## Description

This MCP server provides AI assistants with access to React hooks from the usehooks.io repository, built by Olivier Colonna using Node.js with the Model Context Protocol SDK and featuring four specialized tools for browsing, searching, and retrieving detailed hook implementations with code examples. The implementation offers efficient caching with 5-minute TTL for improved performance, flexible output formatting in JSON or Markdown, comprehensive hook discovery through category filtering and keyword search, and complete hook details including TypeScript implementation code and usage examples. Built with robust error handling, normalized hook name processing, and published as an npm package with global CLI support, it serves React developers needing conversational access to curated hook libraries, AI assistants requiring structured access to React patterns, and development teams where natural language interfaces enhance code discovery without manual repository browsing.
