docs-mcp — Claude Code MCP server: what it does, how to install
A remote MCP server that serves Tandem documentation, install guides, SDK details, and agent configuration help directly to your coding assistant.
claude mcp add --transport http docs-mcp https://tandem.ac/mcpWhat docs-mcp does
This server connects Tandem reference material directly into your AI assistant via HTTP. It supplies guides for installing runtime components, configuring workflows, and integrating the @frumu/tandem-client npm package or the tandem-client PyPI library.
Tandem enforces boundaries between AI models and internal tools, memory, or external APIs. The documentation server helps configure step-level tool restrictions, human review gates, and connections to model providers like Anthropic, OpenAI, or local Ollama instances.
Because it connects to a remote endpoint at https://tandem.ac/mcp, your environment needs outbound network access rather than a local binary installation.
What it helps with
- fetch Tandem installation steps and setup guides directly in chat
- reference client SDK usage for Python and JavaScript projects
- review configuration patterns for human approval gates
- configure agent runtime policies and memory boundaries
Example prompts for the agent
- Check the Tandem docs for how to set up human approval before an action executes
- Show me how to initialize the @frumu/tandem-client SDK in TypeScript
- Find Tandem guide on connecting local Ollama endpoints
