Notes and caveats
- The README presents one hosted mcpServers JSON block for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor and VS Code; the docs page gives per-client hosted snippets, including VS Code (servers key) and Codex.
- Exposes reference resources (API reference, SDK docs, style layers, Streets v8 fields, token scopes).
- Searches Mapbox documentation only.
- The README mentions docker pull mapbox/mcp-docs-server, but no such image exists on Docker Hub at check time.
