Claude Code, Codex, and other coding agents still hallucinate library APIs even when you tell them to “read the docs”. They often don’t have the right docs in context, or they rely on hosted/latest-only docs sources. I’m working on **docmancer**, an MIT-licensed, local-first tool (find on GitHub) that fetches and indexes documentation on your machine so coding agents can query it directly. The goal is to become a local, version-aware alternative to tools like Context7. Pull the docs once, query locally, and use audited packs that match your project stack. Docmancer also reduces context bloat by returning only the relevant sections instead of dumping full docs into the prompt, which can cut token usage by up to 80%. No MCP server required. Your coding agents can access docs directly through the CLI. I’d love feedback, issues, PRs, and collaborators, especially around crawlers, registry packs, agent integrations, and the CLI.
