Overview
GitMCP is a free, open-source remote MCP server that converts any GitHub project (repository or GitHub Pages) into a documentation center. It enables AI tools like Cursor to access up-to-date documentation and code, eliminating code hallucinations even when the LLM has never encountered the content before. GitMCP supports two modes: repository-specific and general server. With GitMCP, AI assistants can directly retrieve the latest documentation and code from source, providing accurate API usage guidance and reliable code examples, significantly reducing hallucinations and improving code correctness.
Capabilities
- ▪Access the latest documentation and code from any GitHub project
- ▪Intelligent search functionality to help AI quickly find required information
- ▪Eliminate code hallucinations with accurate answers
- ▪No installation required—runs entirely in the cloud
- ▪Supports embedded chat for quick start
Use cases
Setup
Depending on your AI assistant, update the corresponding configuration file to add the GitMCP URL. For example, in Cursor, update the `~/.cursor/mcp.json` file:
```json
["mcpServers": {
"gitmcp": {
"url": "https://gitmcp.io/{owner}/{repo}"
}
}]```This information was compiled by AI from public sources and may contain inaccuracies — please refer to the source.
