Nate 4762623549 docs: fix title case in documentation headers
Standardize header capitalization across documentation to follow
title case conventions (capitalize major words like nouns, verbs,
adjectives; keep minor words lowercase).

Changes include:
- Model provider docs: "Chat model" → "Chat Model", etc.
- Plan mode docs: "Understanding Plan mode" → "Understanding Plan Mode"
- CLI docs: "Quick start" → "Quick Start", "Next steps" → "Next Steps"
- Guide docs: various headers fixed for consistency
- Also fixed typo: "Availible models" → "Available Models"

title: Continue Documentation MCP Server
description: Set up an MCP server to search Continue documentation
keywords: [mcp, documentation, search, mintlify, reference]
---
The Continue Documentation MCP Server allows you to search and retrieve information from the Continue documentation directly within your agent conversations.
## Set Up
### Configure Continue
1. Create a folder called `.continue/mcpServers` at the top level of your workspace
2. Add a file called `continue-docs-mcp.yaml` to this folder
3. Write the following contents and save:
```yaml title=".continue/mcpServers/continue-docs-mcp.yaml"
name: Continue Documentation MCP
version: 0.0.1
schema: v1
mcpServers:
- uses: continuedev/continue-docs-mcp
```
### Enable Agent Mode
MCP servers only work in agent mode. Make sure to switch to agent mode in Continue before testing.
## Usage Examples
Once configured, you can use the MCP server to search Continue documentation:
### Model Configuration Help
```
How do I add Claude 4 Sonnet as a model from Bedrock in Continue?
```
### Context Providers
```
What context providers are available in Continue?
```
### Customization
```
How do I add custom rules to my configuration in Continue?
```
## Troubleshooting
### MCP Server Not Loading
1. **Check configuration**: Ensure your YAML configuration uses the correct `uses` field with `continuedev/continue-docs-mcp`
2. **Check agent mode**: MCP servers only work in agent mode
3. **Restart Continue**: Try restarting the Continue extension
### No Search Results
1. **Verify connection**: The MCP server needs internet access to search the documentation
2. **Check query format**: Try rephrasing your search query
3. **Test with known topics**: Search for well-documented features like "model configuration"
