Search vCluster docs with Algolia MCP

AI coding assistants that support the Model Context Protocol (MCP) can query the vCluster documentation directly from your editor or chat interface. This uses Algolia's hosted MCP server, which connects to the same search index that powers the vCluster docs site search.

Available tools

The MCP server exposes two tools:

• algolia_search_vcluster - Full-text search across vCluster documentation.
• algolia_search_for_facet_values - Filter results by facets such as version or section.

Access is read-only. No data is modified through this integration.

Configure your AI tool

Add the vCluster docs MCP server to your AI assistant of choice.

Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json or global ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vcluster-docs": {
      "url": "https://mcp.eu.algolia.com/1/VR12oimCRMyH3BKzGU2jVw/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Claude.ai

1. Go to Settings > Integrations > Add MCP Server.
2. Enter the server URL:

https://mcp.eu.algolia.com/1/VR12oimCRMyH3BKzGU2jVw/mcp

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vcluster-docs": {
      "url": "https://mcp.eu.algolia.com/1/VR12oimCRMyH3BKzGU2jVw/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to ~/.vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "vcluster-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.eu.algolia.com/1/VR12oimCRMyH3BKzGU2jVw/mcp"
    }
  }
}

No API keys or authentication tokens are needed. The server URL is the only configuration required.

Usage tips

Once configured, your AI assistant can search the vCluster docs when answering questions. Most MCP-aware tools call the search automatically based on your prompt. You can also reference the tool directly, for example by asking your assistant to "search the vCluster docs for sleep mode configuration."

To search within a specific docs version, ask your assistant to filter by version facet. For example: "Search vCluster docs for pod syncing in version 0.22."
