From the README

Claude Code Documentation Tool

Website: costiash.github.io/claude-code-docs — live index stats, try the search in your browser, and watch a grounded hook build step by step.

Every official Claude doc page, always live, never redistributed. Every page across platform.claude.com and code.claude.com, re-indexed every 3 hours — and your Claude reads the actual current page, not a stale copy or a guess from training data.

Two commands. No Python, no MCP server, no API keys — the client is pure bash + curl + jq.

The Architecture Nobody Else Uses

Most documentation tools pick one of two designs: mirror the docs into a repo (instantly stale between syncs, redistributes content that isn't theirs, ~100 MB clones) or serve them through an MCP server (another process to run, network round-trips per query, answers that flood your context window).

This tool does neither. The repository commits only metadata — a page manifest and a prose-free search index, about 3 MB total. Your machine fetches each .md page directly from Anthropic's servers, on demand, into a local cache. Claude searches the index first and reads only the pages it needs.

The compliance point is not a footnote: this repo contains zero documentation prose — not at the tip, not anywhere in its history. What you install is a map; the territory always comes fresh from Anthropic.

What You Get

- Auto-discovery — ask anything about Claude Code, the API, SDKs, or prompt engineering and Claude reads the relevant docs before answering. No prefix, no command. This is the feature you'll forget is running — your answers are just correct.
- /docs skill — explicit lookups when you want them: /docs hooks, /docs extended thinking, /docs Agent SDK sessions
- Interactive Courses — turn any topic into a self-contained animated…
