Docfork tools (4)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
docfork_read_urlFetches and returns the full content of a documentation page as markdown. This is ESSENTIAL for getting complete, detailed information after searching. Always use this to read URLs from docfork_search_docs results to get the actual documentation content.
docfork_search_docsSearch documentation across GitHub repositories or the web. For targeted searches INSIDE a specific library's documentation, use the docforkIdentifier parameter (author/repo format). Extract from GitHub URLs (e.g., github.com/facebook/react → 'facebook/react') and include in ALL subsequent searches about that library for focused, accurate results.
fetchRetrieve complete document content by ID for detailed analysis and citation.
searchSearch for documents using semantic search across web documentation and GitHub. Returns a list of relevant search results.

What its tools let an agent do: 4 read
Install Docfork in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code
Runs npx -y docfork on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
claude mcp add docfork -- npx -y docfork

[!CAUTION]
Docfork has shut down as of June 14, 2026.
The MCP server, CLI, and all hosted endpoints are offline and will not return. API keys no longer work, and npx dgrep setup will fail. Thank you to everyone who used the service.
Up-to-date docs for AI coding agents.
AI agents hallucinate APIs, bloat context with stale docs, and write code against outdated signatures. Docfork serves up-to-date documentation directly in Cursor, Claude Code, and Windsurf.

npx dgrep setupInstalls the Docfork MCP server in your IDE. Detects your installed agents and writes the config file; sign in to Docfork on first use, no API key needed. Target one with --agent claude-code (also: cursor, codex, opencode, vscode, windsurf, amp, factory, zed).
Your agent now has two tools:
No prompt suffix needed:
Set up server-side rendering with Next.js App Router.Or search from the terminal:
dgrep search "middleware redirect based on authentication" -l vercel/next.js
dgrep search "server actions with forms" -l vercel/next.jsQuickstart → · dgrep docs → · CLI reference →
Your own docs
Index any public or private GitHub repository as a custom library. Your internal APIs, SDKs, and runbooks become searchable by your agents — same pipeline as public libraries. GitHub integration setup →
Teams
Free: 1,000 requests/month per organization. For team rollout, commit the MCP config to your repo:
// .cursor/mcp.json (committed to git, picked up by every engineer)

"mcpServers": {
"docfork": {
"url": "https://mcp.docfork.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"DOCFORK_API_KEY": "YOUR_TEAM_API_KEY"

}
}Share API keys and Cabinets across your organization. Docfork doesn't store your code or prompts. Security → · Pricing →
