About meanands/npm-package-docs-mcp
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool that provides up-to-date documentation for npm packages directly in your IDE. It fetches the latest README documentation from either the package's GitHub repository or the README bundled with the npm package itself.
Best for
Developers who regularly consult npm package documentation and use an MCP-capable IDE
Use cases
- Looking up npm package README without switching windows
- Comparing GitHub-hosted vs npm-bundled documentation for a package
- Quickly verifying package usage notes during development
Notes
11 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2025-08-16. Licensed MIT.
Pros
- Brings package documentation directly into the IDE, reducing context switches
- Fetches the latest README from the GitHub repo or the npm bundle
- Works with any MCP-compatible editor
Cons
- Limited to README content; does not include full API reference or changelog
- Requires an MCP client and network access to fetch remote docs
- Relatively low adoption (11 stars) may mean fewer community fixes or updates
