MCP

The Root Bind API Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables AI-powered code editors like Cursor and Windsurf, plus general-purpose tools like Claude Desktop, to interact directly with your Root Bind API API and documentation.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI applications to securely access external data sources and tools. The Root Bind API MCP server provides AI agents with:

  • Direct API access to Root Bind API functionality
  • Documentation search capabilities
  • Real-time data from your Root Bind API account
  • Code generation assistance for Root Bind API integrations

Root Bind API MCP Server Setup

Root Bind API hosts a remote MCP server at https://root-bind-api.readme.io/mcp. Configure your AI development tools to connect to this server. If your APIs require authentication, you can pass in headers via query parameters or however headers are configured in your MCP client.

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "root-bind-api": {
      "url": "https://root-bind-api.readme.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Testing Your MCP Setup

Once configured, you can test your MCP server connection:

  1. Open your AI editor (Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
  2. Start a new chat with the AI assistant
  3. Ask about Root Bind API - try questions like:
    • "How do I [common use case]?"
    • "Show me an example of [API functionality]"
    • "Create a [integration type] using Root Bind API"

The AI should now have access to your Root Bind API account data and documentation through the MCP server.
