About docmd

docmd is an open source documentation compiler hosted on GitHub. It takes a folder of Markdown files and builds a static documentation website with generated navigation, offline full-text search, SEO metadata, and machine-readable outputs such as llms.txt, Open Knowledge Format bundles, and an MCP interface for compatible AI agents. It can also produce agent skills and AI Assistant context. Local use requires Node.js 20+, or Docker can be used instead. Pricing is not stated in the source, and an optional Cloud Relay is mentioned for connecting the AI Assistant when documentation is deployed as a static site.
