Using these docs with any MCP client

View .md Open in ChatGPT Open in Claude

grandocs runs a stateless Model Context Protocol server so any MCP-capable client can search the docs live. One endpoint, no account, no key.

https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp

Transport is Streamable HTTP (POST /mcp).

Connect in one click

Claude Code and Codex take a single command; Cursor and VS Code add the server with a real install deep link. Claude Desktop has no install URL scheme, so the button copies the endpoint — paste it into Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector (Pro/Max/Team/Enterprise).

Claude Code One command in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http grandocs https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp

Claude Desktop Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector

Codex CLI One command in your terminal

codex mcp add grandocs --url https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp

Tools

Tool	What it does
`search_docs`	Full-text search across all products; returns ranked pages with the page URL and the raw-markdown `.md` URL.
`get_page`	Returns the raw markdown of one page by its path (e.g. `grandma3/2-4/cue_store`).
`command_lookup`	Resolves a grandMA keyword (Store, Assign, At, MAtricks…) to its reference page and returns the syntax.
`list_products_versions`	The full product / version / language coverage matrix.

Every result ends with a source link and an “unofficial mirror” note so the model cites correctly.

Add it to your client

claude mcp add --transport http grandocs https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp

~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Settings → MCP → Add server):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "grandocs": { "url": "https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp" }
  }
}

.vscode/mcp.json in your workspace (then use Copilot agent mode):

{
  "servers": {
    "grandocs": { "type": "http", "url": "https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp" }
  }
}

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector (Pro/Max/Team/Enterprise), then paste the URL:

https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp

Claude Desktop ignores remote servers added via claude_desktop_config.json — use the Connectors UI. On older builds without it, bridge over stdio with mcp-remote:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "grandocs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

One command:

codex mcp add grandocs --url https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp

Or add the block to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.grandocs]
url = "https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp"

On Pro / Business / Enterprise: Settings → Connectors (Developer mode for custom servers) → add the MCP server URL https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp.

Quick test

Any MCP inspector or client can verify it:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector
# point it at https://grandocs-mcp.samcarlton.com/mcp, then run tools/list

A GET of the root returns a small JSON health document listing the tools.
