> ⚠️ **BETA SOFTWARE** - This project is in early development. Features may not work as expected and breaking changes may occur without notice.

Are you creating or modifying a Laravel app? Hook this MCP up to your AI assistant and immediately get access to:
- The latest Laravel documentation, for all versions from 6.x
- Intelligent Laravel package recommendations based on the context from your codebase, and what you're trying to accomplish.

This is like having a very book-smart and up-to-date Laravel dev sit next to you as you code your application.

## Update Frequency

This application is written in a way to maximize the value out of GitHub Actions. Every day, it retrieves the latest Laravel documentation for all versions since 6.x (sometimes the old docs get updated too!). If it finds any updates, a new patch release will automatically be generated here and then distributed to both Pypi and GHCR for your consumption. Mmm, delicious.

## Installation

### Quick Install via Smithery

```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install @brianirish/laravel-docs-mcp --client claude
```

*Note: Smithery automatically configures your AI client. Skip to "First Run" below.*

### Install from PyPI

```bash
pip install laravel-docs-mcp
```

### Docker

```bash
docker run ghcr.io/brianirish/laravel-docs-mcp:latest
```

## Usage

### Smithery Installation
No additional configuration needed - Smithery automatically sets up your AI client.

### PyPI Installation
Add this to your AI client's MCP configuration:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "laravel-docs": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["laravel_docs_server.py"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Docker Installation
Add this to your AI client's MCP configuration:

```json

    "laravel-docs": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "--rm", "-i", "ghcr.io/brianirish/laravel-docs-mcp:latest"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Custom Options
For PyPI installations, add options to the args array:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "laravel-docs": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": [
        "laravel_docs_server.py",
        "--version", "11.x",
        "--log-level", "INFO",
        "--update-docs"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

### Available Options

| Option | Description | Default |
|--------|-------------|---------|
| `--version VERSION` | Laravel version (e.g., "12.x", "11.x") | Latest |
| `--docs-path PATH` | Documentation directory | `./docs` |
| `--log-level LEVEL` | DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL | INFO |
| `--update-docs` | Update documentation on startup | false |
