Query the OpenAI developer documentation via the OpenAI Docs MCP server using CLI (curl/jq). Use whenever a task involves the OpenAI API (Responses, Chat Completions, Realtime, etc.), OpenAI SDKs, ChatGPT Apps SDK, Codex, MCP integrations, endpoint schemas, parameters, limits, or migrations and you need up-to-date official guidance.

OpenAI Docs MCP Skill
Overview
Use the OpenAI developer documentation MCP server from the shell to search and fetch authoritative docs. Always do this for OpenAI platform work instead of relying on memory or non-official sources.
Core rules
- Always use this skill for OpenAI API/SDK/Apps/Codex questions or when precise, current docs are required.
- Query the MCP server via the CLI wrapper in
scripts/openai-docs-mcp.sh(do not rely on Codex MCP tools). - Use
searchorlistto find the best doc page, thenfetchthe page (or anchor) for exact text. - Surface the doc URL you used in your response so sources are clear.
Quick start
scripts/openai-docs-mcp.sh search "Responses API" 5
scripts/openai-docs-mcp.sh fetch https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/migrate-to-responses
Workflow
- Discover:
searchwith a focused query. If unsure, uselistto browse. - Read:
fetchthe most relevant URL (optionally add an anchor). - Apply: summarize and/or quote relevant sections; include the URL.
Script reference
The CLI wrapper is at scripts/openai-docs-mcp.sh and uses curl + jq against https://developers.openai.com/mcp.
