Feb 4, 2026Jess Kuras

Summary
Introduced the Developer Knowledge API and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server as a canonical, machine-readable gateway to Google's official developer documentation. The API allows searching and retrieving documentation pages as Markdown from various Google developer domains (firebase.google.com, developer.android.com, docs.cloud.google.com, etc.) with documentation re-indexed within 24 hours. The MCP server enables AI assistants to safely and easily access this external data, facilitating features like implementation guidance, troubleshooting, and comparative analysis.
