Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "staledocs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "staledocs",
        "--mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add staledocs -- npx -y staledocs --mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "staledocs": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "staledocs",
        "--mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "staledocs": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "staledocs",
        "--mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is StaleDocs safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.5.0-beta.2) reached the registry 8 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

StaleDocs

Formerly aidoc.

StaleDocs reads your code, finds public API changes in a pull request, and tells you which documentation sections now describe the old behavior.

Website · GitHub Action setup · Codex plugin

Add to a repository in one file

name: StaleDocs review

on: {pull_request: {types: [opened, synchronize, reopened]}} permissions: {contents: read, pull-requests: write} jobs: review: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps:

uses: actions/checkout@3d3c42e5aac5ba805825da76410c181273ba90b1 with: {fetch-depth: 0}
uses: mr-min-max/staledocs@v0.5.0-beta.2 with: mode: review fail-on: none

What the comment contains

Changed symbols with before and after signatures.
Sections that mention them and were not updated.
breaking-change and docs-stale labels when applicable.

No model, no API key, no writes. It is deterministic AST analysis.

From the terminal

Install the command:

npm install -g staledocs

staledocs review reports documentation impact for a pull request.

staledocs plan prints the affected documentation targets.

staledocs check exits with code 1 when a section mentioning a changed public symbol was not updated, and exits 0 otherwise.

Audit a repository once

staledocs audit lists the package scripts, repository paths, and public class members that your Markdown still mentions but the code no longer has, including AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and the copilot-instructions.md file under .github, the files coding agents read first. It needs no pull request. The command is new in 0.5.0-beta.1.

npm install -g staledocs

staledocs audit

Output on a small fixture repository:

README.md > Usage: member-missing "Client.fetchAll"

README.md > Usage: path-missing "src/core/old.ts" README.md > Usage: script-missing "npm run bulid" (closest: build)

3 findings across 1 Markdown file: script-missing 1, path-missing 1, member-missing 1.

Fix the docs with your assistant

Codex plugin

Start Codex in your Git worktree, then run:

codex plugin marketplace add mr-min-max/staledocs

codex plugin add staledocs@staledocs

In a new session, type $ and pick staledocs:check, staledocs:review, or staledocs:maintain-documentation (or open /skills). Requires Node.js >=22.12.0 and npm/npx. This repository hosts its own plugin marketplace; it is not a listing in OpenAI's plugin directory.

Claude Code plugin

Start Claude Code in your Git worktree, then run:

/plugin marketplace add mr-min-max/staledocs

/plugin install staledocs@staledocs

Use /staledocs:check for drift signals, /staledocs:review for the PR report, or /staledocs:maintain-documentation for a validated draft. Requires Node.js >=22.12.0 and npm/npx. This repository hosts its own plugin marketplace; it is not an approved Anthropic directory listing.

Manual MCP

codex mcp add staledocs -- staledocs --mcp

prepare_documentation_update gives the assistant the exact sections and before and after signatures.

StaleDocs validates the candidate, and the assistant applies the approved Markdown.

See the Codex guide and Claude guide.

Languages

TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python are supported. A public symbol is one reachable from the package entry; see LIMITATIONS.md for syntax and discovery caveats.

Legacy generators

readme, api, changelog, diagram, and annotate remain available for initial documentation. They need a provider key or Ollama and are not the focus of StaleDocs. See the CLI catalogue.

Status and links

StaleDocs 0.5.0-beta.2 is the current release. npm latest, npm beta, and the GitHub Action v0 tag point to the current release, and the official MCP Registry lists it as io.github.mr-min-max/staledocs.
