Quick Start

Build a graph from your docs and start querying it in under 2 minutes.

Option A: Use a hosted graph (zero-install)

If your docs site already serves graph.json, connect any MCP client with one command — no cloning, no dependencies:

npx -y @litodocs/graph https://docs.example.com/graph.json

Skip to step 5 to wire it into your IDE.

Option B: Build locally

1. Install

cd lito-graph
bun install

2. Build a Graph

Point it at any folder of Markdown files:

lito-graph build -i ./path/to/docs -o ./graph.json

You’ll see output like:

◇  Found 12 nodes, 15 edges
◇  Graph written to graph.json

  Node breakdown:
    api: 3
    concept: 2
    doc: 2
    workflow: 1
    step: 4

3. Inspect the Graph

# Overview stats
lito-graph inspect -g ./graph.json --stats

# List all nodes
lito-graph inspect -g ./graph.json --nodes

# Filter by type
lito-graph inspect -g ./graph.json --type api

# Find broken references
lito-graph inspect -g ./graph.json --unresolved

4. Start the MCP Server

lito-graph serve -g ./graph.json

Or build and serve in one step:

lito-graph serve -i ./path/to/docs

5. Connect to Claude Code

Create .mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lito-graph": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@litodocs/graph", "https://docs.example.com/graph.json"]
    }
  }
}

Start a new Claude Code session. You’ll have access to all 7 graph tools.
