# DocsMint

DocsMint gives agents a way to search, read, create, and organize project documents. Use it to keep knowledge available beyond the current conversation.

## What it does

DocsMint connects an agent to a document store over MCP. Its search combines hybrid retrieval, reranking, and GraphRAG, while access can be scoped to a workspace, category, and permitted actions. This helps when an agent needs to retrieve project knowledge across sessions.

For Claude Code, connect the hosted service with `claude mcp add --transport http mcp-server https://docsmint.com/mcp`. A local stdio bridge is also available in `@hiai-gg/docsmint`; it talks to an existing DocsMint API rather than deploying one. That setup needs the API URL and `HIAI_DOCS_API_KEY`. Without a running API, the bridge cannot perform document operations.

## Requirements
- Needs: Node.js (commands run via npx)
- Remote server: `https://docsmint.com/mcp`
- Environment variables: `HIAI_DOCS_URL`, `HIAI_DOCS_API_KEY` — keys and tokens: ask the human for the values, never commit them or put them in shared files.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Platform CLI**
```bash
claude mcp add --env HIAI_DOCS_URL=<HIAI_DOCS_URL> --env HIAI_DOCS_API_KEY=<HIAI_DOCS_API_KEY> --transport stdio mcp-server -- npx -y @hiai-gg/docsmint
```
Replace <…> with your own values
