Use Phinite Docs in AI Tools
The search MCP server for Phinite Docs lets an AI tool search and read this documentation while answering questions, instead of relying on generic web search or outdated training data.
MCP server URL
Section titled “MCP server URL”https://docs.phinite.ai/docs/mcpThis endpoint is public and searches all indexed public documentation pages.
What you get
Section titled “What you get”The MCP server exposes two tools:
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|

| Query docs filesystem | Read full page content, browse sections, or batch-read multiple pages |
Agents also discover the auto-generated skill.md as an MCP resource, which summarizes what you can build with Phinite (assistants, Graph Studio, DevStudio, triggers, builds, and observability).
