FlightPHP MCP Server

The FlightPHP MCP Server gives any MCP-compatible AI coding assistant instant, structured access to the entire FlightPHP documentation — routing, middleware, plugins, guides, and more. Instead of your AI hallucinating API details or guessing at method signatures, it fetches the real docs on demand. No API keys, no installation required for the hosted version.

Visit the Github repository for the full source code and details.

Quick Start

The server is publicly hosted and ready to use:

https://mcp.flightphp.com/mcp

Just add that URL to your AI coding extension. No signup, no credentials. See the IDE Configuration section below for copy-paste configs for the most popular tools.

What It Does

Once connected, your AI assistant can:

Browse all available docs — list every core topic, guide, and plugin page
Fetch any documentation page — retrieve full content for routing, middleware, requests, security, and more
Look up plugin docs — get full documentation for ActiveRecord, Session, Tracy, Runway, and all other official plugins
Follow step-by-step guides — access complete walkthroughs for building blogs, REST APIs, and tested applications
Search across everything — find relevant pages across core docs, guides, and plugins at once

Key Points

Zero setup — the hosted server at https://mcp.flightphp.com/mcp requires no installation or API keys.
Always current — the server fetches docs live from docs.flightphp.com, so it's always up to date.
Works everywhere — any tool that supports the MCP Streamable HTTP transport can connect.
Self-hostable — run your own instance with PHP >= 8.1 and Composer if you prefer.

IDE / AI Extension Configuration

The server uses Streamable HTTP transport. Pick your extension below and paste in the config.

    "flightphp-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.flightphp.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

GitHub Copilot (VS Code)

Self-Hosting

Prefer to run your own instance? You'll need PHP >= 8.1 and Composer.

git clone https://github.com/flightphp/mcp.git
cd mcp
composer install
php server.php

The server starts on http://0.0.0.0:8890/mcp by default. Update your IDE config to point at your local address:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "flightphp-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://localhost:8890/mcp"
    }
  }
}
