Docs MCP Server - Spree Commerce documentation

Spree hosts a Model Context Protocol server on top of this documentation. Once connected, your agent can search the docs and read full pages on demand — answering questions from the latest published documentation instead of stale training data.

https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp

The server exposes two tools: full-text search across the documentation, and reading doc pages as Markdown.

Setup

Claude Code
Claude.ai / Claude Desktop
Cursor
VS Code (Copilot)
Other tools

claude mcp add --transport http spree-docs https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp

Scope it to the project (--scope project) to share the connection with your team via .mcp.json, or keep the default local scope for just yourself.

Go to Settings → Connectors, click Add custom connector, and paste the URL:

https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project (or ~/.cursor/mcp.json globally):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spree-docs": {
      "url": "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add to .vscode/mcp.json in your project:

{
  "servers": {
    "spree-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Any MCP client that supports remote servers over streamable HTTP can connect — point it at https://spreecommerce.org/docs/mcp. No authentication is required.

When to use MCP vs the other doc channels

Channel	Best for
MCP server (this page)	The latest published docs; agents working outside a scaffolded project; questions the installed skills don’t cover
`@spree/docs` npm package	Fast local reads inside a project — no network round-trip, works offline, pinned to what you installed
Agent skills	Conventions and how-to knowledge the agent should apply without searching at all

In create-spree-app projects the generated AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md already points agents at the local @spree/docs package first — MCP complements it for anything newer than your installed docs version.
