# fonto-docs-mcp
[](https://github.com/DrRataplan/fonto-docs-mcp/actions/workflows/deploy.yml)
[](LICENSE)
An MCP server that makes the [Fonto XML documentation](https://documentation.fontoxml.com/) accessible to AI tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop. **Live at [fonto-docs.elliat.nl](https://fonto-docs.elliat.nl/).**
The Fonto docs are rendered by a JavaScript SPA, which makes them impossible for AI to read directly. This server fetches the underlying XML and converts it to clean, readable Markdown on demand.
## What is MCP?
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard way to give AI assistants access to external tools. Once you connect this server to your AI tool, it gains access to these tools and resources:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| `search_fonto_docs` | Search by keyword — returns matching pages with titles, descriptions, and slugs |
| `get_fonto_page` | Fetch the full content of a page by its slug |
| `list_pages` | List all pages matching a keyword, with full section hierarchy — useful for discovery |
| Resource | What it contains |
|---|---|
| `fonto://catalog` | All ~2000 pages with real titles, product grouping, and ancestry paths |
You can then ask things like *"How does addDocumentChangeCallback work?"* and the AI will look it up in the live Fonto docs.
## Connect to your AI tool
The server is already running at `https://fonto-docs.elliat.nl/mcp` — you just need to point your tool at it.
### Claude Code (CLI)
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http fonto-docs https://fonto-docs.elliat.nl/mcp
```
### Cursor
Add to `.cursor/mcp.json` in your project (or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` globally):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"fonto-docs": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://fonto-docs.elliat.nl/mcp"
}
}
}
```
### Claude Desktop
Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) or `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"fonto-docs": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://fonto-docs.elliat.nl/mcp"
}
}
}
```
## Usage examples
Once connected, ask your AI assistant:
- *"Search the Fonto docs for documentsManager"*
- *"Get the Fonto docs page for clearundostackfordocument-f0187fade723"*
- *"How does addDocumentChangeCallback work according to the Fonto docs?"*
- *"List all pages in the configure section"*
- *"What upgrade guides are available?"*
## HTTP API
The server also exposes a plain HTTP API if you want to use it without MCP:
- `GET /search?q={query}` — search pages by keyword
- `GET /page/{slug}` — fetch a page as Markdown
- `GET /catalog` — full page catalog grouped by section; add `?section={keyword}` to filter
## How it works
The Fonto documentation site stores its content as XML at predictable URLs under `/static/xml/`. This server fetches those XML files directly and converts them to Markdown, bypassing the JavaScript rendering. Page content is never cached — every `get_fonto_page` call goes to `documentation.fontoxml.com` live. The page catalog (used by `list_pages` and `fonto://catalog`) is fetched once from the Fonto search index on first use and held in memory for the lifetime of the process.
## Self-hosting
```bash
npm install
npm start # runs on port 8080 by default
PORT=3000 npm start
```
## Contributing
PRs welcome. The XML-to-Markdown conversion in `src/fonto.js` handles two formats:
- **DITA guide pages** — `<topic>`, `<body>`, `<section>` structure
- **API reference pages** — custom `<type>`, `<members>`, `<description>` structure
If you find pages that don't convert well, open an issue with the slug.
