Docs MCP - Nevermined Documentation

You can use the Nevermined Docs MCP server to vibe-code applications directly from Claude Code, Open Code, Cursor, Continue, Zed, and other MCP-aware IDE copilots. Point any MCP-compatible client at the server URL below to stream up-to-date docs into your coding sessions.

LLM Context Files for AI AssistantsIf you’re using an AI assistant for development, you can provide comprehensive context files to streamline your integration:

Concise Context: https://nevermined.ai/docs/llms.txt - Quick reference with key concepts and examples
Full Context: https://nevermined.ai/docs/llms-full.txt - Complete documentation for in-depth integration work

Simply copy the contents and paste them into your LLM’s input as a knowledge base.

MCP Configuration FileFor quick setup with MCP-compatible IDEs, download our pre-configured MCP file:

Download: nevermined.mcp.json - Ready-to-use configuration for Cursor, Continue, Claude Desktop, and other MCP clients

Use this file as a reference or copy its contents into your IDE’s MCP configuration.

The Nevermined Docs MCP Server provides seamless access to all Nevermined’s documentation directly within your AI development environment. By integrating this MCP server, you can build AI agents and applications with real-time access to Nevermined’s payment SDKs and Libraries, API references, and development guides.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI applications to securely connect to external data sources and tools. Think of MCP as a “USB-C for AI” - it provides a standardized way to connect AI models to different services, documentation, and APIs. Key Benefits:

🔌 Standardized Connections: Connect any MCP-compatible AI client to our documentation
🔄 Real-time Access: Always up-to-date information from our docs
🛡️ Secure Integration: Built-in security and authentication
🌍 Remote Access: No local installation required

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nevermined-docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp",
      "type": "http"
    }
  }
}

Then restart your IDE to activate the connection.

Quick Setup for Vibe-Code Tools

Follow these lightweight steps to attach the Nevermined Docs MCP server to popular code-native AI tools. Each tool simply needs the remote MCP endpoint https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp.

Quick Start: Download the nevermined.mcp.json configuration file and use it as a reference for your IDE’s MCP setup. The file contains the complete configuration needed for most MCP-compatible tools.

Claude Code (VS Code extension)

One-Line Setup (Recommended): Run this command in your terminal for instant setup:

claude mcp add --transport http nevermined-docs https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp

Alternative - GUI Setup:

Open the Command Palette and run “Claude: Open Settings”
In Model Context Protocol → Custom Connectors, click Add
Enter the server URL https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp and save
Start chatting; the Nevermined docs source appears under available connectors

Cursor IDE

One-Line Setup (Recommended):

# Create or update Cursor MCP config
mkdir -p ~/.cursor && echo '{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nevermined-docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp",
      "type": "http"
    }
  }
}' > ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Then restart Cursor to activate the connection. Alternative Methods:

Using Configuration File:
- Download nevermined.mcp.json
- Copy contents to ~/.cursor/mcp.json
- Reload the IDE
Manual GUI Setup:
- Open Settings → search for MCP Servers
- Add remote server: https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp
- Enable the connector in chat

Open Code

Quick Setup: Add to your MCP configuration:

# Add to your Open Code MCP settings
echo '{
  "mcpServers": {
    "nevermined-docs": {
      "url": "https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp",
      "type": "http"
    }
  }
}' >> ~/.opencode/mcp.json

Or manually add the server in Settings → Model Context Protocol

Continue (VS Code / JetBrains)

Quick Setup: Add to your Continue configuration (~/.continue/config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "nevermined-docs",
      "url": "https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp",
      "transport": "http"
    }
  ]
}

Or via Continue UI:

Open Continue settings and locate MCP / Tools
Add MCP server: nevermined-docs → https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp
Reload Continue to activate

If your IDE supports MCP but is not listed, add a remote MCP connector pointing to https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp and enable it for chat/code actions. The server requires no extra auth beyond your Nevermined API usage in code samples.

Prompt Examples for Building AI Agents

Once you have the Nevermined MCP server connected, you can use these example prompts to build AI agents and client applications:

1. Create a Basic AI Agent

I want to create an AI agent that validates user requests using Nevermined.
Please show me how to:
1. Register an AI agent with Nevermined
2. Set up payment plans with credits-based pricing
3. Implement request validation in TypeScript
4. Handle authorization errors properly

Include complete code examples and explain each step.

2. Build a Client Application

Help me build a TypeScript client application that can:
1. Purchase access to a Nevermined AI agent
2. Send authenticated requests to the agent
3. Handle payment errors and reauthorization
4. Monitor remaining credits and subscription status

Show me the complete implementation with error handling.

3. Multi-Agent Workflow

I want to create a multi-agent system where:
1. Agent A processes text analysis requests
2. Agent B generates summaries based on Agent A's output
3. Both agents use different payment plans
4. Users pay once but can access both agents

How do I implement this workflow using Nevermined? Show me the agent registration,
payment configuration, and orchestration code.

4. Payment Plan Configuration

Help me design payment plans for my AI service:
1. A free trial plan (100 requests, 7 days)
2. A basic plan (1000 requests per month, $10 USDC)
3. A premium plan (unlimited requests, $50 USDC per month)

Show me how to implement these plans and handle upgrades/downgrades.

5. Agent-to-Agent Payments

I'm building an AI agent marketplace where agents can purchase services from other agents.
Show me how to:
1. Set up autonomous agent-to-agent payments
2. Implement automatic credit management
3. Handle payment authorization between agents
4. Track revenue and usage across multiple agents

Provide complete Python and TypeScript examples.

6. Integration with Existing Services

I have an existing AI service running on FastAPI. Help me integrate it with Nevermined to:
1. Add payment validation to my existing endpoints
2. Implement subscription management
3. Add usage tracking and analytics
4. Support both crypto and fiat payments

Show me how to modify my existing code with minimal changes.

I need to integrate Nevermined into our enterprise environment:
1. Connect with our existing identity provider (OAuth/SAML)
2. Implement cost allocation across departments
3. Add detailed usage reporting and analytics
4. Support both on-premise and cloud deployments

Show me the architecture and configuration needed.

Best Practices

When using the Nevermined MCP server, follow these best practices:

Security Considerations

Verify Connections: Always ensure you’re connecting to the official Nevermined MCP server
Review Permissions: Only grant necessary tool permissions in your MCP client
Secure API Keys: Store Nevermined API keys securely and never expose them in client-side code

Development Workflow

Start with Documentation: Use the MCP server to understand Nevermined concepts
Test in Sandbox: Always test your implementations in Nevermined’s sandbox environment
Iterate with Examples: Use the provided code examples as starting points
Monitor Usage: Implement proper logging and monitoring for production deployments

Performance Optimization

Cache Documentation: Cache frequently accessed documentation locally when possible
Batch Requests: Group related operations to minimize API calls
Implement Retries: Add retry logic for transient failures
Monitor Limits: Respect rate limits and implement backoff strategies

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Connection Failed

Verify you’re using the correct URL: https://docs.nevermined.app/mcp
Check your internet connection
Ensure your MCP client supports remote servers

Authentication Errors

Verify your Nevermined API key is correctly configured
Check that you’re using the right environment (sandbox vs production)
Ensure your API key has the necessary permissions
