Overview

What is GenCodeDoc?

GenCodeDoc is a smart documentation generator and intelligent versioning system with full Model Context Protocol (MCP) support. It creates snapshots of codebases, generates Markdown documentation, and exposes its functionality through MCP for use by AI assistants like Claude and Gemini. It is designed for developers who need automated version tracking and documentation generation.

How to use GenCodeDoc?

Install GenCodeDoc via Poetry, then initialize a project with poetry run gencodedoc init --preset python. Create snapshots with poetry run gencodedoc snapshot create -m "Initial version", generate documentation with poetry run gencodedoc doc generate --limit 5000, and configure MCP integration by setting up the appropriate transport (stdio, SSE, or REST) in your AI assistant’s settings.
