AugmentsSAFE
Comprehensive MCP server providing real-time framework documentation access for Claude Code with intelligent caching, multi-source integration, and context-aware assistance.
Overview
From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.
A next-generation framework documentation provider for Claude Code via Model Context Protocol (MCP). Returns types + prose + examples with context-aware formatting for any npm package — not just curated ones.
