What it is
DevDocs is a private, UI-based MCP server designed for software developers to process and query technical documentation. It supports internal MCP server integration and exports content in MD or JSON formats for LLM finetuning. The project targets environments that require private documentation processing and integration with Claude-like tools.
How it works
DevDocs offers intelligent crawling and content processing for documentation sources. Key features include: smart depth control for crawling (depth levels 1-5), automatic link discovery, selective crawling, parallel processing, smart caching, lazy loading support, rate limiting, clean extraction, and structured output (MD or JSON). It also provides an MCP server integration for AI processing and enterprise features such as error recovery, full logging, API access, and team management.
Getting started
Prerequisites: Docker and Git. Quick Start with Docker (Recommended) provides commands:
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/cyberagiinc/DevDocs.git
# Navigate to the project directory
cd DevDocs
# Configure environment variables
# Copy the template file to .env
cp .env.template .env
# Ensure NEXT_PUBLIC_BACKEND_URL in .env is set correctly (e.g., http://localhost:24125)
# This allows the frontend (running in your browser) to communicate with the backend service.
# Start all services using Docker
./docker-start.sh
For Windows users, equivalent commands are provided with batch scripts and notes about prerequisites (WSL2, Docker Desktop).
Accessing the services after start:
- Frontend UI: http://localhost:3001
- Backend API: http://localhost:24125
- Crawl4AI Service: http://localhost:11235
Logs can be viewed with:
docker logs devdocs-frontend
docker logs devdocs-backend
docker logs devdocs-mcp
docker logs devdocs-crawl4ai
To stop services, press Ctrl+C where docker-start is running.
