## What is Catenary?
Catenary bridges [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) (Model Context
Protocol) and [LSP](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/)
(Language Server Protocol), giving AI assistants like Claude access to real IDE
features: hover docs, go-to-definition, find references, diagnostics,
completions, rename, and more.
## Getting Started
```bash
# 1. Install Catenary
cargo install catenary-mcp
# 2. Create a config file
mkdir -p ~/.config/catenary
# See the Configuration page for details
# 3. Add to your MCP client (e.g., Claude Code)
claude mcp add catenary -- catenary
```
Then check the [LSP Servers](lsp/README.md) page to set up language servers for your stack.
