Docsy is a documentation MCP server from getremcp, listed in the official MCP Registry.

Tools (5)
query-docs264 tokRetrieve current, version-aware documentation and code examples from one Docsy library, or request source links only (response: links) without loading or indexing document bodies. Resolve the library ID first unless the exact ID is known. Keep each query to one concept and do not call this tool more than 3 times per question.
fetchhttp214 tokFetch one indexed search result by stable ID, or fetch a verified publisher page via libraryId + url previously obtained from link-only query-docs. The URL must belong to the exact authorized source and version; no arbitrary web fetching.
resolve-library-id192 tokResolve a package or product name to a Docsy library ID. Call before query-docs unless an exact /org/project or /org/project/version ID is already known. The query is used only to rank likely libraries; do not include credentials, PII, proprietary code, or other confidential data.
list-library-versions140 tokDefault: representative version preview. Supply limit/offset to paginate individual stable GitHub release tags, including patch versions absent from the preview. Indexed docs and upstream tags are distinguished. Upstream tags may have no usable documentation.
search68 tokSearch all public indexed documentation and return stable IDs and absolute URLs.
Security signals
