# Search the Claude Code docs
Question to answer: $ARGUMENTS
The `claude-code-docs` MCP server exposes two tools. Used together they let you
answer from the published docs with an exact citation while loading a few dozen
lines into context instead of whole pages.
| Tool | What it is | Use it for |
|------|------------|------------|
| `search_claude_code_docs` | Semantic search, returns page path, anchor, and a content chunk | Locate the right page for a concept or a phrasing you cannot guess |
| `query_docs_filesystem_claude_code_docs` | Stateless read-only shell (`rg`, `grep`, `find`, `ls`, `tree`, `head`, `tail`, `sed`, `awk`, `wc`, `jq`) over a virtual filesystem holding the docs as `.mdx` | Exact keywords, reading a section, dating a change |
## Layout of the virtual filesystem
- One directory per language. English is `/en/`; other languages hold translations of the same pages.
- `/en/<page>.mdx` mirrors `https://code.claude.com/docs/en/<page>`. The SDK pages live under `/en/agent-sdk/`.
- `/en/changelog.mdx` is the full release history. Each version starts with `<Update label="2.1.251" description="August 28, 2026">`, not a markdown heading.
- `/en/whats-new/<year>-w<week>.mdx` are weekly digests that group releases with context and links.
## Workflow
1. Start with `search_claude_code_docs` when you know the concept but not the page. Read the returned paths and anchors; they are your citations. Stop here when a chunk already answers the question.
2. Switch to the
