Docs for Your Agent

Give your coding agent FrontMCP's docs for the release your project uses, through FrontMCP's own MCP server at mcp.frontmcp.dev.

Covers FrontMCP 1.10.7 as of October 20, 2026

A coding agent knows FrontMCP from whatever release it was trained on, if any. FrontMCP's docs server gives it these docs instead, over MCP, for the release your project uses: it searches them, reads pages and sections, looks up an API by name, returns runnable examples, and says what changed between two releases.

You will learn

• How to connect your agent to the docs server
• How to pin it to the FrontMCP release your project uses
• What each of its tools does

Connecting your agent

The server is at https://mcp.frontmcp.dev, and in the MCP Registry as dev.frontmcp.mcp/frontmcp. It needs no key and no sign-in, and it only reads. With Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http frontmcp-docs https://mcp.frontmcp.dev

Clients that keep their servers in a JSON file take an entry with the URL:

{ "mcpServers": { "frontmcp-docs": { "url": "https://mcp.frontmcp.dev" } } }

The field that marks an entry as a URL differs between clients (type, transport, or none), so check your client's documentation for it. The server speaks MCP from 2024-11-05 to 2026-07-28 over Streamable HTTP, as any FrontMCP server does.

Pinning a release

https://mcp.frontmcp.dev serves the docs of the latest release. To pin one, add it to the URL:

URL	Docs for
https://mcp.frontmcp.dev	The latest release
https://mcp.frontmcp.dev/1.9.4	That release
https://mcp.frontmcp.dev/1.9	The newest patch of 1.9

The server's earlier URL, https://frontmcp.dev/mcp, still works, with the same pins after it: https://frontmcp.dev/mcp/1.9.4.

The server documents each release from 1.9.2 on, and get_versions lists them; the versions page has every release's notes. Without a pin, your agent can find the release itself: the server tells it to call resolve_version with your project's package.json or lockfile first, and to pass the release it gets to the other tools.

What it offers

Tool	What it does
resolve_version	Which documented release a project should read, from its lockfile (npm, Yarn or pnpm), its package.json or a version range, and the URL that pins it
get_versions	The documented releases, newest first, with their release notes
search_docs	Full-text search over the docs, by section: the page, the heading, the path with its #anchor, and the start of its text
get_page	A page as Markdown, or one section of it. It takes a path, a frontmcp.dev URL, or a link to the old docs on docs.agentfront.dev, which it maps to its page here
list_pages	The docs as the sidebar has them: Learn, Reference, Examples and Compare
lookup_api	An API by name: a decorator (@Tool), a function (createFetchHandler), an option, an error code (TOOL_NOT_FOUND) or a CLI flag, with what the Reference says and where
get_example	A page's Playgrounds, or one's files and tests, with how to run them in your project
whats_changed	Between two releases: their release notes, every "Changed in" note in the docs with its page, and the pages that changed
get_skill	FrontMCP's skills catalog: instructions for building with FrontMCP, and their reference files

It also has one prompt, upgrade_frontmcp, which asks your agent to move a project from one release to another, change by change.

Deep dive: How the server is built It's a FrontMCP server on a Cloudflare Worker: createFetchHandler() behind a Worker entry, as Cloudflare Workers describes. Each release's docs come from this site's history: when a release moves the site to the next one, the outgoing release's pages are kept, and the server reads them as Markdown, with a search index and an index of the Reference's APIs, from the Worker's static assets.

Troubleshooting

Too many requests: at most 120 a minute from one address.

The server answers each address 120 requests a minute, then 429 with Retry-After: 60. Wait a minute, or have your agent search before it reads pages one by one.

FrontMCP 1.8.7 isn't documented here.

The server documents releases from 1.9.2 on. Pin the nearest one, or ask whats_changed with from set to your release to see what changed since, which also covers releases the server doesn't document.
