Getting Started

Install mandex and start searching docs in under a minute

Install

curl -fsSL https://mandex.dev/install.sh | sh

This downloads the mx binary to ~/.local/bin, sets up your PATH, and runs mx init to configure AI tool integrations.

Setup

mx init auto-detects which AI coding tools you have installed and offers to configure them:

$ mx init

  ███╗   ███╗ █████╗ ███╗   ██╗██████╗ ███████╗██╗  ██╗
  ...

  ◇  Detected tools ──────────

Pull a package and search it:

mx pull fastapi@0.115.0
mx search fastapi "dependency injection"

Sync project dependencies

In any project directory, run:

mx sync

This reads package.json, requirements.txt, Cargo.toml, and other dependency files, then pulls docs for every detected dependency.
