Lucid’s developer documentation is now exposed through a Readme-hosted Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. This allows AI-powered editors and assistants to search and read our documentation inline, covering both the OpenAPI reference (REST + SCIM) and the Extension SDK. Whether you are wiring up an integration or building an editor extension, your agent can now pull relevant documentation while you work.
Key Benefits:
- Seamless Integration: Access Lucid docs directly via any MCP-compatible client.
- Search as a Tool: Your AI agent can call documentation search tools to find exact references.
Setup (Claude Desktop Example)
1. Update Configuration
Add this entry to your claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"lucid-developer-docs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["mcp-remote", "https://lucid-developer-docs.readme.io/mcp"]
}
}
}
2. Restart and Verify
Restart Claude; the Lucid Readme MCP will appear in your tools list. Cursor and Windsurf use the same URL, refer to their specific documentation for configuration details.
Try It Out
Once connected, ask your assistant queries such as:
- "How do I authenticate against the Lucid REST API?"
- "Show me how to register a custom shape with the Extension SDK."
