Yes, the Maven plugin supports Lombok annotations via a delombok process; configuration details are in the plugin’s README.
How can I test the MCP server?
Use the `mcp inspector` tool: run `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx -y @io.emop/mcp-javadoc-server -- --javadoc-path /path/to/javadoc-json`.
Are there any transport or authentication requirements?
The README does not specify transports or authentication; the server expects a local file path for JSON data and is designed for use with MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop.
