Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Canopy documentation every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 5

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

api

search_api

Search the published OpenAPI documents by words from the task or the resource. Returns method, path, operation id, and the reference page for each match. Reference pages live at /docs/api-reference/{operationId}; never guess those URLs.

explain

explain_capability

What a capability such as env_roles.manage or billing.manage lets someone do, and which pages it opens. The answer to "why can't I see this button": a page shows only for someone holding one of its listed capabilities, and its write actions only for the matching manage capability.

guide

get_guide

A docs page as markdown: for a dashboard guide, the menu path, the exact controls to click in order, and the reasons a control may be missing. Pass the guide URL or path from find_surface or list_surfaces, or a surface id such as console.roles.

surface

find_surface

Given what someone wants to do ("rotate a webhook secret", "invite an administrator", "why can't I see Hierarchy"), return the pages where it happens, ranked, each with its menu path, the capability that opens it, and its guide.

surfaces

list_surfaces

Every left-nav page of both signed-in applications: the application, the menu path in the labels on screen, the capability that opens it, what must be selected first, and the guide that walks through it. The same data as /ai/ui-map.json.

Canopy documentation — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Canopy documentation do?

It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: explain_capability, find_surface, get_guide, list_surfaces, search_api. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Canopy documentation working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 66 of 66 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 305 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Canopy documentation?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Canopy documentation need an API key?

No. Canopy documentation completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Canopy documentation?

It answers our handshake in 305 ms on average, which is faster than 46% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
