Using the site with AI
This site is built to be read by both people and AI. Every page is available as clean
Markdown, and the site is openly discoverable by search engines and AI assistants — so you
can bring MCP Description (mcpdesc) content into whatever tool you already use.
How this site is accessible to AI
Section titled “How this site is accessible to AI”- Open to search and AI assistants. The site welcomes search engines and AI crawlers for indexing and for answering questions grounded in its content. (Using the content to train models is not permitted while the specification is a Draft — it is a reference, not training data.)
- A site map for machines. A machine-readable index of key pages lives at
/llms.txt, so an assistant can quickly orient itself to the most important content. - A Markdown version of every page. Each page has a Markdown twin: the same content, without the site chrome, ready for an assistant to read with fewer wasted tokens.
How you can use it
Section titled “How you can use it”Copy a page as Markdown
Section titled “Copy a page as Markdown”Use the Copy button in the site header (next to the GitHub icon) to copy the current page
as Markdown, then paste it into your assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or any other) and
ask questions grounded in it. Prefer to see the raw text first? Use the .md link next to
the Copy button.
Append .md to any URL
Section titled “Append .md to any URL”Every page answers to a .md address. Add .md to a page’s path to fetch its Markdown
directly — handy for scripts, prompts, or “read this URL” features:
https://mcpdesc.org/docs/getting-started (the page)https://mcpdesc.org/docs/getting-started.md (its Markdown)Point an assistant at the whole site
Section titled “Point an assistant at the whole site”Give an assistant https://mcpdesc.org/llms.txt as a starting
point. It lists the format overview, documentation, specification, tools catalog, and more, so
the assistant can follow links (and their .md twins) to whatever it needs.
Ask grounded questions
Section titled “Ask grounded questions”Once you have a page’s Markdown in your assistant, you can ask things like “summarize what
mcpdesc describes,” “explain this section in plain terms,” or “draft an mcpdesc document
for a server with these tools” — with the assistant working from the actual content rather
than guessing.
