tauri-docs

Mastra MCP server providing access to Tauri documentation from tauri.app.

Production Deployments

Deployment	URL	Description
Mastra Cloud	https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud	Primary choice - Zero cold start, maximum responsiveness, and consistently reliable performance.

Append /api/mcp/tauri-docs/sse for the SSE transport (best for editors that keep long-lived connections).
Append /api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp for the HTTP transport (handy for CLIs and quick one-off calls).
Mastra Cloud is the recommended primary deployment - it offers zero cold start and maximum responsiveness.

Editor Setup

Mastra Cloud is the recommended deployment for reliability and responsiveness.

Windsurf

Edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.
Add the SSE transport:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tauri-docs": {
      "url": "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/sse",
      "transport": "sse"
    }
  }
}

Save, restart Windsurf, then open mcp.json in Agent mode and click "start".

Zed

Open Zed settings (Cmd/Ctrl + ,).
Edit ~/.config/zed/settings.json and add an entry under context_servers:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "tauri-docs": {
      "source": "custom",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/sse"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Save, restart Zed, and confirm the server shows a green indicator in the Agent panel.

Cursor

Open Cursor Settings (Cmd/Ctrl + ,).
Navigate to "MCP" / "Model Context Protocol" and add a new server configuration.

Mastra Cloud — SSE example:

{
  "tauri-docs": {
    "type": "sse",
    "url": "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/sse"
  }
}

Mastra Cloud — HTTP example:

{
  "tauri-docs": {
    "type": "http",
    "url": "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp"
  }
}

VS Code

VS Code users can open the Command Palette (Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+P) and run MCP: Add server to paste either URL.

CLI & Agent Configuration

The same base URLs work across CLIs. Mastra Cloud is the recommended primary deployment for the fastest responses with zero cold start.

Claude Code CLI (Anthropic)

Global settings (~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tauri-docs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Project-scoped override (.mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tauri-docs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Enable project servers with:

{
  "enableAllProjectMcpServers": true
}

Command palette alternative:

claude mcp add tauri-docs --url https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp

OpenAI Codex CLI

codex mcp add tauri-docs --url https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/sse
codex mcp list

Gemini CLI (Google)

Create or edit ~/.gemini/settings.json:

mkdir -p ~/.gemini
nano ~/.gemini/settings.json

Add a configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tauri-docs": {
      "httpUrl": "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Prefer the npx mcp-remote command variant if your CLI version expects a command:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tauri-docs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Verification & Quick Tests

claude mcp list
codex mcp list
npx mcp-remote https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp
curl -I https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/mcp
curl -N https://tauri-docs.mastra.cloud/api/mcp/tauri-docs/sse

Claude Code may prompt for tool permissions — use /permissions or set allowedTools in ~/.claude.json. Editors that maintain long-lived connections should use the SSE URL; quick scripts can stick with HTTP.

Available Tools

Once installed, your AI assistant will have access to these tools (IDs exactly as exposed by the MCP server):

Core Tools

list_sections — Parse https://tauri.app/llms.txt to list doc sections
get_page — Fetch a Tauri doc page and return cleaned HTML content
search — Keyword search across the llms.txt index
get_plugin — Fetch plugin doc pages by name

Resources (NEW)

Static, auto-updating resources available via the MCP Resources API:

tauri://docs/structure — Complete documentation structure from llms.txt
tauri://platforms — Supported platforms (Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android)
tauri://metrics — Real-time server metrics (requests, cache, health)

Prompts (NEW)

Guided workflows for common tasks:

getting-started — Step-by-step guide to create your first Tauri app
troubleshooting — Common issues and debugging workflows
plugin-setup — Guide to installing and configuring plugins
migration-v1-to-v2 — Guide for migrating from Tauri v1 to v2

Tool response formats (quick reference)

list_sections: List of documentation sections from llms.txt with total count
get_page: Cleaned HTML documentation for a specific page
search: List of matching sections with relevance scores and total count

Example Usage

After installing the MCP server in your editor, you can ask your AI assistant:

"Show me the Tauri plugin documentation"
"Get the overview of Tauri APIs"
"List all sections in Tauri docs"
"Search for Tauri configuration options"
"What are the methods available in Tauri?"
"Find plugins related to web frameworks"
"Get documentation for the Tauri window API"
"Search for docs with 'security' in the name"
"Show me the Tauri CLI documentation"

Local Development

Want to run the MCP server locally or contribute to the project?

Quick start (development smoke-test)

Install dependencies (using your preferred package manager).

# npm
npm install

# or bun
bun install

# or pnpm
pnpm install

Run the development smoke-test (recommended):

# Starts Mastra in dev mode; this repo's smoke-test expects a short run to detect runtime errors
npm run dev
