ReadMe Dashboard integration
ReadMe is an API documentation platform that helps teams create beautiful, interactive documentation. Build developer hubs with API references, guides, changelog, and metrics.

What you can do with ReadMe Dashboard
Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.
Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Use ReadMe Dashboard from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex
Connect ReadMe Dashboard in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its ReadMe Dashboard operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"
[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"{
"mcpServers": {
"livecontext": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
"headers": {
"X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"
}
}
}

- Create your workspace
Sign up free. Nothing to install.
- Connect ReadMe Dashboard once
Add your ReadMe Dashboard connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.
- Describe the job in chat
The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
