| name | product-docs |
| description | This skill should be used when the user asks to "search product docs", "find a guide", "look up sandbox testing", "check compliance rules", "find payment lifecycle docs", "search Straddle guides", or needs product documentation rather than SDK/API reference. For SDK method signatures, parameters, and code examples, use the search_docs MCP tool directly instead. |
What this searches
Straddle product documentation at docs.straddle.com: payment guides,
sandbox testing, compliance rules, identity verification, webhook
configuration, ACH return handling, and integration patterns.
For SDK and API reference (method signatures, parameters, response
shapes, code examples), use the search_docs MCP tool instead. That
tool is registered automatically and does not need this skill.
How to search
POST to the docs endpoint directly. No MCP registration or auth required.
curl -s -X POST https://docs.straddle.com/mcp \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"search_straddle_docs","arguments":{"query":"YOUR_QUERY"}},"id":1}'
Parse the SSE response: each result in the content array has text containing Title, Link, and Content fields as HTML-formatted strings.
