🚀 DRMS - Documentation RAG MCP Server

Real-time documentation access for AI coding tools with automatic library discovery

DRMS provides your AI coding assistants with instant access to up-to-date documentation from any library or framework. No more outdated examples or deprecated APIs!

✨ What It Does

• 🔥 Instant Documentation: Pre-loaded with 40+ popular libraries (React, Next.js, Vue, Python, FastAPI, etc.)
• 🧠 Smart Search: Vector-based semantic search finds exactly what you need
• 🚀 Auto Discovery: Mention any library → DRMS finds and indexes it automatically
• ⚡ Universal: Works with Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible tool

🛠️ Quick Install

One-Command Setup (Recommended) ⚡

# Install globally
npm install -g drms-mcp-server

# Auto-setup everything (Python deps, virtual env, config)
npx drms install

That's it! The installer will:

• ✅ Detect your Python installation
• ✅ Create a virtual environment
• ✅ Install all Python dependencies
• ✅ Generate configuration for your IDE
• ✅ Test the installation

Manual Setup (Advanced)

If you prefer manual control:

Step 1: Install DRMS

npm install -g drms-mcp-server

Step 2: Create Virtual Environment

# Create a dedicated virtual environment for DRMS
python3 -m venv ~/.drms/venv
source ~/.drms/venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: ~/.drms/venv\Scripts\activate

# Install dependencies in the virtual environment
pip install mcp chromadb sentence-transformers requests beautifulsoup4 pydantic-settings

Option B: System Python (if allowed)

# Try system-wide install (may require --user flag)
pip install mcp chromadb sentence-transformers requests beautifulsoup4 pydantic-settings

# If that fails, try user install:
pip install --user mcp chromadb sentence-transformers requests beautifulsoup4 pydantic-settings

Step 3: Get Your Configuration

🎯 Easy Way - Use Configuration Generator:

# Use the built-in configuration generator
drms config

# This will automatically detect your system and generate the correct configuration

📝 Manual Configuration:

Cursor

Add to your Cursor settings (Cmd/Ctrl + , → MCP):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "drms": {
      "command": "drms",
      "args": ["start"]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add to your Windsurf MCP config:

If you used Virtual Environment:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "drms": {
      "command": "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/.drms-env/bin/python",
      "args": ["mcp_server.py"],
      "cwd": "/path/to/node_modules/drms-mcp-server",
      "env": {
        "PYTHONPATH": "/path/to/node_modules/drms-mcp-server/src"
      }
    }
  }
}

If System Python Works:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "drms": {
      "command": "drms",
      "args": ["start"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code (Desktop)

Add to your Claude Code MCP settings:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "drms": {
      "command": "drms",
      "args": ["start"]
    }
  }
}

Step 3: Start Using

Restart your IDE and start asking for documentation:

• "How do I use React hooks?"
• "Show me FastAPI authentication examples"
• "What's new in Vue 3?"

📋 Available Commands

🔧 Alternative Installation (Source)

If npm doesn't work for you:

# Clone and install
git clone https://github.com/pate0304/DRMS.git
cd DRMS
python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements-minimal.txt

# Configure your IDE to use:
# Command: python
# Args: ["mcp_server.py"] 
# Working Directory: /path/to/DRMS

💡 How It Works

1. Ask your AI: "How do I use useState in React?"
2. DRMS searches: Latest React documentation in real-time
3. AI responds: With current, accurate examples and explanations
4. You code: With confidence using up-to-date information

🔍 MCP Tools Available in Your IDE

Once configured, your AI assistant can use these tools:

• search_documentation - Find docs across all libraries
• discover_library - Auto-index new libraries
• get_library_info - Show what's available
• search_code_examples - Find specific code patterns

🌟 Pre-loaded Libraries

Frontend: React, Next.js, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Tailwind CSS
Backend: FastAPI, Django, Flask, Express, Node.js
Python: Pandas, NumPy, Requests, Scikit-learn
Tools: TypeScript, Jest, Docker, AWS, GCP

Plus automatic discovery for any library you mention!

🆘 Troubleshooting

"0 tools available" in IDE

This means the MCP server is connecting but failing to start properly.

Quick Fix:

# Run automated diagnostics
drms doctor

# If issues found, run auto-installer
drms install

# Test if DRMS starts correctly
drms start

Installation Issues

# Run full health check and diagnostics
drms doctor

# Re-run the auto-installer
drms install

# Generate fresh configuration
drms config

# This will detect your system and show the exact config to use

System-Specific Issues

macOS (Externally Managed Python):

# If you get "externally-managed-environment" error:
python3 -m venv ~/.drms-env
source ~/.drms-env/bin/activate
pip install mcp chromadb sentence-transformers requests beautifulsoup4 pydantic-settings

# Then use virtual environment config in your IDE

Windows:

# Use Windows paths
python -m venv %USERPROFILE%\.drms-env
%USERPROFILE%\.drms-env\Scripts\activate
pip install mcp chromadb sentence-transformers requests beautifulsoup4 pydantic-settings

Linux (Ubuntu/Debian):

# Install python3-venv if needed
sudo apt update && sudo apt install python3-venv

# Then follow virtual environment setup
python3 -m venv ~/.drms-env
source ~/.drms-env/bin/activate
pip install mcp chromadb sentence-transformers requests beautifulsoup4 pydantic-settings

Quick Verification

# 1. Check npm package is installed
npm list -g drms-mcp-server

# 2. Check Python dependencies
python -c "import mcp; print('✅ MCP available')"

# 3. Test DRMS command
drms --help

# 4. Generate configuration
drms config
