The Gobi Documentation MCP Server allows you to search and retrieve information from the Gobi documentation directly within your agent conversations.

Set up

Configure Gobi

  1. Create a folder called .gobi/mcpServers at the top level of your workspace
  2. Add a file called gobi-docs-mcp.yaml to this folder
  3. Write the following contents and save:
.gobi/mcpServers/gobi-docs-mcp.yaml
name: Gobi Documentation MCP
version: 0.0.1
schema: v1
mcpServers:
  - uses: gourmand/gobi-docs-mcp

Troubleshooting

MCP Server Not Loading

  1. Check configuration: Ensure your YAML configuration uses the correct uses field with gourmand/gobi-docs-mcp
  2. Check agent mode: MCP servers only work in agent mode
  3. Restart Gobi: Try restarting the Gobi extension

No Search Results

  1. Verify connection: The MCP server needs internet access to search the documentation
  2. Check query format: Try rephrasing your search query
  3. Test with known topics: Search for well-documented features like “model configuration”
