🔌 Integration with MCP Clients

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf

Add this to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docmost": {
      "command": "docmost-mcp",
      "env": {
        "DOCMOST_BASE_URL": "https://docmost.example.com",
        "DOCMOST_API_TOKEN": "your-api-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Tip: If you installed with pip, use the full path to the docmost-mcp executable. Find it with: which docmost-mcp (macOS/Linux) or where docmost-mcp (Windows).

🏗️ Architecture

src/docmost_mcp/
├── __init__.py         # Package metadata and version
├── __main__.py         # CLI entry point
├── config.py           # Environment validation (Pydantic BaseSettings)
├── exceptions.py       # Custom exception hierarchy
├── client.py           # Async Docmost API client (httpx)
└── server.py           # MCP tool definitions (FastMCP)

Design Principles

1. Fail Fast — Configuration is validated at startup. Missing env vars crash immediately with a clear error, not mid-request.
2. One Client, Many Tools — A single DocmostClient with connection pooling handles all API calls. No per-request client creation.
3. Typed Exceptions — Every failure mode has its own exception class (DocmostAuthError, DocmostNotFoundError, etc.) for precise error messages.
4. LLM-Friendly Errors — MCP tools catch exceptions and return descriptive strings, never raw tracebacks.
5. Dual Auth — Supports both API token (Enterprise) and email/password login (Community) with automatic session refresh.

🔐 Authentication

Community Edition

Uses POST /api/auth/login to obtain a session cookie. The server automatically re-authenticates on 401 (session expired).

Required env vars: DOCMOST_BASE_URL, DOCMOST_EMAIL, DOCMOST_PASSWORD

Enterprise / Business Edition

Uses Authorization: Bearer <token> header. Generate an API token from your Docmost admin panel.

Required env vars: DOCMOST_BASE_URL, DOCMOST_API_TOKEN

If both are configured, the API token takes precedence (no login round-trip needed).
