biel-mcp
by TechDocsStudio
This is an MCP server that connects AI assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor and Codex to technical documentation indexed in a Biel.ai project. It lets the assistant search documents, read them in full and cite the sources when answering questions.

What you can do with it
- Search your indexed product docs, files, repositories and OpenAPI sources from inside Cursor or Claude Code
- Retrieve the full text of a document found in search and have the assistant explain it with source links
- Ask Biel.ai to generate a documentation-based answer with conversational context
Make money with it
A freelance technical writer or consultant could set up documentation search for client products as a paid add-on service.
An idea, not financial advice. Check the licence before charging for anything built on it.
Ways a business could use it
- Let customers' and staff's AI assistants answer integration questions from your own API documentation, reducing support requests
- Help developers or support staff find accurate, cited answers in internal technical docs faster
Can you use it commercially?
Free to use, change and sell, including in paid products. Keep the copyright notice.
Not legal advice. Read the project's licence file before building a product on it.
Add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http biel-ai https://mcp.biel.ai/v2/{project_slug}/mcp
This one runs on the maker's server, not your computer, so what you send it leaves your machine.
From the official MCP Registry (ai.biel/biel-ai). Only connect MCP servers you trust: they can act on your behalf.
Getting it running
The simplest route is to enable MCP in a Biel.ai project and add the supplied endpoint to your AI client, or you can self-host with pip or Docker.
Follow the official instructions in the project README.
Things to check
- Requires a Biel.ai account and a plan that includes hosted MCP, so it is not fully free
- Depends on the Biel.ai commercial service for indexing and search
- Very few stars, so little community adoption
- Private projects need an API key that must be kept out of shared configuration
