# Go Documentation

> Use this tool when you need to retrieve Go language documentation or search for specific packages, as it provides detailed information on constants, types, functions, and variables from pkg.go.dev. It solves problems of manual documentation lookup and coding interruptions by integrating documentation search and retrieval into AI interfaces. The tool accepts queries and package names as inputs and returns relevant documentation as output, making it ideal for use during coding sessions.

## Description

Godoc-mcp-server is a Go-based MCP server that enables AI assistants to search for and retrieve documentation from pkg.go.dev. Developed by yikakia, this implementation provides two main tools: searchPackages for finding Go packages based on queries, and getPackageInfo for retrieving detailed documentation including constants, types, functions, and variables from specific packages. The server uses goquery for HTML parsing and the resty HTTP client to interact with the pkg.go.dev website, making it particularly useful for developers seeking Go language documentation assistance during coding sessions without leaving their AI interface.
