Other MCP-Compatible Clients

If your AI client supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP):

  1. Add a new MCP server connection
  2. Use the server URL: https://docs-mcp.latence.ca
  3. Protocol: HTTPS
  4. Authentication: None (or use the auto-approve OAuth flow if prompted)

For command-line or programmatic access, you can use the mcp-remote bridge:

npx -y mcp-remote https://docs-mcp.latence.ca

Available Capabilities

Once connected, the documentation assistant provides three main functions:

  1. Browse Documentation Structure - View the complete table of contents
  2. Search Documentation - Find pages by keyword or topic
  3. Read Documentation Pages - Retrieve full page content in a readable format

Example Questions

Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant questions like:

  • "How do I configure the Traffic Shaper?"
  • "What are the hardware requirements for LatenceTech?"
  • "Search the docs for offline installation instructions"
  • "Explain how the dashboard widgets work"
  • "Show me the documentation structure"

Your AI will automatically search and read the relevant documentation pages to provide accurate, up-to-date answers.

Troubleshooting

Connection won't establish: - Verify you've entered the URL exactly: https://docs-mcp.latence.ca - Ensure your client supports MCP over HTTPS - Try refreshing and reconnecting

AI assistant doesn't see the connector: - Check that your configuration syntax is correct - Restart your AI application completely - Verify MCP support is enabled in your client
