gophermcp

Overview

gopherMCP is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides a client access to Go documentation for any package. If you are using an LLM to edit code, this can help the LLM look up documentation and not need to rely on outdated docs it may have in its own training data.

Installation

go install github.com/njern/gophermcp

Using the server with Cursor

• Create an mcp.json file in the .cursor directory in your project root folder unless one already exists.
• Add gophermcp like this:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gophermcp": {
      "command": "/path/to/go/binaries/gophermcp",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}
