Parchment Documentation MCP Server

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI assistants to access external data sources and tools. Parchment hosts an MCP server at https://docs.parchmenthealth.io/mcp that gives AI assistants direct access to our developer documentation and OpenAPI spec, making it easier to build integrations.

​
Why Use MCP?

  • Accurate Information: AI assistants get direct access to current documentation rather than relying on training data
  • Code Examples: Access to real code samples from our integration guide
  • OpenAPI Spec: Full API specification for accurate endpoint details
  • Search: Natural language search across all documentation

​
Installation

Connect directly to our hosted MCP server:
claude mcp add --transport http parchment-docs https://docs.parchmenthealth.io/mcp
Or add to your ~/.claude.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "parchment-docs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://docs.parchmenthealth.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
After adding, restart Claude Code and verify with /mcp command.

​
