The Endor Labs documentation MCP server gives your AI tools direct access to the complete Endor Labs documentation. Instead of relying on outdated training data, your AI assistant can search and read current documentation in real time. Endor Labs hosts the documentation MCP server at https://docs.endorlabs.com/mcp using HTTP transport. You do not need authentication, API keys, or local installation.
This page covers the documentation MCP server for searching Endor Labs docs. For the security scanning MCP server that scans your code for vulnerabilities, see MCP server.

​
What the documentation MCP server provides

The MCP server provides the following tools that AI applications use:
  • Search documentation: Searches across all Endor Labs documentation to find relevant content, returning snippets with titles and direct links.
  • Query docs filesystem: Reads and navigates a virtual filesystem of documentation pages using shell-style commands like rg, cat, head, and tree.
Your AI system decides when to leverage these tools and can independently query the documentation as it generates a response, even without a direct prompt to do so.

​
Connect the documentation MCP server

Click Install in Cursor to add the documentation MCP server.To manually configure the MCP server, add the following JSON to a .cursor/mcp.json file in the root of your repository.
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "endor-docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.endorlabs.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
You can also use the command palette. Press Cmd + Shift + P (or Ctrl + Shift + P on Windows and Linux), search for MCP: Add Server, and enter the URL https://docs.endorlabs.com/mcp.

​
Verify the connection

After connecting, test the MCP server by asking your AI tool a question about Endor Labs. For example:
  • “How do I configure a scan profile in Endor Labs?”
  • “What package managers does Endor Labs support?”
  • “How do I set up GitHub Actions with Endor Labs?”
Your AI tool should search the Endor Labs documentation and provide an answer with references to specific documentation pages.

​
Use with the security scanning MCP server

The documentation MCP server works alongside the Endor Labs security scanning MCP server. You can connect both to the same AI tool.
  • The documentation MCP server answers questions about Endor Labs features, configuration, and usage.
  • The security scanning MCP server scans your code for vulnerabilities, leaked secrets, and security issues.
Your AI assistant selects the appropriate server based on the conversation context. Connecting both servers enables full access to Endor Labs capabilities.
