Hint MCP Server

Connect AI coding assistants to Hint’s public developer documentation using the Hint MCP server.

Connect your AI coding assistant to Hint’s public developer documentation through the Hint MCP server.

The Hint MCP server lets MCP-compatible AI tools read public content from developers.hint.com, including guides and API reference documentation. For now, the MCP server is available for public documentation access only and does not require authentication.

Prerequisites

  1. Use an MCP-compatible AI client, such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or another tool that supports remote MCP servers.
  2. Confirm your client supports HTTP-based MCP server URLs.
  3. Restart your AI client after adding or changing MCP configuration.

MCP server URL

Use this URL to connect your AI client to Hint’s public developer documentation:

https://developers.hint.com/mcp

No API key, site password, or authentication header is required.

Configure your AI client

Add the Hint MCP server to your client’s MCP configuration.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hint-docs": {
      "url": "https://developers.hint.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

After saving the configuration, restart your AI client so it can discover the available MCP tools.

What you can do

Once connected, your AI client can use Hint’s public documentation as context while you work. Use it to:

  • search Hint developer guides
  • read public documentation pages
  • inspect public API reference details
  • answer implementation questions using the current docs

The MCP server is intended to help your AI assistant find and explain documentation. It does not grant access to private practice data, partner credentials, or authenticated API operations.

Example prompts

Ask your AI assistant questions like:

Use the Hint MCP server to find documentation about Marketplace integrations.
Search the Hint docs for how authentication works for Practice API requests.
Look up the public API reference details for patient-related endpoints.

Troubleshooting

The Hint tools do not appear in my AI client

Restart your AI client after adding the MCP server. Most clients only discover MCP tools when they start.

The server fails to connect

Verify the MCP URL is exactly:

https://developers.hint.com/mcp

Also confirm your AI client supports remote HTTP MCP servers.

My client asks for authentication

Do not add authentication headers for the Hint MCP server. Public documentation access does not require an API key or password.

The AI assistant cannot access private data

This is expected. The MCP server is currently limited to public documentation and does not expose private practice data or authenticated API access.
