Pindoc MCP Server

Pindoc is a self-hosted project memory system for teams working with AI coding agents. It turns useful agent discoveries into typed artifacts: decisions, debugging paths, task closeouts, verification notes, and code-linked analyses.

People who work with Pindoc and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Go.
