What is the documentation MCP Server?
The watsonx Orchestrate Documentation MCP Server acts as a second standalone MCP server that exposes a tool for searching watsonx Orchestrate documentation.
This feature becomes powerful when you combine it with the main watsonx Orchestrate MCP server and an MCP Client
With this setup, agentic MCP clients check documentation to learn up-to-date information about resource types, spec file structure, and other idiosyncrasies of the watsonx Orchestrate platform.
