Firma.dev documentation is now available as an MCP server. You can connect it directly to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or any other AI tool that supports the Model Context Protocol.

This means you can ask questions about the Firma.dev API and get answers pulled straight from our docs, without copy-pasting or switching tabs.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol is an open standard introduced by Anthropic that lets AI tools connect to external data sources. Instead of relying on training data that might be outdated, the AI can search live documentation and return accurate, up-to-date answers.

Think of it as giving your AI assistant direct access to the source material.

Why This Matters

When you're integrating an API, you spend a lot of time bouncing between your code editor and documentation. MCP collapses that loop. You can ask Claude or Cursor how to create a signing request, how to configure webhooks, or how to set up a custom email domain, and it pulls the answer directly from Firma.dev docs.

No hallucinated endpoints. No outdated examples. Just the current documentation.

  3. Add to your mcp.json:

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "firma-dev": {
          "url": "https://docs.firma.dev/mcp"
        }
      }
    }
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "firma-dev": {
          "url": "https://docs.firma.dev/mcp"
        }
      }
    }
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "firma-dev": {
          "url": "https://docs.firma.dev/mcp"
        }
      }
    }

    Claude Code:

    claude mcp add firma-dev --transport sse https://docs.firma.dev/mcp
    claude mcp add firma-dev --transport sse https://docs.firma.dev/mcp
    claude mcp add firma-dev --transport sse https://docs.firma.dev/mcp

    VS Code:

    Create

    .vscode/mcp.json:

    {
      "servers": {
        "firma-dev": {
          "url": "https://docs.firma.dev/mcp"
        }
      }
    }
    {
      "servers": {
        "firma-dev": {
          "url": "https://docs.firma.dev/mcp"
        }
      }
    }
    {
      "servers": {
        "firma-dev": {
          "url": "https://docs.firma.dev/mcp"
        }
      }
    }

What You Can Ask

Once connected, try questions like:

  • "How do I create a signing request from a template?"

  • "What webhook events does Firma.dev send?"

  • "How do I set up a custom email domain for my workspace?"

  • "What's the difference between the template editor and signing request editor?"

The AI will search our documentation and return relevant answers with context.
