MCP Endpoint

The Lium docs site exposes a Model Context Protocol endpoint at /mcp. AI agents and MCP-compatible clients can use this to search the documentation and read individual pages.

For agents

This endpoint is for the docs. To call the platform API directly (create pods, manage volumes, …), use the live API page at https://lium.io/api/openapi.json. The AI Agents page shows when to reach for which surface.

Endpoint

POST https://docs.lium.io/mcp

The endpoint uses the MCP HTTP transport (JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST).

Using with Claude

To connect Claude to the Lium docs MCP server, add it to your MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lium-docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.lium.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

.md URLs

Every page on the docs site is also available as a raw markdown URL by appending .md:

curl https://docs.lium.io/providers/quickstart.md

You can also use Accept: text/markdown on any page URL:

curl -H 'Accept: text/markdown' https://docs.lium.io/providers/quickstart
