# Agents & Automation

> How to access machine-readable docs and API artifacts for developers, IDEs, and automation - llms.txt, OpenAPI, Agent Skills, and MCP.

**How do I point my agent, IDE, or automation at Tavus’s documentation and HTTP APIs?** This guide helps you pick the right artifact for your workflow.

<Note>
  **For AI agents:** The MCP endpoint documented on this page (`https://docs.tavus.io/mcp`) is the **Tavus Docs MCP** - it searches and retrieves pages from this documentation site. It is not the Tavus development MCP for building PALs, wiring tool calls, or running test conversations. For that toolkit, see [Tavus MCP & CLI](/sections/agent-tools/overview).
</Note>

## Documentation bundle reference

| Artifact | Role | URL |
| - | - | - |
| **llms.txt** | Curated directory of doc URLs for selective fetch | `https://docs.tavus.io/llms.txt` |
| **llms-full.txt** | Full bundled text export for offline or bulk ingest | `https://docs.tavus.io/llms-full.txt` |
| **openapi.yaml** | HTTP API contract (paths, request/response schemas, security schemes) | `https://docs.tavus.io/openapi.yaml` |
| **skill.md** | Agent-oriented capability summary ([Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io) conventions) | `https://docs.tavus.io/skill.md` |
| **Tavus Docs MCP** | Hosted Model Context Protocol server for this docs site: search plus fetch full pages from the indexed documentation (see [Tavus Docs MCP](#tavus-docs-mcp)) | `https://docs.tavus.io/mcp` |

## When to use what

* **Tavus Docs MCP:** Interactive tools that need live search and current page retrieval against the indexed documentation site.
* **llms-full.txt:** Bulk or offline ingestion; snapshot of doc text (not a substitute for OpenAPI).
* **openapi.yaml:** Source of truth for HTTP APIs (requests, responses, auth headers); agents should not invent endpoints that contradict it.
* **llms.txt / selective fetches:** Discovery and pulling specific pages when you do not want the full bundle.
* **skill.md:** Compact capability orientation for agents; still point to OpenAPI and deep docs for details.

## Tavus Docs MCP

An MCP endpoint is available for this documentation site - not for building PALs or testing Tavus API tool calls; for that, use [Tavus MCP & CLI](/sections/agent-tools/overview). Configure docs MCP clients that support HTTP transport with:

```json theme={null}
{
  "url": "https://docs.tavus.io/mcp",
  "transport": "http"
}
```

Use MCP when the tool needs **live** search and retrieval against the **current** indexed documentation, not a frozen file export.
