# MCP server

> Connect your IDE and MCP clients to Fimo's documentation through the Model Context Protocol.

The **Model Context Protocol (MCP)** lets AI tools in your IDE pull trusted context straight from Fimo's documentation while you work.

<Note>
  Fimo's MCP server is public and read-only. No authentication is required.
</Note>

## Server URL

```
https://fimo.ai/docs/mcp
```

Use **SSE transport** with the URL above.

## What this integration can do

* **Search** and **retrieve** Fimo docs to ground answers
* **Fetch pages by path** for accurate quoting and citations
* **List resources** exposed by the server so you know what's available

<Note>
  Exact tool names vary by MCP client. After connecting, ask your assistant to **list resources** to see what this server provides.
</Note>

## Other MCP clients

Most clients accept JSON configuration or environment variables.

* **Transport**: `sse`
* **URL**: `https://fimo.ai/docs/mcp`
* **Auth**: none

```json theme={null}
{
  "name": "fimo-docs",
  "transport": { "type": "sse", "url": "https://fimo.ai/docs/mcp" }
}
```

Check your client's docs for the exact file path and schema.

## Prompts that work well

* `Search Fimo docs for "environments" and give the top 3 matches with links.`
* `Fetch /cli/content and extract how schemas and entries relate.`
* `Find "Billing & credits" and summarize credits vs bandwidth in 4 bullets.`

<Tip>Ask the assistant to **cite page paths** so you can click through quickly.</Tip>

## Troubleshooting

Nothing appears after connecting? Confirm the transport is `sse` and the URL matches exactly. Schema or config errors? Copy the sample JSON for your client above. Network issues? Some networks block SSE — try another network or a VPN.
