel.ai with a configured MCP server and then add that server to each tool you use. You’ll be able to ask questions like what the auth headers are for a given endpoint or request contextual product knowledge as you work.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need a Biel.ai account and a Biel project set up to enable the remote MCP server URL.

1. Create or confirm your MCP configuration with the following server entry.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "biel_ai": {
      "description": "Query your product's documentation, APIs, and knowledge base.",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://mcp.biel.ai/sse?project_slug=YOUR_PROJECT_SLUG&domain=https://your-docs-domain.com"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Additional setup for the client apps

Add the configured MCP server to each AI tool you plan to use.

Cursor: Settings → Tools & Integrations → New MCP server.

Claude Desktop: Edit claude_desktop_config.json.

VS Code: Install the MCP extension.

Start asking questions

Ask questions to verify your setup and confirm endpoints, headers, or behavior. For example: Can you check in Biel AI what the auth headers are for the /users endpoint?

Self-hosting (Optional)

If you prefer to run your own MCP server instance locally or in your environment, you have two common options: local development or Docker-based deployment.

Local development

# Clone and run locally
git clone https://github.com/techdocsStudio/biel-mcp
cd biel-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt
python biel_mcp_server.py

Docker deployment

Use Docker to run the MCP server. You can build an image or use docker-compose for convenience.

# Docker Compose (recommended)
docker-compose up -d --build

# Or Docker directly
docker build -t biel-mcp .
docker run -d -p 7832:7832 biel-mcp

Notes on access and keys

A Biel.ai account and project are required. If you have private projects, include an API key in the MCP config when needed.

Available tools
