DocuMCP

DocuMCP provides two complementary MCP servers that let Claude generate, search, and orchestrate documentation for your codebase. The core DocuMCP Server creates documentation with vector embeddings and semantic search, while the DocuMCP Manager coordinates multiple Claude Code sub-agents for parallel processing. Together, they scale documentation workflows from single files to enterprise applications.

How to use

Set up Claude Desktop to run both DocuMCP Server and DocuMCP Manager, then configure them to share a single vector database. You will spawn agents to work on documentation tasks in parallel, monitor their status, and retrieve results. Use the core server for generating documentation, user guides, and diagrams, and use the manager to orchestrate multi-agent runs for large codebases. All results are stored in a shared vector store so agents can collaborate seamlessly.

How to install

Prerequisites: install Node.js 20.11.24+ and have Claude Desktop installed. You may also run external vector databases if you choose.

Install or configure the two MCP servers in Claude Desktop using the following setups.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docu-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@myjungle/docu-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Advanced configuration and start

Configure Claude Desktop to load both servers and ensure they share the same vector database settings. You will run the core DocuMCP Server and the DocuMCP Manager with appropriate environment variables to enable the shared vector store and embedding providers.
