# Julia Documentation MCP Server
![](https://badge.mcpx.dev?type=server 'MCP Server')

An MCP server that efficiently serves context to Claude Desktop about Julia documentation and source code.

Julia Documentation Server MCP server

## Features

- Get documentation for Julia packages, modules, types, functions, and methods
- View source code for Julia functions, types, and methods
- Built-in caching with 5-minute TTL
- Proper error handling for Julia-specific errors

## Tools

### `get-doc`
Gets Julia documentation for a package, module, type, function, or method.
- Parameter: `path` (string) - Path to Julia object (e.g., 'Base.sort', 'AbstractArray')

### `get-source`
Gets Julia source code for a function, type, or method.
- Parameter: `path` (string) - Path to Julia object (e.g., 'Base.sort', 'AbstractArray')

## Requirements

- Node.js 16 or higher
- Julia 1.9 or higher installed and accessible in PATH
- Claude Desktop

## Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`):

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"juliadoc": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@jonathanfischer97/server-juliadoc"
],
"env": {
"JULIA_PROJECT": "/path/to/your/julia/project"
}
}
}
}
```

The server will use:
- Your specified Julia project if `JULIA_PROJECT` is set in the config
- The default global Julia environment if no project is specified
- Your system's default Julia installation (must be accessible in PATH)
