Getting startedUse an AI coding assistantDocs MCP server

Docs MCP server

Memgraph provides a public MCP server for its documentation. Connect it to any MCP-capable AI assistant to ask questions about Memgraph and get answers grounded in the current docs, with sources. There is no API key or sign-in required, just one endpoint.

  • Endpoint: https://mcp-docs.memgraph.com
  • Tool provided: search_memgraph_knowledge_sources

The Connect AI button in the docs navbar shows the setup for each client and installs the server in Cursor or VS Code in one click.

This server searches the documentation. To let an agent query your own Memgraph database, use the Memgraph MCP server instead.

Connect your client

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http memgraph-docs https://mcp-docs.memgraph.com

Codex

Codex connects through the mcp-remote bridge, which needs Node.js:

codex mcp add memgraph-docs -- npx -y mcp-remote@latest https://mcp-docs.memgraph.com

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, or to .cursor/mcp.json in your project:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memgraph-docs": {
      "url": "https://mcp-docs.memgraph.com"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "memgraph-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp-docs.memgraph.com"
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop and other stdio-only clients

These clients need Node.js and the mcp-remote bridge:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "memgraph-docs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote@latest",
        "https://mcp-docs.memgraph.com"
      ]
    }
  }
}

After adding it, restart your client and ask a Memgraph question. The assistant looks up the relevant documentation.

The assistant answers from the current docs with links, so you can follow up with “show me the exact config” or “give me the full working example” and it will pull the specifics.

Example prompts

Once connected, ask your assistant questions in plain language. It calls the docs server and answers with sources. For example:

  • “How do I install Memgraph with Docker and connect to it from Python?”
  • “I’m coming from Neo4j. What Cypher differences should I know about in Memgraph?”
  • “My traversal query is slow. How do I read a query plan with EXPLAIN and PROFILE, and what do I optimize first?”
  • “How do I configure durability with snapshots and WAL so I don’t lose data on restart?”
  • “How do I run PageRank and community detection on my graph?”
  • “How do I combine vector search with a multi-hop traversal to ground an LLM answer in my knowledge graph?”
