The Ory Docs MCP (Model Context Protocol) server gives AI assistants direct access to Ory documentation, enabling more accurate
and context-aware answers to your questions.

MCP is an open protocol that allows AI tools to query external knowledge sources. Once configured, your AI assistant can search
and retrieve Ory documentation in real time.

**Server URL:** `https://ory-docs.mcp.kapa.ai`

## Cursor

Add the following to your `.cursor/mcp.json` file:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ory-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://ory-docs.mcp.kapa.ai"
    }
  }
}
```

For more information, see the [Cursor MCP documentation](https://cursor.com/docs/mcp).

## Claude Code

```shell
claude mcp add --transport http ory-docs https://ory-docs.mcp.kapa.ai
```

Then run the `/mcp` command in Claude Code and follow the steps in your browser to authenticate.
