API Docs MCP Server

In addition to our primary MCP server that connects clients directly to your Standard Metrics data, we also offer an API documentation MCP server. This gives MCP clients direct access to our API reference, guides, and code examples and is useful for AI-assisted development against the Standard Metrics API.

What This Does

This MCP server allows MCP-compatible clients to access Standard Metrics API documentation to:
  • Browse the full API Reference: Access complete endpoint documentation, parameters, and examples
  • Find Code Examples: Retrieve code snippets and cookbook recipes for common use cases from our API cookbook
  • Search Documentation: Find relevant guides, tutorials, and best practices
  • Get Inline Help: Receive contextual assistance while coding with Standard Metrics APIs

Setup

Our API Docs MCP is available through the following URL:
https://docs.standardmetrics.io/mcp
MCP setup varies depending on the client you’re using, so be sure to consult your specific client’s documentation. Many clients allow you to simply paste in the URL directly. Some clients use a config file. For example, with Cursor, your mcp.json would look like this:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Standard Metrics API Docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.standardmetrics.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Test the Connection

Try asking questions like:
  • “How does the Standard Metrics GET /companies endpoint work?”
  • “Write me code in a new Python file from the API cookbooks using Standard Metrics’ docs”
  • “What are the authentication requirements for the Standard Metrics API?”
  • “Show me examples of creating a company using the API”
